Better kid activities at Marriott Cypress Harbor or Grande Vista?

[utahkennedys]

For our second week after DVC and Cruise I have the option of either Marriott Cypress Harbour or Grande Vista. We have stayed at both but never had time to do activities at the resort. Which would have better choices for an 11 yo and 7 yo (girls)? We plan to have more time to relax but it would be nice if they had some fun crafts or activities for kids. Harbour Lake is also an option but it just doesn't look as "nice" inside somehow?

I've stayed at both. I would say Cypress harbor because they have the dedicated kids activity area and it is more family oriented. i think GV has the large golf tie-in. So much to do at CH. I know you have girls but my son's favorite was the remote control car building and racing. The boat rentals for the pond were lots of fun as was the small mini-golf for kids. They had the beach with fishing and the three wheel bike rentals. The activity center always had some kind of event going on. My kids even enjoyed the boat rides over the pond between the activity center and the main pool.

Perfect, thanks! That is exactly what I was hoping for!
