Four Seasons Resorts and Hotels

From luxury accommodations in the “Happiest Place on Earth” to the Windy City, Four Seasons boast a wide variety of special amenities for the little ones.

 

Beginning in the most family-friendly place on earth, Four Seasons Resort Orlando treats kids like the tooth fairy would with a team delivering a “tooth fairy amenity” to any child who loses a tooth on the trip. Parents simply alert the tooth fairy team and your child will find a case to place the baby tooth for safekeeping, sweets and takeaways.

 

Families traveling to Boston enjoy Four Seasons Hotel’s complimentary cookie-making classes. Head to the Pastry Shop on Saturday afternoon for a guided lesson by pastry chef Michael Daly, that your children will love.

 

While in Chicago, Four Seasons Hotel serves kids ice cream the old-fashioned way, via the Ice Cream Man. Make your own sundae with the kids when the ice cream man makes his way to your room with his cart, stocked with all the toppings and treats a kid, and you, could ask for.

 

Club Med Punta Cana

Discover luxury accommodations for you and the kids at Club Med in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The resort offers all-inclusive amenities that range for all ages and cater to families with variety of kid’s clubs. From Baby Club Med, Petit Club Med, Mini Club Med and Club Med Passworld, kids aged 4 months to 17 years experience the resort’s top-notch accommodations and specialized experiences.

Everything the kids could want to do and experience is built in, including windsurfing lessons, tennis, golf class, archery, sailing, kayaking, paddle boarding and Club Med CREACTIVE by Cirque du Soleil. Club Med CREATIVE is a fan favorite, complete with acrobatics and highwire acts for the kids.

 

Eau Palm Beach

Eau Palm Beach Resort and Spa caters to families with water babies with the Aquanuts program. Aquanuts provides diving services and an underwater wonderland for the mermaids and pirates in your family. The kids can lay by the pool, go on treasure hunts or climb the walls of an underwater cave.

 

Check out the kid’s club, nautical camp and various services available on your next luxury beach vacation. The services may not be included, but the flexibility of the program allows parents to mix, match and choose a schedule that works for them.

Germany Welcomes Families to Celebrate 35th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall

I may be dating myself here, but I remember the day the wall fell in Berlin like it was yesterday. It was a pretty big deal — sadly mitigated by “pieces of the wall” later being sold in our local department store as memorabilia — and while it signified the end of a divided Germany and the Cold War, its memory lives on as a reminder the human race can do so much better.
