For parents, a multi-generational vacation provides the perfect opportunity to inspire their little ones and create lasting memories. But finding ways to keep kids educated and entertained can be a challenge. To ensure a perfect family holiday with kids some of the hotels are offering family-packed fun packages.
Danang Marriott Resort & Spa, the tropical beachfront property on Vietnam’s central coast, has crafted extensive learning experiences, adventures and excursions to keep all ages fully engaged throughout their stay. Every guest – including tots and teens – will be able to discover new skills and gain fresh insights that could potentially evolve into lifelong passion.
Outdoor-loving families can embark on the “Hoi An Eco Tour” (08:00 – 13:00 hrs), which transports them to a water coconut forest where kids will learn how to paddle a bamboo basket boat. Having donned a traditional nón lá (conical hat) and farm clothing, guests will then take a trip to Tra Que herb village where they can help farmers plant their organic produce and take a tour of the gardens, before soaking their feet in a herbal water bath. A rice paper making session and cooking class will then teach the parents and children how to craft authentic Vietnamese food, before tasting their own dishes.
Alternatively, nature lovers can take a guided “Wildlife Walk” (14:30 – 18:30 hrs) through the Son Tra Nature Reserve, a coastal forest that rises to 700 meters above sea-level and showcases spectacular views of the ocean. This ecological paradise is home to many rare species of birds, butterflies and primates, including the critically endangered red-shanked douc langurs, which could be spotted along the way.
For culture seekers, the “Marble Mountain – Hoi An Ancient Town” tour (08:00 – 14:00 hrs) covers some of Central Vietnam’s intriguing destinations. Active families can climb the stone stairs of the Marble Mountains and soak up views of the countryside, before visiting Huyen Khong cave and a stone carving village. A short drive then transports travellers to Hoi An, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed port town which is famous for its cobbled streets, historic shophouses and Japanese Covered Bridge.
Danang Marriott Resort & Spa also offers a wide variety of onsite activities for kids. Philips Cao, the resort’s experienced and engaging Recreation Supervisor, presents a choice of fun sessions. Youngsters can choose from cooking classes such as cupcake decorating, spring roll making and smoothie blending; artistic workshops including bracelet making and conical hat painting; or outdoor activities like beach walks, kids’ aerobics and swimming lessons.
“Family vacations are truly priceless experiences, providing unique opportunities for children to try exciting new activities and learn different skills. At Danang Marriott Resort & Spa, parents can rest assured that their little ones will never complain about being bored. Our extensive selection of recreational classes and local excursions will ensure that every family can create memories that last a lifetime,” said Piotr Madej, General Manager, Danang Marriott Resort & Spa.
Under the M Passport package, families who book a pool villa will be treated to daily breakfast for two adults and two children (under 6 years old), M Passport activities for kids, a daily 60-minute spa treatment for two adults, a one-way airport transfer and a daily in-villa BBQ dinner.
