Haven't been, believe it or not!
Most people say that about 4 days is good in terms of how long you need to see/do things, although obviously it's a pretty place, so you could stay longer if you just want to chill somewhere with a nice view.
I think 4 days is plenty. When we went they only had a few flights per week so I think we had no choice but to go for that timeframe. Explora is a very nice resort.
Also I think a lot has changed since I was there, but other than exploring the ruins there didnt seem to be a ton of kid stuff, swimming and exploring. But I was there pre kids so it could be different!

Explora is supposed to be amazing and is all inclusive including tours with the absolute best guides, but it's also like $1000/night (not exaggerating). Most of the hotels are pretty expensive, although none are quite that much! If you want a luxury experience, then one of the hotels will be lovely, but most people who just want to go there without breaking the bank look for guest houses that are nothing fancy but perfectly comfortable. I don't have any specific recs, sorry, just giving you an idea of the two extremes - no point spending time looking for a reasonably-priced resort because it doesn't exist.
