Thus, <strong>booking the right accommodation<\/strong>, which is safe and suitable for all family needs, is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Especially when traveling with young children, there are decisions that must be well thought out and some points that cannot fail. Staying in a hotel is no longer mandatory and today there are several alternatives available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the <strong>destination<\/strong>, length of stay and the age of your children, there are some essential tips for booking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/en\/rentals\/holidays-rentals-rentals-e0\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accommodation<\/a>&nbsp;when traveling with children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>1. <strong>Explore apartments and holiday homes offer<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>offer of accommodation<\/strong>&nbsp;has changed radically. If a few years ago the best option was to stay in a hotel, today the reality is quite different. Before embarking on your <strong>family adventure<\/strong>, and after having already defined your destination, explore the offer of apartments and holiday homes with <a href=\"https:\/\/apartamentos.feelporto.com\/en-covid-19-feel-porto\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clean &amp; Safe seal<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are traveling with very young children, choosing a <strong>local accommodation<\/strong>, where they can have more privacy and a fully equipped kitchen, will certainly make them feel at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another tip to consider when planning a <strong>family vacation<\/strong>&nbsp;is to think about the period of stay. If the trip is long, definitely the best option is to stay in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/en\/rentals\/holidays-rentals-rentals-e0\/tag-family-groups\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">apartment or house<\/a>&nbsp;that provides all the amenities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. <strong>If you book online, see photos<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before deciding and booking accommodation, look carefully at pictures of the place. Typically, the <strong>booking websites<\/strong>&nbsp;provide some pictures to make it easier for <strong>guests<\/strong>&nbsp;to choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need any further clarification, contact the <strong>accommodation company<\/strong>&nbsp;directly and clarify any doubts. Traveling with children makes it even more important to have all the useful information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>3. <strong>Check all the amenities included<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When traveling with children, there are a number of <strong>amenities<\/strong>&nbsp;that you should consider. If you book an apartment to host the whole family, it is very important to evaluate the conditions of the space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to being <strong>spacious<\/strong>&nbsp;and <strong>comfortable<\/strong>, look for accommodations provided with <strong>towels<\/strong>&nbsp;and <strong>sheets<\/strong>, a fully equipped <strong>kitchen<\/strong>&nbsp;to prepare some meals at home, washing machines and dryers, extra beds, <strong>cribs, heating, air conditioning, wireless and television<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If traveling in the summer, you can also consider looking for a house with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/blog\/en\/local-accomodation\/holiday-homes-pool\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pool or terrace<\/a>&nbsp;for children to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>4. <strong>Choose a central accommodation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are thinking of traveling with small kids, you may want to opt for <strong>central accommodation<\/strong>. Being close to the main places to visit, namely restaurants and some attractions, is always an advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to rent a car to facilitate travel, also consider <strong>parking<\/strong>&nbsp;options when booking accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>5. <strong>Make your reservation directly with the operator<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many <strong>platforms<\/strong>&nbsp;for booking accommodation, namely booking websites that add different options and allow you to compare offers. However, it is advisable to book the accommodation directly with the operator to get a lower price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>6. <strong>Look for accommodation with extra services<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The logistics of traveling with children is always enormous. So, if you can count on extra help, you will certainly be grateful. Try to book accommodation with a company that offers other services, such as <strong>transfers<\/strong>&nbsp;to and from the airport, <strong>babysitting<\/strong>, breakfast delivery, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>7. <strong>Remember that traveling with children should be fun<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you start planning your family vacation, think about some <strong>activities<\/strong>&nbsp;to spend the most time together. There are several things you can do besides going to the <strong>beach<\/strong>&nbsp;and <strong>picnicking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make it easier, some accommodation companies &#8211; such as Feel Porto &#8211; offer guests the possibility to organize <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/en\/experiences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">experiences<\/a>&nbsp;suitable for families. Having this service and the help of professionals can be a great advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>Feel Porto<\/strong>, in addition to booking accommodation under the <strong>Clean &amp; Safe<\/strong>&nbsp;seal, you can count on a team of professionals dedicated and ready to help you in all aspects of your trip. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Make your reservation<\/a>&nbsp;and discover the services and experiences available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-1 wp-block-buttons aligncenter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.feelporto.com\/en\/\" style=\"background-color:#009bd2;color:#ffffff\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BOOK WITH FEEL PORTO<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traveling with children is fun but requires a lot of organization.
