We round up the top hotels for family holidays, whether the little ones want to sleep in a treehouse, take care of horses on a ranch, fly on a trapeze, climb aboard a pirate ship or monitor injured turtles. Plus: snorkelling expeditions, boat trips, swimming lessons and lazy rivers for water babies.
Soneva Fushi, Maldives
This isn't any ordinary den like you'd make with sticks in the wood. Instead, The Den at Soneva Fushi is a two-storey timber building with its own eight-metre high pirate ship, two swimming pools for different ages, a waterslide, library and cinema. There's also a music room where kids can try out local instruments, a lego room, a dressing-up room and a kitchen for learning how to make smoothies.
