4 Hotels in South Africa Where Kids Stay Free
Let’s be honest, travelling with kids doesn’t sound too great. Images of screaming kids, mopping up messes, and dissipating tantrums doesn’t quite promote the idea of a relaxing getaway, but then you’d be doing your getaway all wrong! Do it right with these amazing holiday packages where the whole family is taken care of and the little ones can get stuck into exciting kiddies’ activities leaving you and your partner to take it easy. Even better than all that? Finding awesome deals where kids stay free! Take a look at these 4 hotels where you’ve got one less thing to worry about – paying for your kids:
1. ULUSABA
Fancy a safari holiday at Sir Richard Branson’s private game lodge? Ulusaba, which means ‘place of little fear’, lies on top of a hill just outside of Kruger National Park and is an award winning, five star game lodge that was voted as the number 1 resort in Africa in the Condé Nast Traveler Reader’s Choice Awards in 2016 and was ranked as the third best resort in the world! But if you thought you couldn’t possibly bring the kids along, think again!
Referred to as ‘cubs’, kids aged from 0 – 11 years get to stay at Ulusaba for free until the 21st December 2017. Up to two children travelling with one or more adults can stay at Rock Lodge at no extra charge, while getting to partake in tailored kiddies’ programmes at the Cub’s Club. Cubs over the age of 6 can even join their parents on game drives!
