Luxury family holidays mean memories to treasure forever. Whether that’s your little ones dipping their toes in the Med for the first time, watching sunsets beneath the windmills of Mykonos as a family, wowing the kids with sightings of sea turtles and manta rays in the Maldives, or helping the tots conquer their first ski slopes in the French Alps, it’s bound to be special.
A sun-kissed family escape to southern Europe is a classic. Rent yourself a whitewashed home in the Cyclades Islands to enjoy long days by the pool, followed by chef-cooked Greek mezze dinners of filo pies and sizzling saganaki.
In Tuscany, there are rustic farmhouse conversions with spacious gardens dotted with olive groves and boasting woodfire pizza ovens so that the little ones can learn how to craft Italy’s iconic dish.
Alternatively, go for a luxury family villa in Spain to enjoy a flurry of tasty tapas, Mudejar architecture, and urban beaches to entertain all ages.
When winter comes around, those seeking luxury holidays with the kids in tow head for the slopes. Sumptuous mountain chalets pepper the French ski resorts of Megeve, Chamonix, and Courchevel, to name but a few, featuring playrooms, private cinemas, and cosy children’s bunk rooms. Others offer access to the jagged peaks of the Italian Dolomites or the Austrian Alps. Whichever you choose, look forward to stays with on-site spa facilities, bubbling outdoor Jacuzzis, and ski-in/ski-out access so the piste-hungry young ones can be on the slopes straight after breakfast.
If you prefer to go tropical for this year’s family getaway, head to Bali or Thailand for luxury sea-view villas spattering across the cliffs and glittering yellow sands.
Safari is another fantastic option for family-friendly villa holidays. Imagine the kids’ wide-eyed amazement the first time they spot a lion stalking its prey across the plains of South Africa or an elephant herd splashing in the muddy waters of a river in Tanzania. Remote safari lodges with thatched roofs, roaring log fires, and pools frequented by giraffes are all on offer.
From luxury villas with games rooms and private cinemas to chalets with in-house creches to safari lodges with child-friendly activities, our collection of family-friendly villas has something for everyone.
