I chose to stay at this hotel because it was conveniently located near the city, without the city hotel prices. It was better than I expected it to be when I got there. My children and I felt[More]
extremely comfortable when we stayed here, like we were at home! I was able to cook for them, we rented movies from downstairs to watch and were able to just relax. We also slept well since the beds were so comfortable. There was easy access to the train station so that we could go into the city and the complimentary shuttle to pick us up was right there to take us back to the hotel. I also like the fact that there is a laundry room and fitness area here, although I didn't get the chance to use it.

I plan on going back in the summer for another trip to the city with the kids. Overall great stay! See you soon! [Less]

You’ve heard the stories. Someone you know talks about their “all-inclusive” vacation or incentive trip and doesn’t have many positive things to say. From bland-tasting buffets, cheap watered-down booze, packed pools, loud and rowdy vacationers, the negative comments abound. However, all-inclusive properties can live up to their name and boost morale while also creating unforgettable experiences. A far cry from the negative stories people have heard.
What’s the secret to avoiding a terrible experience? At Brightspot, we know it comes down to research and finding top-quality experiences. In fact, we have compiled a list of the top all-inclusive resorts if you’re interested in just the hotel names. In the case of enhancements, you should first understand that some all-inclusives cater to leisure travelers while others excel with groups. Talking to hotels or DMCs is vital, and we believe in championing your all-inclusive trip with special perks and exclusive experiences. It’s about going above and beyond, and that’s why we’ve compiled a list of 11 enhancements you can add to an all-inclusive incentive trip.
11 Enhancements for an All-Inclusive Incentive Trip:
- Room Upgrades
- Butler Service
- Personalized Gifts
- Private Spaces
- Private Dinners
- Spa Packages
- Hospitality Cabanas
- Themed Drinks & Cocktails
- Manicure Stations
- Company Branding
- Artisan Market
1. Room Upgrades
A room with extra space or amenities can go a long way to making the experience more memorable. From breathtaking city views to calming ocean views, your guests will thank you when they can feel an escape right from their bedroom. Room choice has seen upgrades from past years, with hotels usually offering multiple options. Aside from the room layout and furniture, ask about different types of rooms that include:
- Ocean views
- Oceanfront views
- Pool views
- City views
- And more
And maybe you get a combination of two types like a room with a private pool and ocean view together. With a guestroom like that, your attendees are bound to remember their first time sinking their feet into their private plunge pool as they watch the sun set over the ocean.
2. Butler Service
We know guests love to be pampered, so why not give them the royal treatment with a butler? Providing butler service speaks to how much you value your attendees, and they won’t soon forget it. Being treated like kings and queens doesn’t happen very often, and butlers or resort attendants will help ensure your guests’ every need is met, from drawing a bath to making reservations at on- and off-site restaurants. Knowing the difference between an incentive-quality all-inclusive is important here; many offer butler services within your room rate; it would be wise to investigate what services are provided and add it in as a perk.
3. Personalized Gifts
Although personalization can come in the typical embroidery, label, or knickknack, we recommend locally sourcing a gift and adding some personality. Some popular examples we’ve seen include monogram pillow shams inside each room and bottled drinks with a participant’s name and picture. Also, we recommend partnering with local brands or artisans and adding a custom label to their products. Sometimes the local artisans even uniquely write each name. Not only are you helping the local community, but you are also providing special gifts to participants.
4. Private Spaces
Sometimes asking your CSM or hotel about a unique space for a private reception will uncover some hidden gem group venues. An unforgettable private dinner in an underground cave or an event next to a beautiful, lush garden can leave your guests in awe. You never know what you can do until you ask. Sometimes the resort’s beachfront can turn into a beautiful dinner location. Just don’t forget to confirm amenities and how many participants can fit.
5. Private Dinners
We talked earlier about bland food, but not all all-inclusive resorts are equal when it comes to the quality of food. Instead, we find that the best all-inclusive resorts include mouth-watering dishes and leave your guests raving about the cuisine – even after returning home! So, why not ask about buying out one of the resort’s restaurants and creating a private dining atmosphere. Many locations also provide enhanced décor, making it feel like an upgraded dining experience. We’ve seen some beautiful indoor and outdoor dining options, and sometimes decorations are available at no or low cost.
6. Spa Packages
After working their way toward earning this incentive trip, your participants are looking forward to forgetting about the normalcy of life and celebrating their success! Treating them to a spa package is the ultimate relaxation method to do just that. Whether it’s massages, facials, manicures, or pedicures, your participants will be eternally grateful after spending time refreshing at the spa. It is not only a great bonding time for some, but it also sends a great message that you care for your participant’s well-being.
7. Hospitality Cabanas
Sometimes when your group is at a resort, they can become overwhelmed by the property’s sheer size. With a hospitality cabana or suite, you have the opportunity to create a location where your guests can easily find each other and network. You can even use multiple cabanas with larger groups for different regions or divisions. Enhance the experience by providing drinks, snacks, and even giveaways or a gifting experience that your guests will appreciate. You don’t want to miss out on delivering a stellar trip experience.
8. Themed Drinks & Cocktails
More often these days, you’ll see resorts offering a specialty drink to arrivals. Did you know many resorts allow you to customize this drink for your attendees? It’s the perfect opportunity to show off some creativity by tailor-making a themed drink, cocktail, or smoothie. If your company has a strong brand color, try asking for this unique color to be added and see if the hotel can create an alcoholic and non-alcoholic option. Your guests will be impressed with your attention to detail.
9. Manicure Stations
Like the spa treatment, a manicure station goes above and beyond, providing an extra courtesy to your guests. When preparing for a fancy reception, everyone wants to dress to impress. A manicure station offers an easy way for your guests to clean, polish, and color their nails before a big event. A popular choice with the ladies and the gentlemen, these stations will be something your guests will continue to talk about even after returning home.
10. Company Branding
Make your guests feel extra special by taking over the resort with your company’s branding. With banners, floor stickers, company colors, tablecloths, souvenirs, GOBO lighting, sand sculptures, and more, your imagination is the only limiting factor. Your guests will feel more connected to each other, and the wonderful experience with be cemented in their minds with the hosting company. One super creative idea we’ve seen was as simple as flip-flops: a company logo added to the bottom of the sandal left an impression in the sand with each step. Soon their logo was everywhere on the beach!
11. Artisan Market
Infuse the local culture into your event by hiring 3-5 local artisans to sell authentic handcrafted gifts inside the resort. Not only will you be providing your guests with unique gifts, but you will also help the local community. In addition, we recommend providing branded “dollars” to make it easier for your guests to shop and spend without worrying about handling cash. Your attendees will thank you when they realize they can experience a taste of the local culture without having to leave the resort.
We hope these enhancements have spurred some creativity and eased your mind about sending a group to an all-inclusive resort. There are bound to be more ideas than the ones we just shared, so feel free to think outside the box to come up with a few of your own. We find that an all-inclusive property can be just the starting point for a great guest experience.

There's something magical about embarking on a camping adventure with your furry friend by your side. The great outdoors becomes even greater when you have your canine companion exploring alongside you.
In this comprehensive guide, we'll delve into the joys of camping with a dog, discuss the benefits it offers, and provide you with valuable tips and insights to ensure a safe and memorable experience. So grab your dog's leash, pack your bags, and let's embark on an unforgettable journey together.
The Joys of Camping with a Dog
Camping with a dog is more than just an outdoor excursion; it's a bonding experience that deepens the connection between you and your four-legged friend.
Picture this: as you set up your tent and build a cozy campfire, your dog eagerly explores the surrounding wilderness, tail wagging with unbridled excitement. The happiness reflected in their eyes and the unwavering loyalty they exhibit make every moment spent camping with them truly special.
Having your dog by your side also brings a sense of security and companionship that enhances the overall adventure.
Benefits of Taking a Dog Camping
Beyond the emotional rewards, camping with a dog offers a myriad of benefits for both you and your furry companion. It provides an opportunity for them to engage their instincts and indulge in their love for the outdoors.
Dogs are natural explorers, and being surrounded by nature stimulates their senses and brings them immense joy. Camping and hiking are also excellent forms of exercise for dogs, allowing them to stretch their legs, burn off excess energy, and stay fit. It's a win-win situation: you get to enjoy the tranquility of nature, and your dog gets to indulge in their natural instincts.
Tips for Camping with a Dog
For the best experience possible, consider these following tips before you go on your camping trip.
Preparing Your Dog for Camping
Gradual Exposure: Introduce your dog to the camping experience gradually. Start with short day trips to outdoor locations, gradually extending the duration of your adventures.
Basic Training: Ensure your dog responds to basic commands such as "sit," "stay," and "come." This will be invaluable in maintaining control and ensuring their safety during camping trips.
Health Check: Schedule a visit to the veterinarian to ensure your dog is up to date on vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, and overall health. It's important to address any specific concerns related to your dog's breed or health conditions.
Training Your Dog for Camping
Recall Training: Teach your dog a reliable recall command to ensure they come back to you promptly when called, even in distracting outdoor environments.
Socialization: Expose your dog to other dogs and people to help them become comfortable in different environments, reducing stress and anxiety during camping trips.
Behavior Reinforcement: Reward your dog for positive behavior and obedience during camping excursions, reinforcing good habits and fostering a positive camping experience.
Safety Precautions for Camping with a Dog
Identification Tags: Ensure your dog wears an identification tag with up-to-date contact information throughout the camping trip.
Leash and Tie-Out: Always keep your dog on a leash or tie-out to prevent them from wandering off and encountering potential dangers.
Wildlife Awareness: Be aware of the local wildlife in the camping area and take precautions to avoid encounters that could harm your dog.
Dog Essentials for Camping
Food and Water
Pack enough food for the duration of the trip, as well as collapsible bowls for feeding and hydration.
First Aid Kit
Include a puppy-friendly first aid kit with essential items such as bandages, antiseptic wipes, and any necessary medications for your dog's needs.
Leash and Collar
Choose a sturdy leash and properly fitting collar to ensure your dog's safety and control during outdoor adventures.
Dog-Specific Camping Gear
If you’re looking for additional dog camping gear, consider adding these items to your list:
Dog Backpacks: Let your furry friend contribute to the camping experience by carrying their own supplies and gear, such as food, water, and a first aid kit.
Dog Sleeping Bags: Provide your dog with a cozy and warm sleeping spot by investing in a dog-specific sleeping bag designed for outdoor use.
Dog Life Jackets: If your camping trip involves water activities, such as swimming or boating, ensure your dog's safety with a well-fitted and buoyant life jacket.
Dog Boots: Protect your dog's paws from rough terrain, hot surfaces, and sharp objects with durable and comfortable dog boots.
Dog Cooling Vests: Keep your dog cool and comfortable during hot weather camping trips with a specially designed cooling vest that helps regulate their body temperature.
Dog Camping Bowls: Lightweight, durable, and easy to clean, these bowls are perfect for feeding your dog while on a camping adventure.
Dog Portable Water Bottles: Ensure easy access to clean water for your dog during hikes or outdoor activities with a portable water bottle designed specifically for dogs.
Camping with a Dog in a Tent
When it comes to tent camping with your dog, there are a few key considerations to keep in mind.
Firstly, choose a tent that provides enough space for you and your dog to sleep and move around comfortably. Opt for a tent with a separate vestibule or designated area where your dog can rest.
Additionally, consider using a groundsheet or a dog-specific sleeping pad to provide extra comfort and insulation for your furry friend.
It's also a good idea to introduce your dog to the tent gradually, allowing them to explore and become familiar with their sleeping space before the camping trip.
Choosing the Right Tent
Choosing the right tent for your needs is important. Look for a tent that is spacious, durable, and easy to set up when taking a dog camping. Consider the size and breed of your dog when selecting a tent.
Some tents even come with built-in features such as mesh windows and doors, providing proper ventilation and allowing your dog to observe their surroundings from the safety of the tent.
Setting up the Tent
When setting up the tent, ensure it is securely anchored to the ground to prevent any accidents or damage caused by your dog's movement. Create a cozy sleeping area for your dog inside the tent, complete with their own blanket or dog bed.
Sleeping Arrangements for Dogs
Provide your dog with a comfortable and familiar sleeping spot within the tent. Bring their favorite blanket or dog bed to create a sense of familiarity and ensure a good night's sleep for both you and your furry friend.
Solo Camping with a Dog
If you're venturing on a solo camping trip with your dog, there are a few additional safety considerations to keep in mind.
Preparing for Solo Camping with a Dog
Inform a trusted friend or family member about your camping plans, including your route, campsite location, and expected return date. It's always a good idea to have someone aware of your whereabouts in case of emergencies.
Safety Considerations for Solo Camping with a Dog
Maintain a close watch on your dog at all times, especially during solo camping trips. Keep them leashed or within a secure area to prevent them from wandering off or encountering potential dangers.
Essential Tips for Solo Camping with a Dog
Carry a whistle or signaling device: In case of emergencies or if you need to attract attention, a whistle can be a valuable tool. LuminAID’s emergency lanterns can also be a great signaling device with their bright red and white LEDs.
Be cautious of wildlife encounters: When camping solo, it's important to stay vigilant and be aware of any potential wildlife encounters that could pose a risk to you and your dog.
Pack extra supplies: As you'll be solely responsible for yourself and your dog, ensure you have an ample supply of food, water, and any necessary medical kits for both of you. It's better to be over-prepared than underprepared when embarking on a solo camping adventure with your canine companion.
Camping with a Dog Checklist
Before You Leave
Check the campground's pet policies: Ensure that the campground you plan to visit allows dogs and familiarize yourself with any specific rules or restrictions.
Pack your dog's essentials: Don't forget to bring enough food, water, treats, toys, and waste disposal bags for your furry friend.
Protect your dog with insect repellent: You wouldn’t want to get bitten by bugs while on a camping trip, and neither would your best friend. Use natural repellents such as Natrapel’s essential oil insect repellent.
At the Campsite
Set up a designated area for your dog: Create a comfortable space for your dog to relax and sleep, complete with bedding and shade if necessary.
Secure the campsite: Make sure the campsite is properly secured to prevent your dog from wandering off or encountering wildlife.
During the Trip
Keep your dog hydrated: Provide access to fresh water regularly, especially during outdoor activities and in warm weather. Learn the signs of dehydration in your pup, and act quickly in an emergency.
Monitor your dog's behavior: Pay attention to any signs of stress, fatigue, or discomfort. Adjust activities and rest accordingly to ensure their well-being.
After the Trip
Clean up after your dog: Properly dispose of any waste in designated areas and leave the campsite as clean as you found it.
Camping with your four-legged friend is an experience filled with joy, adventure, and unforgettable moments. Remember to plan ahead, pack the necessary gear, and prioritize your dog's safety and well-being throughout the trip. The bond you'll build and the memories you'll create together will make it all worthwhile. So embrace the wilderness, breathe in the fresh air, and embark on a camping journey with your loyal companion. Happy camping!

Disliked: Stayed here because it was close to the hospital and dealing with a family emergency. The room was not clean. They had left dirty rags on side table from maintenance crew or housekeeping. Really gross! The bathroom was semi decent but a hole in shower fixtures. The room needs to be updated and it seemed they were working on remodeling but unfinished painting around newer mirror by the sink/vanity area. Towels and bed linen were not very clean, looked dingy. Definetely dont want to walk in room barefoot. Lounge chair was worn out, dirty and ripped. The area where this hotel is located is somewhat difficult to get to if you are from out of town and not familiar with the area. Wouldnt want to stay here again.

Top Reviews of The Carlton
The Carlton, located right inside Kodaikanal town, features lush lawns and gardens which create the relaxing ambience that one expects in a hill station. The room was spacious and well appointed - comfortable beds and furniture, TV, DVD player, iron and board, room heater, tea/coffee making facility, mini safe, fridge (empty, not a mini bar), hair dryer and fairly good toiletries. The highlight was the spacious balcony which overlooked the lake from which can watch the as the waters shimmer, ripple and reflect the sun and the clouds at different times of the day. It's the perfect place to sit all day with a book and /or a drink Though the food was middling and was a bit of a disappointment though, after a small chat, Chef Krishnan ensured that we got a nice dish or two during each meal. To ensure that families have a good time on their holidays, they provide entertainment every evening - tombola and folk dances while we were there. The hotel has shikaras and bicycles as well as a gymnasium for the guests to use. The kids club has enough activities to keep the youngsters busy all day. The location makes it convenient for a nice walk around the lake, if you start out before the buses, SUVs, horses and bicycles take over .. Service was always prompt, polite, enthusiastic and friendly and the rare hitches were caused by s couple of trainees being a bit weak in English. Ratheesh, in the restaurant, was alert to all our needs and added considerably to our dining experience. The terrain is such that are quite a lot of stairs linking the different areas, older people will do well to opt for a room that does need much climbing. The Carlton is a bot expensive but it is well worth especially the balcony overlooking the lake.
The Carlton is quite worthy of its reputation of being the best resort/ hotel in Kodaikanal, a position it has held for a long time. The location is pretty, just adjacent to Kodai lake and the resort itself is spread over a large area, beautifully landscaped and impressively laid out. The mix of activities available for a family with kids is amazing, from the boat club that offers \'shikara\' rides to a cycling rink with bicyles for all ages, badminton, table tennis, hammocks all around, an activity room with lots to do, a reasonable library, and lovely play area for toddlers too. The health club/ spa is good, although the peak season rush made any treatments a bit of a rushed affair. The staff is courteous and helpful--geared to meet all your needs!
Good Hotel to spend with family and friends. Worth for money. Excellent place to stay. Food was good. Staff service was good. Hotel ambiance is very nice. Located in the main place, very closer to all the sightseeing. Overall we had a very pleasant stay.
I spent my Honeymoon at Kodaikanal during mid February 2015. The place was just amazing with Lush Green Hills all around. The treks to Dolphin peak is wonderful and views are beautiful. Food is great and chocolates are just heavenly. You can find home-made chocolates all around and can taste them for free at all outlets. They are mouth watering delicious and yet very cheap with great variety available from Belgium Dark Chocolates to local fruity ones. Various activities like hiking, trekking, cycling, boating can be done in Kodaikanal. In all it makes a perfect holiday destination for every kind of tourist from honeymooners like us to family, kids, elders etc. For reaching Kodaikanal, train can be taken up-to Madurai, Kodai road or Coimbatore stations. And from there taxi or buses (4 to 5 hours) direct to Kodaikanal. Alternatively Madurai, Coimbatore can be reached by air.
The location of this hotel was good. There was no difficulty to reach the hotel. The stay was very good in this hotel. Non veg food was very good. Appearance was very good from inside and outside. There was Mountain View from the room. All the basic amenities were there in the room and all were working properly. The room was also very spacious and good. There was no delay during check-in and check-out procedure. Aurvedic massage was there in the hotel, but it was chargeable. The swimming pool was also there, but we didn't use it. Sightseeing trip was arranged by the hotel. The Wi-FI facility was there in the hotel, but we didn't use. It was value for money hotel and I would like to recommend this hotel.

Travel Around The World To See All You CanThere are many choices you will have to make as you make travel plans. Preparing for a trip can actually be fun sometimes. The article below contains the information you need to make your travel arrangements fun and stress-free.
You can save a lot of money on your next vacation by purchasing a last minute travel deal. Many websites now offer this feature. When travel agencies, cruises, airlines and the like have unsold vacation packages, they offer them at steep discounts the closer they get to departure date.
To simplify the packing process, try to pack clothing in only one or two colors. For example, you could pack only blue and khaki skirts and pants and only shirts that are shades of blue and khaki. This technique ensures that everything you pack coordinates with everything else, so you will never have a problem finding something to wear on your trip.
Purchasing an entertainment package when visiting a city with many attractions can save you time and money. An entertainment package purchased in advance usually includes tickets to several area attractions, often at a discounted rate. This will take much of the stress out of a vacation, allowing you to walk past the long lines at the ticket counter when you arrive and get straight to the fun.
Before booking a hotel for your trip, check with the Better Business Bureau. Checking with them first, can save you a lot of time and money. It will ensure that you do not waste your time checking into a poor hotel. A poor hotel experience can ruin any vacation or business trip.
Jogging at a rest stop, while on a road trip, is a fast way to wake up, relieve stiffness from your limbs and prepare yourself for the next leg of your journey. Instead of simply walking around and maybe going to the bathroom, include a five minute jog at the rest stop. Simply getting out of the car may not sufficiently revive a weary driver, which may leave him or her still sleepy when on return. A quick run can also give children an opportunity to release some pent-up energy.
Do a thorough online search of every airline to find the least expensive flights. Sometimes they have better prices than the discount travel websites.
One way of minimizing ice buildup on your windshield is to park your car with the windshield facing away from the prevailing wind. Another way too few of us think about is to cover our windshields with a throw rug when we park our vehicles. Tuck the edge in under your windshield wipers and your car will be as snug as a bug in a rug.
Confirm your reservations. There's nothing worse than arriving at your destination, only to find out that there isn't a reservation in your name. As a simple precaution, 24 hours before your scheduled arrival, verify your reservations online or over the phone. This will allow time to make alternate plans if your reservation was missed.
When traveling abroad, research currency rates in advance of your trip. By knowing how much your money is worth in other countries, you will have a better idea on how best to budget your trip. This prevents too much spending and increases the fun you will have.
While some car rental companies ask that drivers be at least 18, others require that their drivers be 25 years old. If you are younger than that, you may have to pay more. In some cities, senior citizens are not allowed to rent cars. When you make your reservations, make sure you ask if they have any age restrictions.
Tired of the same boring road trip? Next time you have to pack up and go to an out-of-town event, try something different. After you map your main driving route, pick a few random places off the beaten path to stop at along the way. It could be a small mom-and-pop diner, a state park or maybe your first visit to a comic book store. Not only will this break up your drive, you will have added memories to keep forever.
Find out if your destination is kid friendly beforehand. If you have little ones that will be traveling with you, it's helpful to know if there are things that will hold their interest so you don't end up spending the majority of your time trying to amuse them.
Try to avoid visiting Europe during the hot summer months. The consensus is that this is the worst time to vacation there. https://food.ndtv.com/lists/10-best-italian-recipes-699798 is that prices are higher, many trips are booked and over-booked, and there are many crowds during this time of year. Experience Europe in the off-season to see what it's like for locals.
Don't fold your clothes when you pack - roll them. Rolling your clothes into tight cylinders is much more space efficient when packing a suitcase. You will be able to fit more items in your suitcase, which is very important now that airlines charge hefty fees for each bag checked.
After getting settled in your hotel room, look for fire exits. This may seem trivial, but it can save your life. By knowing where the fire exits are - if the fire alarm goes off - you know which direction to leave. Also, try not to forget your hotel key or card in the event of a fire evacuation.
Make sure to place all of your medication in your carry-on bag. Be sure that they are in their original pharmacy containers with their pharmacy labels, so that the bag can easily travel through airport security. It also helps to know the generic names for all of your medications in case you need to speak with a local pharmacist who doesn't know them by brand name.
When traveling overseas, stay away from food that is not served hot. Standards for preparing food are not the same in other countries and could make you sick. In particular, stay away from cold sauces and desserts. http://www.oregonlive.com/dining/index.ssf/2017/10/portlands_best_italian_restaurants.html are often a few days old, meaning that bacteria has already begun to grow on them.
Now that you have learned a few ways to be better prepared for your travels, simply follow through with the advice and you will be well on your way to having a safe and happy trip. Be sure to take notes about these tips and take one last look before you go, so you can enjoy a worry-free experience.

Small dishes were wonderful and we both enjoyed many. main course was not as good. veggie sides on both main courses were silly and didn't pair well with fish and duck. have been several times to your restaurant. vegetable sides should be fresh not mushy and mixed into a solt casserole.
- Meal date : 11 Sep 2019
Location was fantastic and service was good. We had the goat cheese to start which was delicious. We decided to go with the sandwiches for the main course. This turned out to be disappointing. The waiter recommended the club sandwich. I expected something different but it was the same as you would get in the states. Normal club sandwich with fries (I guess I expected more or something different). My wife ordered the roast beef sandwich on French bread. It didn't have a lot of meat and the French bread was very hard. Definitely recommend this place for the location and setting not so much for the food.

The service to check out was very slow.

Lovely evening, good food...but was there a reason you seated all the Americans in the same area?

To my wife and I Les Deux Magots is the quintessential St. Germain, Paris restaurant! It was what we envisioned a Paris cafe to look like - right out of a movie! Located at a busy intersection, we sat right out front and thoroughly enjoyed the parade of people - Parisians and tourists alike who passed by in droves. There were plenty of locals around us and the sound of lively conversations in delightful French was fun. Our meal was delicious and we felt lucky to be able to have such a wonderful experience.

Food was absolutely yummy. I ordered their escargot, beef tartare & creme brûlée and they were done to perfection. Loved the look of the restaurant and it’s in a great location.

Definitely a must stop if visiting Paris! Just make sure you know what you are actually ordering, and ask for recommendations if you aren’t sure! Great service!

Our friends recommended to us to check this place. So we went for a dinner and truly enjoy it. Service was very good, maybe a little bit too quick. Food was nice and tasty. The place itself is full of character. We would definitely go back and recommend to others.

First encounter in 5 days in Paris with a snotty waiter. This restaurant an overpriced tourist attraction.

Fantastic room with wonderful ambiance. If you go have the hot chocolate. It is out of this world. The other food is standard bistro faire.

Just back from 9 days at the Hotel Isabel and both my husband and I could not find a fault with anything at the hotel. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The room was cleaned every single day and even the girls doing the cleaning were lovely. The whole place was absolutely spotless and the service was second to none. We would highly recommend for anyone that wants to get away for a peaceful and tranquil break. Pay that extra bit for the sea view you will not be disappointed. The location is ideally situated on the beach front and walking distance to the town centre. Lovely pubs and restaurants in walking distance aswell. Tudor Rose restaurant just around the corner for breakfast and dinner and Kennedys bar for nightly entertainment. We would definitely stay her again.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):

Climb a sand dune to watch a fiery sunset on a Family Adventure in Southern Africa. And Botswana, in southern Africa. Tours leave from Windhoek, once a German colonial city and now the capital of Namibia. The land looks other-worldly, with its shimmering sand dunes and dried lakebeds, but this is a great place for kids (and adults) to learn about desert ecology and the region’s history. Guides lead interactive walks into the bush and explain the tracking skills and survival methods used by the San tribe, inhabitants of this area for over 30,000 years. You’ll pass hippos and elephants as you paddle canoes through the Okavango Delta, one of the best places in the country to spot animals and birds. The journey ends at Victoria Falls, known as the world’s largest waterfall, in Zimbabwe.

Some of the top destinations for families are the Caribbean, Florida, California and Hawaii, attracting vacationers with their sandy beaches and colorful sunsets, especially during the colder months and in the summer when there is no school and kids can get away for a longer vacation. Many families enjoy cruises which allow them to see many destinations in a short span of time. Mega cruise ships offer a wide variety of activities, from pools and waterslides to rock climbing and kids' clubs. Consider the season - the destinations that work best in the spring and summer may not be as interesting in the winter. Resorts with water parks include the Arizona Grand Resort, the Lake Lanier Islands, the Gaylord Palms Resort. Unique getaways in the U.S. include The Cloister at Sea Island, The Bishop's Lodge, Hilton Hawaiian Village and Grand Wailea Resort.
Family vacations can supply lifelong memories, but to ensure that every member of the family is satisfied, it's important to travel to the perfect locale. U.S. News, with the help of reader votes and expert opinion, gathered a list of travel destinations that offer reasonable rates and activities the whole family can enjoy. We hope you find these ideas helpful when planning your next trip, and we invite you to cast your vote for your favorite places below.
Where to stay: Book a room at the newly renovated Hyatt Regency Rochester, which is a 5-minute drive or short walk to the museum. Other family favorite hotels include the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Rochester, which features a large, indoor pool in the hotel’s atrium (plus a complimentary cookie at check in!), and the Hilton Garden Inn Rochester University & Medical Center which is connected to the new College Town shopping complex.
Why you should go: Sofia is one of Europe’s coolest overlooked capitals, with ancient ruins and salmagundi architecture in Ottoman mosques and Red Army monuments. In the past few years, its streets have proliferated with graffiti art, skateboarder girls, and shabby-chic bars where you can while away days and evenings. A city trip is easily paired with a few more days at the Black Sea on the Bulgarian Riviera. You’ll find a gorgeous seaside that rivals plenty of more-lauded Mediterranean stretches -- again but for a sweet fraction of the cost.
Why you should go: London is always a winner, but venture north to the Yorkshire Dales to experience the majestic, windswept hills of the Brontë sisters, or take a train south west to the Jurassic cliffs of seaside town West Bay, Dorset (you may recognize them from Broadchurch). Both of these options, much more budget friendly than the capital, offer England at its most beautiful. - Ruthie Darling, Thrillist contributor
A Family Zion & Bryce Hiking adventure begins in Bryce Canyon National Park, where you’ll hike to the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. The Staircase is actually a set of plateaus that lead to Lower Calf Creek Falls, where a green oasis has formed around the falling water. This is a great place to see Native American pictographs and granaries and learn about their culture. As you hike on to Zion National Park, you’ll see “hoodoos,” bright red, orange and white spires, some of which are over 200 feet tall. Legend says they were formed when ancient people behaved badly, drawing down a curse that turned them into stones. Take a refreshing dip in the Virgin River, and hike The Narrows, a stretch along the river considered one of the best hikes in the country.
Where to stay: One Ski Hill Place, a Rock Resort, is located right at the base of Peak 8 and offers multi-room suites that function like a private condo with full kitchens and living rooms, perfect for families to spread out, plus there are two indoor pools and a private two-lane bowling alley in the hotel, and free shuttle service to area restaurants.
Travel rewards credit cards are specifically designed to let a user earn points by making purchases and applying those points directly toward flights and hotels. Some travel rewards credit cards, such as the Delta SkyMiles Credit Card from American Express, are limited by affiliation with a specific travel company. If you’re not keen on sticking to one provider, there are others – including the U.S. Bank FlexPerks Visa Cards – that allow you to apply points toward a wider range of travel services. (FlexPerks is affiliated with 150 airlines, as well as many hotels, cruise lines, and rental car companies.)
Larounis also advised making a beeline to an airline club; if you don’t belong to one for your flight, buy a day pass. “When there’s a delay or cancellation, everyone rushes to the terminal agent’s customer service desk. But the airline clubs rarely have lines and they have the same capability—sometimes they’re more empowered than the agents downstairs and can bend the rules to get you on flights that look sold out.”
At Velas Resorts, an onsite Baby Concierge means you can leave cumbersome gear at home knowing that a crib, a stroller, bottle warmers and sterilizers will be waiting in your room. The service is committed to making little ones comfortable, from a massage to help soothe fussy babies to a first haircut (with a certificate) to guarantee they look sharp at dinner.
This Oregon city is a haven for outdoorsy families. During the warmer months, travelers with kids can offset pricey room rates by sticking to free attractions like Forest Park and Tom McCall Waterfront Park – the latter boasts a large water fountain for children to play in. Another option: Peruse the 2 million volumes on sale at Powell's City of Books. Read More »

Why you’ll love it: Known as “charm city,” Baltimore is an enchanting, family-friendly destination loaded with history. Families can enjoy the scenic Inner Harbor or watch a ball game down the block at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. You can also sight-see by water-taxi or climb aboard Baltimore’s own pirate ship in Fell’s Point, Fearless, to hear swashbuckling tales of adventure. The fantastically fishy National Aquarium is a must visit too!

Priceline’s “Name Your Own Price” Option. When using Priceline, you can enter the day you’d like to fly (or the day you’d like to stay at a hotel) and the price you’d like to spend. Priceline comes back with an offer of a flight or hotel, if there’s something available that meets your criteria. You find out the times of the flight and the star rating and general location of the hotel, but you won’t get to know the airline or specific hotel name until you book. Priceline claims that you can save 40% off published prices by using this method. Priceline also offers traditional booking services if you’d rather know exactly what you’re getting.
Package vacations are a great choice for effortless traveling, as they are quick and easy to book and ensure that everything will be taken care of for you. For example, if your flight is canceled, it’s the travel provider’s job to find a new flight for you. You can rest easy knowing that your vacation will be stress-free and you are protected in case of changes to your itinerary.
