Baby-friendly Holidays

Travelling with a baby needn't be daunting. With a little preparation (and a few helpful extras), it can not only be fairly stress-free, but also an incredibly memorable holiday. There’s nothing quite like taking your little one for their first paddle in the Med, or seeing them smile as you dip their toes in the pool.

Our baby-friendly holidays aims to make travelling with tots as relaxing as possible. The hotels have been handpicked to ensure they make the grade, and each goes above and beyond when it comes to welcoming families with babies.

You can browse our full selection of baby-friendly holidays below. They cover a range of destinations, from close-to-home spots like Spain and Portugal (great if you’d prefer a shorter flight time), to the far-flung shores of Mauritius (perfect for a bit of winter sun). 

  • Our baby-friendly hotels are personally visited by members of the team

  • Practical advice and personal recommendations from our Family Trusted Advisers

  • We can help you with extras like cots, buggies, baby baths and nappies - just ask

Always ask us about equipment for hire at your hotel – things like baby baths, nappies and bottle sterilisers. It saves having to carry everything but the kitchen sink with you!
