Wellbeing for the whole family...

Family wellbeing is health and wellbeing for the whole family! It involves creating an environment and lifestyle that supports physical, mental and emotional health for everyone in the family, both children and their parents. Resorts that we listed within 'Family Wellbeing' offer a wide range of facilities specifically focussing on mainly teenagers and sometimes young children too. A hotel can be considered 'teenage friendly' when it offers amenities, facilities and services that cater specifically to the needs and preferences of young adults. Think of a junior club, sport facilities or sport academy, sport facilities, healthy food options, kids pool or connecting doors. As PureandCure's health and wellbeing resorts mainly carry an adults-only stamp, we decided to mainly focus on young adults or teenagers, from 12 years and above. Overall, It should provide a safe, fun and comfortable environment for families traveling with children.
