Ask our 24/7 booking agents about babysitting before you travel, especially if you want an evening to yourselves at the spa or restaurant.
Choose a family room type when you book, and check the room details for the view and bath features you care about, such as a hot tub or terrace.
Plan active mornings and slower afternoons: all three resorts offer hiking and horse riding, with extras such as canoeing, cycling or bike tours, so rest time by the pool or in the hot spring bath helps tired legs.
All three resorts have an airport shuttle, so ask about transfer arrangements when you book if you're arriving with luggage and children.
