Memories of my childhood family holidays are still vivid and they were a long, long time ago. Parents and their children do things together through the day making it different and special. It is a carefree time and in this wonderful country with masses of outdoor options, you are spoiled for choice.

Areena Riverside Resort Crawfords Beach Lodge
Generally for kids, space to play and explore, swim, ride, walk are popular with beach and mountains suiting all ages. With non-stop interest, the game reserves are unbeatable but youngsters are confined to the vehicle, so it depends on your tribe and their ages.
Plains game reserves with dams or rivers are great for active offspring as they get the bush feel with wildlife around them and have the freedom to explore without Big 5 game reserve predator concerns.

Roger’s Mpande Beach Cottage-idyllic. Doolittle Cottage-also great for kids

The Sugar Shack-Beach & Pool-perfect Silver Streams-, ride, walk & swim
We are spoiled for choice in our national reserves. You can stay in their simple chalets, and caravan or camp at many. Hotels generally accommodate families. Some, however, have the location, activities and style that helps to enhance time out with your kids. Growingly popular, self-catering is the home away from home situation, but of course, not without parental effort… especially Mom’s effort! We have filtered through and selected some special places to stay for a rounded family holiday, both catered for and self-catering, from 5 star luxury to budget friendly caravanning.

Tintswalo Safari -a great kids programme. Botlierskop have a lodge dedicated to families.

Umngazi Hotel & Spa Cape Vidal Bungalows and Camping
Looking at areas… the Wild Coast is pure heaven for family time out. There are relaxed family hotels, and self-catering cottages right on the coast so you are exactly where you need to be for both relaxing and activities such as swimming, walking, fishing and rock pool exploring. Along with KZN, the Wild Coast is cost effective for family budgets too.
Enjoy our choices and very happy holidays and sauntering!
