Hotel with heavy theming or not?

I used to think theming was important until we stayed at Swan, on that trip I realized location was even more important! We made the "mistake" of surprising our girls with a trip to AKL. They love animals and beg to stay there every trip. It is a little removed, but they love it and we've grown to enjoy it as well. The older we get the more we enjoy an escape when we leave a park and Kidani Village is so peaceful. The theming is gorgeous!! Our oldest was recently married and they are talking about starting a family...when that happens, I'll probably return to the values (at least for a few nights) because the theming is great with little ones.
