It’s not too late for family travelers to switch things up and spend the holidays in a new and exciting location at an equally exciting resort. These three hotels offer fun winter experiences, luxury accommodations and holiday cheer.

 

Six Senses Laamu and Six Senses Kanuhura

The festive season is an exciting time to visit Six Senses Laamu and Six Senses Kanuhura in the Maldives. Spend Christmas in paradise at Six Senses Laamu, the only 5-star resort in Laamu Atoll. The property is surrounded by crystal-clear waters and some of the best beaches in the world. At Six Senses Kanuhara, expect a Christmas like no other. Six Senses Kanuhura has a fun Kids Club, offering everything from gingerbread cookie decorating to holiday pajama parties. This holiday season, Six Senses Laamu hosts underwater holiday scavenger hunts. Each resort also features a special Christmas meal. Additionally, make sure to take advantage of other activities like dolphin cruises, sandbank picnics, guided house reef snorkels with marine biologists and coral restoration workshops.

 

Six Senses Crans-Montana

Six Senses Crans-Montana is the perfect place to spend the holidays, surrounded by the beauty of the Swiss Alps and where families can spend days skiing, enjoying delicious cuisine, exploring the local town and relaxing at the spa. This holiday season, enjoy a beautiful Christmas tree in a room or suite. Christmas trees can also come undecorated — offering a chance for families to create their own festive memories when decorating. With the resort’s Grow with Six Senses program, little travelers can take part in fun seasonal activities such as snowman building, joining Charlotte’s Treasure Hunt with the resort’s beloved mascot, creating winter candles and much more.
