The Allen House is an excellent apartment in London for a family in a super neighborhood. Our family of 5 were extremely comfortable in the 2 bedroom flat we rented in this building. It's a secure building, located less than one block from Kensington Street and 1 1/2 blocks from the Kensington High Street tube station and the super easy double decker bus system. There are 2 gourmet grocery stores within walking distance and nice neighborhood restaurants. The apartment was very comfortable, clean, spacious, and accommodating for our family. |

Location is fantastic, right around the corner from Piazza San Marco. There is shopping and tourist attractions all around. We stayed in the Penthouse Suite and loved our private rooftop terrace.

Family-run with a warm, comfortable atmosphere. The staff is helpful and guests are very well cared for here. Although horseback riding is the main activity and better suited for school age kids, the location of the ranch is excellent with access to Santa Barbara, the zoo, and the beach. We still had fun with toddlers. Family-style meals in the dining room made feeding the kids relaxing and easy. |

This upscale "camping" resort is great for families who want to experience the natural beauty of the California coast without the effort of really roughing it. El Capitan has something for everyone -- easy or challenging hikes into the foothills, a walk to one of the most striking beaches in California, a pool and playground, llamas, horses, bike riding -- it really can't be beat. You can stay in a safari tent equipped with comfortable beds with luxurious bed linens, down comforters, and daily maid service. Or, you can opt for a cabin with small kitchen and plenty of sleeping options. We loved the fact that resort staff will drop off firewood and fire starters to make it easy to build a campfire for s'mores. There's also a great snack bar and gift shop with delicious breakfasts. We stayed during Thanksgiving when they offered to cater our holiday meal and deliver it to our cabin. Not only was the food delicious but they included lovely table decorations to make our Thanksgiving very elegant in an outdoor setting. El Capitan is a delightful family alternative to the fancier resorts of Santa Barbara and a great outdoor experience. |

We really enjoyed this property. Rented a condo which held my wife and I, our 3 kids, my sister in law, nephew, and in-laws (total of 9). Had direct access to the big lagoon pool, short walk to beach, and had a plunge pool in patio. My kids thought that the plunge pool was the highlight of the trip. |

 |  |  | location: city standard: upscale style: traditional cb! age rating: baby ready, toddler fun, school age action, cool for teens
The hotel is beautifully situated overlooking the Lower Village and the St. Lawrence River. It is in the center of town so everything is close, including the glass funicular which the kids love to ride. In the winter, there is a toboggan ride next to the hotel which the older kids loved. The rooms are well designed, charming and spacious. With the cribs they deliver items to child-proof the room. The indoor hotel pool is sun-filled and perfect for adults and kids alike. The wonderful buffet breakfast with chocolate croissants, crepes and various treats was a highlight for my children. The service was impeccable.
As a side trip we went to the Ice Hotel (do NOT stay there...we did and it was extreme camping at best with -10 temperatures at night. I thought my kids were going to get hypothermia). The design was incredible and there is an ice slide which is very entertaining. That village has wonderful adventure sports like dog-sledding, cross country skiing, snow mobiling, etc. There is a water park that they turn into a sledding park all winter which was incredible. This made Quebec a perfect (non-flying) destination for my family in February. Be sure to bring your warmest clothes!

Casitas are stylish and offer generous space for families. Bathrooms are roomy and nicely appointed. A large balcony provides views of the lagoon and/or resort. Several pools to choose from along with activities for the children at the kid's club. Beach is clean and well-maintained. Water is turquoise/blue. Golf carts and boat rides make for easy transport throughout this rather large resort. Several restaurants to choose from although our experience was that the lunch options were better than the dinner selections. Close proximity to town (10 minute drive, $15 cab ride) makes this resort seem remote and serene, while easily accessible to the restaurants, bars, and cafes of Playa del Carmen. Excellent service throughout the resort. Try and select an upgraded room (Casita or Casita Suite). |

Great jumping off point for Costa Rica. The kids loved this small, eco-inn with its natural pool and huge bathrooms. It has interesting artwork and a unique character and the staff was WONDERFUL with the children. |

A large resort hotel with the typically exceptional Four Seasons style and level of service.
We've found the Aviara to be particularly child-friendly.
When we arrived, the room was fully child-proofed, including bumpers on all furniture with sharp corners, and our son's name was spelled out in the bathtub with little sponge letters.
The breakfast buffet includes a second buffet that is child height with child-friendly foods and a dedicated server. Finn (30 months at the time) thought this was very cool! |

 |  |  | location: lake standard: luxurious style: old world cb! age rating: baby ready, toddler fun, school age action
We loved the "floating" swimming pool in Lake Como and beach. This property has old-world elegance and grandeur with beautiful public areas. Our family enjoyed short walks and hikes though property grounds and paths. The property is in a good location - a short walk to the ferry stop in Tremezzo and local restaurants. This hotel is a great place for a family to relax for a few days.

Set in the gorgeous Val d'Orcia, in close proximity to the wonderful hilltop towns of Pienza, Montalcino, and Montepulciano, Adler-Thermae is a thermal spa resort that combines Zen sensibilities with Tuscan charm and hospitality. The therapeutic thermal spa amenities added a whole new level of relaxation to our family vacation. In addition to the beautiful regular pool, which includes a circular "rapids" area, there is a second pool with therapeutic thermal water pumped in from the local hot springs. Glorious Tuscan herbal saunas are included in the room price. Other spa treatments are extra, such as couples mud treatments, a Dead Sea grotto, massage, facials, etc. The resort offers daily Yoga, exercise classes and even mountain biking and hiking through the Tuscan hills. Excursions to wineries are offered, as well as evening "tastings" in the bar. The food is great and abundant. A brilliant concept of this property is the inclusion of a phenomenal kids program which provides children their own spa experience as well as swimming, sports. yoga, crafts, drama, hiking, baking, and field trips to the thermal hot springs and a local cheese farm. There is also a teens' club and babysitting for infants and toddlers. My 3 month old loved her own spa treatment: an infant massage and bath in milk and honey. My school aged kids loved that they got to make friends with children from all over Europe. In the evenings the children could have supervised dinner and a movie while the grown-ups had an elegant dinner. All were blissfully happy. |

Small, family-run hotel in the Castello area of Venice. This location is not as touristy as other areas and a 10-minute walk from the popular activities and sights. The property is quiet on a small side street - a bit hard to find the first time you look for it, but otherwise this hotel is a great value for Venice. |

Luxury in every sense, from super-comfy bedding to dark chocolates at turndown. Great location and a warm feeling. We had a corner suite. The parents' bedroom not only felt like a spa with its warm tones and plush linens, but it was set up in just the right way with the sleeping area for the kids on a pull-out sofa in the living room. The bathroom was also configured to be very private so that nobody (kids or adults) would wake the others when using it in the middle of the night. |

The resort also has a kids club where you can drop your child for camp-like fun for a half or whole day. There are kids everywhere here so it is comfortable and relaxing. There is a huge lawn that is perfect for frisbee and running around. |

We stayed in "The Pig Sty" a converted pig sty which is now a luxe and GORGEOUS family suite. a sliding door gives parents privacy and it is perfect for putting the children to sleep and enjoying late dinners with other guests or a private drink under the stars. The infinity swimming pool is among the most stunning I've ever seen. The meals are varied and elegant and unforgettable.

Small wooden huts with thatched roofs in a jungle setting. Ceiling fans and indoor plumbing and a light. Two double beds on wooden frames, very comfortable mattresses. Lighted pathways that lead to the open air dining room. All meals are communal but not family style.
Property has lush vegetation, and paths that lead into the jungle where you can see and hear howler monkeys, beautiful birds and wonderful Mayan ruins. It is very civilized but kids can still swing on vines and feel like Tarzan! You are also allowed to climb some of the ruins which was great for all. The views were beautiful.
Lamanai is rustic but upscale for anyone who wants a "jungle experience". |
