Cheeca Lodge is a tropical paradise that welcomes families to come and play. The hotel offers something for all ages. A fish stocked swimming lagoon for little ones, family pool, fishing pier, assortment of water sports activities and Camp Cheeca for ages 5-12. The spa and adult pool give parents a place to slip away to while the kids are entertained. The restaurant offers a nice children’s menu, but the rooms are so comfortable you might be tempted to order room service and enjoy dinner on your balcony. Oceanfront rooms offer a view that can’t be beat. The only thing you won’t like is leaving. |

Hawks Cay is an all around great hotel option for kids of all ages. We liked it so much we went there three years in a row. There is a terrific pool area with a pirate ship and slide that is perfect young kids and a flexible kids program where there is always some kind of activity happening like painting and games. There are hotel rooms and villa units available. We opted for the villa as they are well-appointed and spacious for families. The property also features tennis, a marina, and an onsite dolphin adventure program. We love that Hawks Cay is small enough so kids can have a bit of independence and walk around on their own. It is also in a convenient location to explore Key West and other fun Florida Keys attractions. |

Loews offers a variety of unique programs and services for children; including lending libraries of games, special children's menus which include healthy options, tours, Fisher-Price welcome gifts, and supervised recreational programs. There is also a zero entry pool that is a safe and fun way to enjoy the magnificent pool with small kids. Highlights include Lincoln Road Mall (three blocks away) - an open-air pedestrian promenade filled with restaurants, outdoor cafes, stores, art galleries, and (at night) street performers. It's lined with plenty of benches, lush foliage, and colorful storefronts. A great place for walking strollers or hanging out and having a coffee/drink break with your older children. The hotel is at the far end of South Beach on the beach so guests have access to a private part of the beach and are away from the "action" of Ocean Drive, yet close enough to enjoy the sights.

Marco Beach Ocean Resort is located on wonderful beach. In contrast to the adult-oriented scene of other seaside resort areas in Florida, the atmosphere of Marco Island is very family-friendly. The all-suite resort is beautifully appointed with renovated kitchens, marble bathrooms, and luxury linens. Although the property does not have a kids’ club or other kid-centric amenities, the ideal guest room set-up, warm service, and convenient location make it work well for families that want a relaxing, boutique hotel experience. The Italian fine dining restaurant offers by far the best food on the island. |

If you ask us which hotel we would go to whenever we had the chance, it would be The Breakers. We love the luxury here - the property is very comfortable with gorgeous rooms. The service is excellent. The kids' program and amenities are outstanding and include an arcade, movie theater, and playground. There is a beachfront area with new pools for families, as well as adult-only options. The poolside bungalows are beautiful and great to use. To top it off, the setting is wonderful with fantastic ocean views. |

When we travel as a family it is most important to be in an intimate place that allows for stress free time for parents and a safe and secure environment for the kids. The Raleigh offers exactly this. We have traveled to this hotel several times and the kids look forward to it just as much as us. The hotel staff knows who we are every time we come back and we are completely comfortable leaving the kids on their own when they want to be. The concierge always helps us with fun activities that we enjoy doing together for family time. It is hard to find a great family hotel in Miami, but we found it at The Raleigh. |

I discovered this boutique hotel while traveling on business. I immediately brought my family here for a long weekend. We love it, and continue to come as often as possible.The hotel is pristine and inviting as soon as you enter the lobby. The rooms, which are mostly suites, have upscale white linen decor, but also happen to be comfortable. The 2 and 3 bedroom suites are magnificent. The food is very good, both poolside and in the dining room. The pool and beach are well groomed and not very crowded. There's a small gym on site. Most impressive of all, is the staff. They are helpful, friendly, attentive and genuinely interested in making your stay a memorable one. My son will remember his 10th birthday forever, thanks to the thoughtfulness of 2 of the employees at the Vero Beach Hotel. |
