"Family First": Melia Chiang Mai Launches Exciting Experience For All Ages

With screens seemingly ubiquitous nowadays, the "Family First" package encourages families to switch off and engage with each other in the present. The package is underpinned by a stay at the hotel's double 54sqm Family Room featuring city views of Chiang Mai, a sofa bed, separate sitting area, ensuite bathroom, puzzles and board games, a children's tent and toys.

Adjacent to the hotel's expansive outdoor swimming pool on the second floor and Tien Pool Bar, a shallow watery playground area for the kids is home to two water slides, a rain curtain, water fountains and a giant tipping bucket.

The YHI Spa's menu features treatments for women, men and children such as massages that aim to combat cellulite, ease muscle tension and prevent hyperactivity respectively. For children aged six to 12 years, a 45-minute or 60-minute "Kids Therapy" aims to prevent hyperactivity by starting with stretching and animal yoga poses before a gentle massage with HARNN coconut oils to stop skin irritation. YHI Spa's treatments are based on organic Thai wellness brand HARNN's products, made with natural ingredients via methods handed down the generations of Thai artisans.

The award-winning hotel's vast kids and teens club Kidsdom's program is filled with hand-on activities such as Thai boxing, umbrella painting, plaster model painting, arts and craft with recycled materials and origami.

Kidsdom is made up of various sections including a 'gaming zone' offering Chess, Monopoly, Uno, Jenga, Tic-tac-toe, table football, and other games, and a 'teen club zone' featuring a drawing board, watercolours, colouring pencils and crayons, and painted plaster dolls.
