Ritz Kids® is an engaging and immersive experience that builds upon the adventures of travel your child will always treasure. Ritz Kids is for children between the ages of 5 and 12. Leveraging our exclusive partnership with Jean-Michel Cousteau’s Ocean Futures Society and his unique environmental expertise, we’ve crafted experiences that appeal to your child’s innate love of discovery and sense of curiosity. Your child is exposed to an array of environmentally focused activities that foster interaction with the world in which they live. The content is as diverse as the natural world around us, and is tailored specifically to intrigue and thrill bright young minds.
Ritz Kids is designed upon four key pillars:
- Water: Emphasizes the importance of sea life and health.
- Land: Encourages exploration and discovery.
- Environmental Responsibility: Promotes our role in the health of our planet for the future.
- Culture: Exposes young minds to a variety of art forms, including music, local customs and history, as well as cuisine.
Watch with a smile as your child explores and grows through Ritz Kids during your stay. They unearth a personal connection, respect and appreciation for the world, make amazing discoveries that will last a lifetime and remain passionate and inspired long after your stay with us comes to an end.
RESORT EXPERIENCES
As Jean-Michel Cousteau says, “All kids start out as scientists, constantly asking ‘Why? What’s that? How does it work?’” Ritz Kids taps into that innate curiosity by introducing our youngest guests to both the natural wonders and the rich cultural traditions of our resort locations. Immersive and adventurous, the resort experiences provide your child with enthralling activities to reward their interest in the beauty and workings of the world we live in. With a diverse collection of activities based on the four pillars of the program – water, land, environmental responsibility and culture – kids are swept away by everything from coral reefs and forests, to recycling and sustainability, storytelling, art and even food.
From the moment of arrival, we welcome kids to The Ritz-Carlton by encouraging them to explore the sights and sounds of the resort and its environment. Guided by playfulness and a sense of wonder, Ritz Kids delights and engages your children to interact with their surroundings in a fresh and exciting way.
