For a few nights, we embraced the later bedtime and giggly sibling convos.

Hereโ€™s what made this one stand out: โœจPOOLS AND BEACH DONE RIGHT โ€“ Shallow shelves perfect for little ones, never crowded, and a beach with wide soft sand + safe waves (rare on Mexicoโ€™s west coast). โœจFAMILY ACCOMMODATIONS WORTH THE SPLURGE โ€“ Every room is designed to impress, but the villas + residences take it next level. Space to spread out, plus private touches like in-villa dining that make family resorts go from good to unforgettable. โœจ BUTLER SERVICES โ€“ Villa guests get a dedicated butler, basically an extra set of hands. Service was flawless. โœจ KIDS CLUBโ€“ My kids begged to go everyday. They built terrariums, made their own kites, and even learned how to weave. The Lego wall was a hit. โœจ DELICIOUS FOOD โ€“ Fresh, yummy, beautifully presentedโ€ฆ same for the kidsโ€™ menu. For families dreaming of Mexico, Susurros is one of those family resorts that truly delivers luxury for parents AND magic for kids. ๐Ÿ’Œ Want to experience it yourself?

$30 quesadillas arenโ€™t my vibe. ๐Ÿ‘Ž Did you kn $30 quesadillas arenโ€™t my vibe. ๐Ÿ‘Ž Did you know that @auberge runs a seasonal perk where kids eat free (10 and under!) โ€” and the food is actually REALLY good. Itโ€™s the kind of kidsโ€™ menu where you secretly want to order off yourself. Thatโ€™s a big deal because most luxury hotels only let kids eat free if theyโ€™re 5 and under. If youโ€™ve got older littles with big appetites, this perk can save families a lot while still dining at 5-star properties. Weโ€™ve stayed at several Auberge resorts and love how each feels special:โ€จโœจ @susurrosauberge in Punta de Mita (my kidsโ€™ favorite kidsโ€™ club + beachside dining)โ€จโœจ @altagraciaauberge in Costa Rica (adventure in the mountains)โ€จโœจ @mayfloweraubergein Connecticut (perfect for a cozy family weekend escape) And the kids menu isnโ€™t just chicken fingers and fries.
