Pattaya
I wish my Mum and Dad had taken me to Pattaya when I was a kid - I
would have thought it was great!
Pattaya is a Mecca for kids and whilst, of course, you hope that it
doesn’t rain, if it does it won’t be all long faces and non-stop
complaining because there’s loads to do inside as well. In case of a "down
pour", a visit to Ripley's "Believe it or Not" museum is both interesting
and educational. Plus, Pattaya also boasts a 3D cinema, Lazer Quest,
arcades with computer games and a multitude of cinemas showing the latest
box office hits. There is even a "mini fun fair" with dodgems, not to
mention the several bowling alleys.
All this and we haven’t even mentioned the undeniable attraction for
children of building sand castles and burying Dad! Plus a great seafront
to stroll along and uncountable ice creams to eat.

Don’t forget, if your kids are not wild on Thai food then, the we can
make up picnic boxes for you to take with you on your travels, with things
in which you can be sure that they’ll eat.
Child Friendly Accommodation
Even though there is so much to do outside the hotel, the temptation is
to never leave the grounds. The Amari
Orchid Resort , has 10 acres
of tropical gardens with a children’s play area with swings and climbing
frame, swimming pool with slide and tennis courts for the older kids.
Inside the grounds, the kids are totally safe so you can relax knowing
that you need not be watching them every 5 minutes. Many families come to
the resort so the chances are after 10 minutes you will be forgotten as
they have adventures with their new friends.
To make life easy, there is a "Big C" supermarket just behind the hotel
so there is no problem stocking up on "baby essentials" such as formula
and diapers which take up a lot of room in the suitcase.
Of course we also have all the necessities such as baby sitting, cots
and high chairs are available upon request, plus the hotel can arrange all
of the activities mentioned in this section, including the transportation.
We know how many things you have to carry if you have small children so if
you do fancy making a trip somewhere, somebody to drive you and unload it
all will make it painless regardless of how many "essentials" follow
you. |
