Relaxen oder aktiv sein - diese Frage stellt sich im Ana Mandara Villas Dalat zu keiner Zeit. Denn hier wird für alle Ansprüche etwas geboten. General Manager Craig Douglas und sein Team haben ihrem internationalen Publikum einen bunten *Angebotsstrauß* gebunden. Wer eine Gangart höher schalten möchte kann sich beim Golfen (Palace Golf Club), Wandern, Rock Climbing und Mountain biking sportlich betätigen und natürlich finden auch „Adrenalin Junkies" beim Canyoning ihre Herausforderung.
Is there anyone out there who is good with metaphors? What would be a good English translation of this? It does not have to be literal, and a little creative freedom is permitted, I would just like it to have the same general meaning as the original. Thanks in advance!!!!

a broad palette of activities
The notion of ‘bunt’ is contained within ‘palette’.
‘Angebot’ is normally ‘package’ or ‘deal’ in a marketing text

You could even get away with a literal translation here: 'bouquet'.
