America's Best Family Hotels The Walt Disney Company Upgrade your next family vacation with a stay at one of these hotels from Florida to Hawaii. From November 2014 By Helen Zook Quick: imagine you and the kids in Hawaii. Hiking to a waterfall. Snorkeling through a lagoon. Lounging beachside. Dining at a luau. Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa on Oahu, makes this kind of family vacation seem surprisingly easy, from the bassinets and baby-proofed balconies in most rooms to the complimentary kids’ club and volcano-themed pool area with a lazy river. And that luau? You’ll be joined by Mickey and friends. T+L readers found Aulani’s combination of Hawaiian cultural touches, kid-friendly activities, and a spectacular beach setting to be pretty magical, ranking it America’s No. 1 hotel for families in our annual World’s Best Awards survey. Overall, the top 25 hotels range from coast to coast, mountaintops to valleys, each offering plush, spacious accommodations and fun for both kids and grown-ups. A day at the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort & Spa in Austin, TX, might begin with horseback rides and end with s’mores by the campfire—or Moonshine Margaritas at Shellers Barrelhouse Bar. In West Virginia, the Greenbrier hosts an indoor arena for games of laser tag on its historic 10,000-acre property. And just down the road from Epcot, Disney’s Boardwalk Inn and Villas features a strip of old-fashioned arcade games and a Fantasia-inspired miniature golf course.
