I'm just wondering. Never been and have visitors who'd like to go. Can you just go and visit the hotel?? Or do they stop you coming in unless you have a reservation or some such? If you can't just walk in off the street, what's the best way to visit with a toddler? I mean, we don't want to go for dinner or anything like that. Can we just go and have a coffee somewhere?
Thanks.

Either an afternoon tea or a drinks package is the best option... have a look on their website and you can email them any questions.

If you have a booking at one of the restaurants they will have your name at the gate and you will be let in. I think its a minimum of 200dhs spend per person though. Then again, at those prices, thats 2 cocktails :)

The only time I've ever been in there, I just drove up to the gate and told the security guy I was there to pick up my daughter who was swimming with friends. Just drove on up, the valet was going to take my car but I said I wouldn't be long and he showed me to a parking space and I wandered in and got my daughter. Drove home, no worries at all.

You can't just wander in. To get through the gate security will check you have a reservation. I'm not sure what the cheapest option is.
