5 Leading Hotels and resorts where you should spend a vacation with children

The distinctive feature of The Leading Hotels of the World is attention to detail, the creation of vivid impressions, and a personalized approach to each guest, regardless of their age. That is why almost every hotel in the association offers exceptional services for little travelers and family leisure: from welcome compliments and surprises, children's robes and slippers, to developmental and educational activities and spa treatments that allow little ones to feel all grown up.
Carefree relaxation for children (and their parents!) is offered by the Swiss resort Kulm Hotel St. Moritz. The hotel team does everything possible to ensure that guests of all ages enjoy every moment of their stay. Specifically for little guests aged 3 to 12, the hotel features a free children's club, Marmotta Kids Club. Here, there are plenty of opportunities for creativity and development: pizza-making and non-alcoholic cocktail workshops, handicrafts, active games, and ice skating during the winter season. Additionally, there is a Very Important Kids program for young guests, where children can attend free skiing or snowboarding lessons, group tennis lessons, utilize skate rentals, and receive gifts and surprises upon arrival at the hotel and during their stay.


The children's club at the famous Spanish resort Marbella Club Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa occupies a picturesque historical estate of its first owner, Prince Alfonso. On the grounds of 5000 sq. m, where famous guests, including Audrey Hepburn, vacationed in the 1960s, a unique interactive and educational environment for children aged 4 to 14 has been created. Throughout the year, there is a dance studio, a music hall, a library, art and pottery workshops, a kitchen, a mini-garden, and entertainment areas. For guests with children under 5 years old, from September to June, the hotel offers a special Tiny Tots Programme. This program includes 4 nights of accommodation in one of the hotel villas or a suite, airport transfer to the hotel, complimentary nanny services for two hours a day, and much more. Upon arrival at the hotel, little guests are welcomed with gifts, including personalized children's towels and t-shirts, toys, and coloring books. Parents can also make use of the smart Tick Tock Turtle Clocks alarm clock, which tracks sleep phases to wake the child at the most comfortable time.


Excellent conditions for a family vacation are offered by another Mediterranean hotel from Leading Hotels — Sun Gardens Dubrovnik. Here, there are as many as five children's clubs for young guests of all ages. The Explorers Mini Club (for ages 3 to 6) and Junior Club Navigators (for ages 7 to 11) invite children to participate in morning and daytime programs, as well as themed evening adventure events: go on a treasure hunt with pirates or dive into the action of a fairy tale about knights and princesses. During Meet & Greet events, children can meet characters from their favorite cartoons and take photos with a princess or superhero. For little ones aged 9 months to 3 years, the resort features the Discoverers Baby Club, and for teenagers, there are two more clubs and a summer sports academy where they can engage in football, tennis, basketball, or water polo.


On the other hand, the Portuguese resort VILA VITA Parc Resort & Spa offers a family vacation concept. A joint vacation is a time that will remain in children's memories forever. To create vivid impressions, the hotel features a program of events suitable for guests of all ages — from exploring the lives of marine creatures together to family yoga practices. Additionally, from April 1 to October 31, there is a special offer for families with children — Family Fun. The program includes 4 nights of half-board accommodation, a pizza-making masterclass, a visit to the Zoomarine water park or Slide & Splash Water Park, as well as compliments for adults and children upon arrival at the hotel.


Located in the heart of the Swiss Alps, in the village of Villars-sur-Ollon, Chalet Royalp Hôtel & Spa, like any ski hotel, offers extensive options for the relaxation of young guests — from a kids' club and nanny services to a teen game room and a private cinema. Little ones can feel grown up at the hotel's spa, where a series of spa treatments using the products of the first French biodermatological brand TOOFRUIT has been specially developed for children aged 6 to 12.
