shangri-la’s barr al jissah al waha & al Bandar, omanShangri-La’s Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa consists of three hotels in one, three unique concepts whichhave been designed to reflect Oman’s rich blend of cultures. For couples there is no need to read on,as Al Husn is undoubtedly the hotel for you, but if you’re travelling with children then you have achoice to make…

Al Waha, the largest of the three, is perfect for families with younger kids, offering stunning swimmingpools fringed by date palms to create an oasis-style feel. It is also home to the Cool Zone Kids’ Club (4-8 yrs) and Splashpad water play area, as well as the start of the fantastic 500 metre Lazy River. You can also reserve guaranteed interconnecting rooms at Al Waha, so there’s no need to fret about the kids ending up on a different floor to you. Al Bandar, meanwhile, has larger rooms, quieter pools and a more laid-back feel, making it a better fit if you’re travelling with older children. You still have access to all the facilities atAl Waha, and the Lazy River passes through, so you can grab a rubber ring and hop right in. On top of all this, Adventure Zone and GameZ at Al Mazaar Souk provide further facilities for children and teens from both hotels.

5 nights at Al Waha from £999 per person, saving up to £578 per familyBased on 2 adults sharing a Superior Seaview Room including breakfast. Children 2-11 yrs from £585. Offers: 20% saving / Kids stay and eat free

REASONS FOR VISITING four seasons...Renowned the world over as a honeymooners’ paradise, the Maldives has another side to it that you might not have considered. Dream-like desert islands encircled by the calmest of turquoise waters, vibrant marine ecosystems teeming with colourful sea creatures and some of the finest resorts in the world make this a superb destination for families too, and nowhere is this more apparent than at the two Four Seasons resorts, Kuda Huraa and Landaa Giraavaru.

Both offer custom built accommodation for families; Kuda Huraa’s Family Beach Bungalows are perfect for those with younger children, featuring a separate room with up to two beds, plus a shaded bale outside on the decking area, great for taking a break from the sun’s rays, while Landaa Giraavaru more than matches up with its spacious Family Beach Villas. The complimentary Kids For All Seasons programme includes the Kuda Mas (‘little fish’) and Kuda Velaa (‘little turtle’) Kids’ Clubs for 4-12 yrs, and there are superb facilities for teenagers, with all the latest gadgets. The resorts also more than deliver on the promise to genuinely make learning fun; visit the Marine Discovery Centre for a fascinating insight into conservation projects such as coral reefscaping and turtle rehabilitation, or join the resort’s manta ray researchers on their boat between June – October.

So how do you choose between the two of them? Well, we haven’t quite figured that one out yet…

anantara dubai the palm dubaiAlthough it’s the over-water villas that have been grabbing all the headlines – they’re Dubai’s first ever – it would be remiss of us not to dedicate a few column inches to the family facilities on offer at this sparkling new resort on The Palm.

There are also a handful of two storey Deluxe Family Lagoon View Rooms, featuring a king bedded en-suite room for mum and dad and a second twin room for kids, although they sell out fast, so you’ll need to book well in advance to secure one of these. When you also factor in the complimentary kids’ and teens’ clubs, children’s pool and a choice of watersports including kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing and pedalos, you’ll find that you have all the ingredients for an unforgettable family escape.

Tom from our team recently returned from a stay at Cap Maison where he was wowed by the food:

We just couldn’t stop talking about the food at the Cliff at Cap restaurant. Everything from the omelettes at breakfast to the tapas at lunchtime and the five course tasting menu for dinner was sublime, each dish a work of art with wonderfully grandiloquent names like ‘A Theme on one Flavour: Pineapple’ and ‘A study on Vine Ripe Tomatoes’. If you want my advice, and if it’s still on the menu when you go, try the gooey Guayaquil chocolate fondant with vanilla pod ice cream; it takes 15 minutes for the chefs to carefully craft each one, but it’s worth the wait for that warm and fuzzy feeling of chocolatey contentedness at the end of your meal. Since my visit the hotel has opened a brand new restaurant, The Naked Fisherman, bringing the same meticulous approach to casual beach dining, and I can’t wait to go back and try it out!

HERMITAGE BAY ANTIGUAThey say that love can sometimes be a bit of a bumpy ride, though you may find yourself wondering if someone has taken that a little too literally as your taxi bounces down the unpaved road that leads to Hermitage Bay. Once you’ve made it to the hotel, however, a blissful sense of calm quickly descends. If ever there was a resort precision engineered for two people in love, then this is the one.

The stylish, contemporary suites are a masterclass in how to mould luxury accommodation to its surroundings. This is especially true with the Hillside Pool Suites, blessed with incredible views that are just asking to be enjoyed from the comfort of your plunge pool, glass of Champagne in hand. The open wooden deck also features a sublimely soft day bed and, just to prove that they really have thought of everything, there’s a curtain running round the perimeter of the deck which can be drawn when it’s just the two of you and privacy is paramount. The Garden Spa is also very romantic and is the perfect place to indulge in a sensual couple’s massage.

Canouan is one of the lesser known of the Grenadines, that string of beguiling `emerald islands to the south of St Vincent, and it’s this relative obscurity that lends `it such an air of barefoot escapism. Tamarind Beach is a charming and romantic boutique hotel that sits in perfect equilibrium with its surroundings, a stylish and characterful desert island des res.

However, if you feel like being a little less lazy, then take to the water and you’ll find a fantastic range of watersports available, including thrilling speedboat or catamaran rides to nearby islands. And to cap it all, the hotel is Italian owned and managed, meaning that the food here is excellent - you must try the home-made ice cream and the delicious fresh pizzas from Pirate Cove, an authentic taste of la dolce vita.

The spa’s tranquil reception area, decked out in cool whites and subtle greys, overlooks the azure expanse of the Caribbean Sea, with an ambience that immediately invites you to exhale, relax, and submit yourself to the pampering that is to follow. Choose from a carefully compiled menu of invigorating treatments, making use of the finest Elemis products, and don’t forget to make an appointment at the salon, so that you not only feel fabulous, but look fabulous too. Making guests feel good is what makes the staff here tick, all part of the winning formula that ensures that Blue Waters remains one of the best loved hotels in the entire Caribbean.

SUGAR BEACH, A VICEROY RESORT SAINT LUCIASaint Lucia is an island renowned for its natural beauty, a craggy, heaving mass of jagged peaks, dramatic valleys and sweeping bays, layered thick with richly green jungle. So it seems apposite that one of the island’s finest resorts, Sugar Beach, should embrace the surrounding landscape so fully, with its luxurious villas scattered down the hillside and a soothing spa hidden amongst the trees.

Housed in treehouse-style bungalows joined by wooden walkways, the Rainforest Spa is a magical place to take a treatment. The sounds of the forest and the trickling stream will lull you into a state of serene, soporific bliss, and that’s before the expert therapists have even gone to work on those tense muscles and stressed out skin. Harnessing the restorative properties of the nearby volcanic springs and fertile cocoa plantations, the spa offers a menu of indulgent signature rituals with products by Environ, Academie France and Saint Lucia’s own Green Papaya. And to help you decide which treatments are right for you, the spa experience co-ordinators are on hand to discuss your requirements, and to ensure that you emerge from your cabin feeling refreshed, revitalised and reborn.
