Beaches Resorts + #FamilyTravelCA = Paradise.

November 22, 2014 By Lena

Brrr. Baby, it’s cold outside. And while the wind howls and the snow dusts the ground, I have thoughts of long sandy beaches, warm turquoise waters and drinks with tiny umbrellas.

Sounds like the perfect time for a #FamilyTravelCA Twitter Chat!

Have you ever taken your family on a luxury all inclusive vacation? It’s an opportunity to spend quality time with the ones you love most, push yourself out of your comfort zone and seek out new adventures, and connect as a family on an entirely new level.

Often, while living – even temporarily – in the lap of luxury.

This month, we’ve teamed up with Beaches Resorts to chat about the ultimate all inclusive for everyone. From the 7-mile beach at Long Bay in Negril to the white-sand beach in Ocho Rios, Jamaica is the next entry on my family travel bucket list… and I’m looking squarely at you, Beaches Resorts. With more quality inclusions than any other resort, Beaches Resorts offers luxurious accommodations, kids programs, unlimited land and water sports, gourmet dining choices and more!

If you can dream it, you can probably find it at a Beaches Resort.

Join us on Tuesday, November 25th at 12:00 pm EST as we chat about the best of Beaches Resorts, including watersports, the many dining options, accommodations and of course, the Red Lane Spa.

Luxury Travel: Four Seasons Toronto

June 13, 2014 By Lena

It’s rare that one has the opportunity to experience a destination, luxury hotel – in the heart of their own city. The Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, soaring 55 storeys in Toronto’s most glamorous quarter, blends warm sophistication with spectacular design.

This weekend, my family will be embarking on a family staycation at the Four Seasons. Here, we’ll enjoy family-friendly amenities without sacrificing refinement; we’ll explore the city’s most lavish surroundings while making lasting memories. On our agenda: a romantic dinner for mom and dad (sans kids!) at Café Boulud; an in-room family movie night; breakfast in bed; an aromatherapy massage at The Spa  for mom while dad and the kids enjoy the pool; lunch at d|bar, and more. Follow #FamilyTravelCA on Twitter as I chronicle our adventures in luxury family travel.

Before I pack, I wanted to share with you a little “taste” of what’s in store for us at Café Boulud tonight. My husband has followed the career of Chef Daniel Boulud for years; a renowned Michelin-starred French chef and restaurateur, he effortlessly pairs the cosmopolitan flavours of Toronto’s diverse cultures with classic and contemporary French dishes. On the menu –

CRISPY DUCK EGG with button mushrooms, glazed onions, smoked bacon and parsley.
