Our Experience

We often went to D’Aria to sit down at their lovely wine tasting room and enjoy yummy cheese platters with their incredible wines. The kid’s venue is a lovely bonus and the kids enjoyed playing there a lot! The facilities are great and the play area is really big with a lot of different apparatus to play with. Since our children are still young and under the age of 5, we needed to stay with them at CU Kids to supervise them. In the play area itself, they serve a delicious reduced menu of the restaurant as well as selected alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. You have to pay an entrance fee per child in order for them to play there, but there is no time limit attached to it and you can stay as long as you want during their opening times.
