1. Hôtel Royal – Evian Resort|France
Located between Lake Geneva and the French Alps, Hotel Royal enjoys an exceptional setting and views in the heart of a 42-acre lush green park. It is extremely accessible as it is just 45 km far from Geneva international airport. The town with pedestrian streets and architecture from the beginning of the century really offers a true French Art the Vivre experience. But the highlight is the fact that it is excellent for kids. In the heart of the park of the hotel, the Kid’s Resort is bathed in natural light and welcomes children from 4 months to 12 years in an exceptional setting with 1,000 m2 facilities entirely dedicated to children. There is so much for your child to try so that they can have unadulterated fun out in the open air, playing in a protected natural environment… the memories of this stay will be forever.

2. Andronis Concept Wellness Resort|Greece
The gorgeous Imerovigli village sits on a clifftop overlooking Santorini’s caldera islands. The terraces of its bars, fine-dining restaurants, and upscale boutique hotels, are popular sunset viewing spots. This is where the Andronis Concept Wellness Resort is located. The reason why this is excellent as a luxury family holiday is because of the family-oriented amenities and facilities. There is a family cooking session, kids yoga, a spa for the young and much more so that you can get some restful time while your little ones enjoy as well.

3. Marbella Club Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa Spain
The Marbella Club Hotel is located on the southern coast of Spain, in the heart of the “Golden Mile”, between Marbella and Puerto Banús. Nestled between the Mediterranean and the impressive Sierra Blanca, the luxury resort enjoys a unique microclimate that offers more days of sunshine year round than almost any other spot in Europe. Brimming with beauty is just one of the reasons why you should choose this for your next European holiday. The resort is geared for the entire family to have fun. While the golf and spa are bastions for the older guests, children love this for the varied amenities and facilities. The Kids Club has two heated pools and a range of group activities, including perfume-making, flamenco dancing in traditional costumes and archery classes. Aspiring chefs can cook up a storm in the Garage Kitchen, design their own pizza and learn how to create a delicious gazpacho or paella with a little help from the resident chef. A vegetable and herb garden lets them go digging, watering and spending ample time in the outdoors.
