New parents need a holiday more than anyone, but it’s not always easy to unwind with little ones in tow. But fear not, these luxury hotels are the holy grail — offering daycare for kids under four.
Let’s face it – travelling with young children can be a daunting task, but choosing the right hotel makes all the difference.
As the mum of a relentlessly active and inquisitive 18-month-old, trying to make a holiday feel like a holiday rather than an Ironman is about finding the places that will kindly take her off my hands for a bit.
Here are 22 exceptional hotels that offer kids clubs specifically designed to cater to under-fours, ensuring new parents can truly switch off – safe in the knowledge that their little ones are also having big adventures.
