A World to Explore
Ritz Kids

Kids approach the world with their eyes wide open — and when they’re exposed to a new place, that gaze is even wider. At The Ritz-Carlton, we relish introducing our youngest guests to the world around them, and take every effort to inspire and engage them.

Adventure awaits around every corner with Ritz Kids®, a program specially designed to bring our unique destinations to life with locally inspired environmental and cultural experiences. Through hands-on cooking classes, kid-sized afternoon teas, nature exploration, scavenger hunts, arts and crafts, and more, kids engage with the destination — and with each other.

The fun doesn’t end when the activities wrap for the day, however. With menus tailored to kids’ tastes, destination-themed activity books, playgrounds, family pools and in-room “camping” experiences, the exploration lasts from morning to night — and from check-in to check-out.

Ritz Kids programming will vary by property. Visit the hotel website or contact the property to learn more.
