You’ve been planning a family vacation for a while now but selecting the right holiday resort has flummoxed you? Where you stay when on vacation is important and it becomes more so if you have children in tow. A lot of holiday centers claim to be family-friendly. However, before you finally hit the ‘book’ button, remember to ask these questions.
When on quest for a child-friendly resort, ask –
1. Does the resort have something to entertain my kids?
Scenic view or comfortable beds might excite you and your spouse, but the kids? Umm, maybe not! A family resort should have something for everyone but holiday activities for kids are priority. You don’t want to end up engaging them throughout your holiday, right? Here’s what you should look for:
2. Does the resort have restaurants that cater to my family’s food needs?
Meals with kids, when on a holiday, can turn nightmarish! Not all restaurants can prepare your kids’ favourite food, the way they like it. At times, the hygiene and quality of the food is also questionable. And what if the resort is not equipped to serve milk for your screaming toddler at an odd hour? Here’s what you must ensure:
3. Is the resort staff child-friendly?
You would definitely expect the hotel staff to be warm and amenable when you’re holidaying with family. Kids tend to be their unruly best on vacation and if the staff is not child-friendly, your holiday experience could turn sour.
4. Do the rooms have amenities that are family-friendly?
Room amenities matter a lot with kids in the holiday picture! The room absolutely needs to be kid friendly.
5. Can the resort help me with sightseeing?
Most resorts are far from the city but if you want to go exploring, your resort must be able to help you.
Make the most of your family holiday, as memories are for life.
