This bespoke programme aims to provide unforgettable holidays that the entire family will love. St. Regis Hotels and Resorts will take care of each member of your family, including the kids.

Each St. Regis hotel or resort is also supplied with family necessities like strollers, baby wipes, cribs, and more, so you don’t have to worry if you forget any essentials. Additionally, the concierge team at each hotel and resort maintains a list of qualified local agencies that can provide expert care for young guests in the convenience of their guestroom.
Families that are part of the Family Traditions Programme will have access to childcare services, butler services, and a wide range of dining options – including private dining 24 hours a day (including children’s menus).
