Given the high demand in the coming summer season for hotels Krasnodar region, let's look at some of this list in more detail.

Hotel Bridge Resort

In the list of the best Russian hotels for children, the first place is taken by the Bridge Resort Hotel Complex in Adler, 11 buildings of which (in addition to the main building) are decorated in the theme different cities peace.

This is a modern, beautiful hotel in the Imereti Lowland on the southern slope of the Greater Caucasus with its own pebble beach on the coastal strip (the sea is 150 meters away). The hotel is located very close to Abkhazia, the airport is 12 kilometers away. A transfer is provided to the mountain cluster.

It is also worth paying attention to other family hotels, which were included in the list of the best last year.

The Imeretinsky Hotel is conveniently located - there are many children's clubs, cafes, the embankment, Sochi Park, the Olympic Park, close to the sea. From here you can quickly get to the mountains.

When choosing a hotel for a family vacation, the main difficulty is to choose an option that would best take into account the needs of both small and adult family members. Most often, parents give preference to those hotels where, from their point of view, the children will be most comfortable and convenient, often sacrificing their interests.

Perhaps getting acquainted with this small list of the best Russian hotels aimed at families with children will help you find the best accommodation option, where adults can also relax for their own pleasure.

A family vacation is a great opportunity to get even closer, get to know your child better, and most importantly, show him the world and teach him a lot. In addition, even the smallest children will enjoy a holiday at sea not only with joy, but also with great benefits from the salty waves and iodized air. It is simply impossible to overestimate their beneficial effect on the well-being of both children and adults. However, every time when planning a vacation, many parents are faced with the question of where to go. Many Russians began to prefer holidays with children on the Black Sea. But do not forget that a holiday with children at sea in 2016 is not the only opportunity for an excellent trip. There are many ski resorts that are perfect for a family holiday.

Features of holidays with children abroad

The first thing to consider when going, for example, to winter resorts This is because for very young children, especially those who are prone to frequent illnesses, this type of vacation would not be the best. As for holidays in hot countries by the sea, if a child reacts heavily to changes in climate and nutrition, then in this case it is also worth choosing simpler options. In some countries, costs for a child can reach 80% of the total cost of a tour for an adult. However, there is a list of countries that have flexible discount systems for children.

At some resorts, children traditionally relax completely free of charge. This opportunity is available in Cyprus, Greece, Turkey and Egypt. When choosing a country for your holiday, you should pay special attention to the sanitary and epidemiological condition of the resort. After all, the safety and health of your child are above all tempting low prices for tours with children. And, perhaps, the last thing you should do when planning a vacation with your child: choose a resort with a short flight.

The best resort countries for family holidays

A family vacation with children will truly be exciting and memorable for a lifetime, as many countries offer highest level service.

Türkiye

Türkiye is famous for its many fun entertainment programs for all family members. An important fact is that in Turkish hotels with excellent service, all guests are received by friendly and attentive staff. Holidays in Turkey with children will definitely be carefree, as they will take care of everything for you. However, you need to know that the most high prices for trips to Turkey in July and August, so it is best to go on vacation with children in September.

Bulgaria

A resort country like Bulgaria is created exclusively for a relaxing family holiday. At all resorts in the country there is very beautiful views, and hotels can offer children a lot of games and entertainment. The best time to fly to Bulgaria with children is in August – September. At this time in Bulgaria it is very warm and the sea is well warmed up, which is good for children.

Greece

Greece is azure sandy beaches, picturesque views and everything that can harmonize a family vacation. If you are going to Greece with the goal of soaking up the sun's rays, then the best time to do this is from May to September. If you would rather visit cultural programs countries, then it is better to buy tours for March - April.

Where is the best place to go in winter?

Winter family holidays are very diverse, as they can be spent not only in cold, but also warm countries. In Italy you can visit excellent ski resorts. There are six of them: Dolomiti di Brenta, Val di Susa, Dolomites, Val d'Aosta, Alta Valtellina and Trento. In addition, excellent ski resorts can be visited in Greece, Bulgaria and Turkey. Concerning winter holiday in warm countries, then beach seasons open in countries such as the UAE, Egypt, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Maldives and many others.

Main types of recreation and entertainment for children and their parents

In almost all resort countries there are a lot of different types of recreation and entertainment. Among them are: water parks, dolphinariums, swimming pools, animation shows for children and entertainment shows, parties, clubs, excursions for adults.

What to pay special attention to so that your children's holiday is unforgettable

Today, almost all hotels offer a variety of entertainment programs for children. However, in order for your child’s vacation to become truly unforgettable, you need to decide in advance on the desired children’s entertainment and choose a tour based on your preferences. Game labyrinths, huge play complexes, children's outdoor pools with slides, animator performances, water parks and much more. This is what foreign resorts can offer you.

The services of a babysitter at the hotel will be very useful so that parents can spend time together. But this also needs to be foreseen in advance. As a rule, in all overseas resorts, children's food includes a wide variety of menus, so your child will certainly find a dish to their liking.

Planning a holiday with children

When planning to go on vacation with your children, you should make sure you have a foreign passport and, if necessary, apply for a visa and documents confirming the relationship between the parent and the child. Then it is worth considering the availability of a transfer that will take you directly to the hotel, but if you use the services of a travel agency, then everything will be done for you in advance.

Hotels for families with children

If we talk about Turkey, the best hotels in it are considered Laserpark Hotel 5* All and Cornelia De Luxe Resort 5* All, which are located in Belek. In Bulgaria, an excellent hotel is Gergana 4* All, in Albena. And on beach village Obzor is located the luxurious Miramar 4* All hotel. In Greece the most good hotels for family holidays will be: Aldemar Cretan Village 4*, Aldemar Paradise Mare 5* and Best Western Zante Park 4*. If you want to learn more about the best hotels and other information about hotels in certain countries, then our specialists can help you.

Family tours

Family tours are temporary trips of a family (with or without children), or a group consisting of several families, to an area other than their place of permanent residence, made in their free time. The main feature of family tourism, like any form of family leisure, is the interaction of all family members.

This is what allows you to determine whether a given trip is a family trip or not. If parents at a resort prefer to hand over their children to animators or nannies, and themselves want to go on an excursion or the beach, then, in our opinion, this has nothing to do with family tourism. You could describe it as a family vacation.

Family tourism solves the following problems:

Promotes family cohesion and the establishment of emotional contact, mutual understanding, cooperation between parents and children, correction of child-parent relationships, and the implementation of family values;

Fulfills the need for rest and physical activity. Especially it concerns sports types family tourism;

Focuses on a healthy, active lifestyle and the development of health-saving technologies;

Promotes the active socialization of children; many types of family tourism are team tourism; teamwork, cooperation, and team interaction create natural conditions for children to gain social experience.

Social types of tourism (which includes family tourism) are characterized not only by high intensity of interpersonal communication, but also contribute to the development of communication between generations at the everyday level. In addition, they are a high-speed channel for transmitting information to offspring about the proper and most effective ways social adaptation and strategies of tolerant behavior allow the simultaneous and synchronous formation of useful life experiences among two, three or more generations of people.

Family tours developed by tour operators. IN tourism business family orientation is a priority; it is a priori believed that family tourists bring diversity to tourism as a whole. However, tour operators try to select the tour as much as possible, focusing on the main features of the family audience, especially paying attention to the issues of comfortable accommodation, food, organization of children's entertainment, convenience transport communication, providing additional services, development excursion routes, interesting and accessible to children.

Independent travel. In this case, the family independently plans the route and determines the method of transportation (train, plane, bus, car, hiking, cycling, water tourism). Besides, independent organization It also involves greater interaction between family members at all stages of preparation and implementation, since they have to jointly answer a lot of questions.

Purpose of travel (why? Why?). This main question, the answers to which will determine all future activities. An adult should try to answer honestly not just the question “why?”, but the questions “why does my child need this?” and “why do I personally and my family need this?” The main assistant in finding a goal is common sense. If the child is 2 years old, then it is completely illogical to designate acquaintance with the sights as the goal. and no matter how much my mother would like to travel around all the beauties of architecture, this type of vacation will have to be postponed.

Remarkable words were expressed by D.V. Schmeiger in his book “I want to see the Earth!”, which for almost 30 years has not lost its relevance, and every line of which is imbued with love for his work and for children: “If you decide to take a child (on a long trip or on a weekend hike - anyway) just because there is nowhere to put it - come to your senses! You will ruin your trip, poison your and your child’s vacation, and perhaps turn him away from tourism forever. If you were unable to send your child to kindergarten or to camp, if you were unable to find a grandmother, aunt, or nanny for the vacation period - well, well... Stay with your child at home or in the country. And let the spouses go on hikes one by one.

If you are tired of communicating with your baby in fits and starts, torn between him, work and a boring life; if you are sad because your heir is being raised by nannies, teachers, neighbors, the street - anyone else except you; if you suddenly feel that you simply love your child like a father (like a mother) and are ready to sacrifice some of your claims for him, then you are ripe for a family trip.”

How much free time can you devote to tourism? The amount of free time will determine the final destination of the trip, travel time, and choice of transport. You shouldn’t give up traveling if you only have one free day - you can arrange a weekend hike. Having a free week, you should either refuse the train, which takes three days to reach your destination, and choose a plane. Or choose another destination.

Family composition. How many family members are going on the trip, what is the age group, will grandparents be traveling? How many children and what are their ages? what is their health status? The answers to these questions will also influence the choice of your final destination. Pediatricians and physiologists do not recommend taking children under three years of age out of the climate zone in which they were born. In case of climate change, it is necessary to take into account the time for acclimatization. D.V. Schmeiger recommends “up to about a year old, take children only to the dacha, and from one year to two or three years (the proposed age limits, of course, are quite arbitrary - after all, different children have different health and physical development) carefully accustom them to competent communication with nature and instill They need some tourist skills. During this period, be sure to take your children out of town not to the countryside, but to “wild” conditions, but while walking, carry the child mainly on yourself - in a backpack or on your shoulders. and do not forget that the transitions should be short: children quickly get tired of riding on their parents (however, they quickly get tired of any ride, including on a train, so the trips should not be long). Stop often at suitable clearings where your baby can frolic safely.”

Practice shows, for example, that in hiking With children, it is more advisable to go in a group of several friendly families (about 3-4 families) with a total number of 8-12 people who know each other well. In this case, children find company for communication, and it is easier for adults to organize childcare and joint games and activities. Of course, a family can go hiking “alone,” in which case (depending on the age of the children) optimal choice It will be a weekend hike.

Against the backdrop of traditional types of family tourism, there are currently innovative proposals. So, G.V. Talalaeva proposed the creative development of social forms of tourism in the form of family educational tourism in the “grandparents and grandchildren” format. According to the author, this type social tourism is relevant for modern Russia. This is due not only to the availability of free time among the older generation, the lack of it among the middle generation, and the desire for interactive communication among the younger. This is supported by new economic realities: the development of the country’s financial system, the improvement of the forms of activity of pension funds and social protection services. Today, all conditions have arisen for the social mission of tourism to consolidate society to actively develop.

Thus, family tours are a rich, interesting, very diverse form of cultural and leisure activities for the family and have a great impact on family relationships. Thoughtful planning and taking into account the interests of all family members when choosing a trip will allow you to fully enjoy your free time.
