We’ve been hosting generations of families for more than 80 years, and we think this is a pretty great place for all ages. Whether it’s our on-site golf course, hiking in Van Damme, playing on Van Damme Beach, riding the Skunk Train, walking the Botanical Gardens, or getting out on the water – there’s a world of experiences to be had!
There are a lot of great options for kids on our main menu, and we welcome families.
Different families have different needs, and we have many options. If you’re traveling with a larger group, you may want to look at one of our elegant Ocean View Traditional rooms with Two Queen Beds, or Ocean View Deluxe rooms with Two Queen Beds. Feel like a bit more privacy (or noise control)? Check out our two-bedroom Rosie’s Cottage. And of course, cribs are available!
