not the first time these kind of thing happened so many times better get all the hotels a full time employers to monitor the pool 247 even at night as some children might fall at night time or they can put protected fences via DM Android App

Sad situation, hotels can do only so much, parents must be more responsible, kids can't be let out of sight especially near water.
