Westin La Paloma Resort & Spa in Tucson, Arizona, previously a winner of FTF’s Top 10 Getaways for Tiny Travelers award, get a fresh look in 2015.
The Old West meets the New West in Tucson, a sun-kissed metropolis that’s as kicked back as it is urban savvy. And you won’t find a better place to savor this appealing blend of past and present than at the Westin La Paloma Resort & Spa. Nestled in the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains, the Westin showcases its spectacular Sonoran Desert setting – we’re talking classic cowboy-film scenery, with towering saguaro cacti dotting rugged mountains – while providing an oasis in which to enjoy the backdrop in complete comfort, with personalized and friendly service.
At the contemporary, architecturally-striking La Paloma, families enjoy five pools, including one with a swim-up bar and “Slidewinder,” which, at 177 feet, is Arizona’s longest waterslide. Weekend evenings, when it cools off, complimentary family movies are played poolside and can be enjoyed from a chaise lounge, or while floating on an inflatable raft, munching popcorn from the swim-up bar. Other activities to enjoy together include waterslide contests and water volleyball. Excellent golf on a 27-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature course, a large tennis center, health center and the Red Door Spa by Elizabeth Arden are available for adults.
Westin Kids’ Club, in place at all Westin hotels and resorts, features welcome gifts and in-room amenities upon request, such as cribs, highchairs, and bed-rails. Only at La Paloma is there childcare from age 6 months to 12 years in the Discovery Room, where activities for toddlers include block building, storytime, arts’n’crafts, scavenger hunts and an outdoor play yard with riding toys. It is open daily from 9am to 5pm and three evenings until 9pm. Caregivers, screened by the hotel, have previous childcare experience and training in CPR. Babies from 6 to 11 months of age are welcome to attend for a maximum of two hours a day, and toddlers, ages 1 to 3-years, are welcome for a maxium of 4 hours a day. Age-appropriate activities (video games, movies and word association games) are available for older kid who are welcome for full days. Moms and Dads can enjoy some alone time while the kids are at the Discover Room, but they must remain on-property.
The Westin La Paloma is also a dog-friendly resort, so if Fido needs some rest and relaxation, bring him along.

We certainly understand your concerns because Lady Gaga's clothing and style can shock anyone of any age. However, you might not be aware that she is a champion fund raiser for AIDS Awareness, has been active in gay rights issues, actively supports our troops, and has been a philanthropist to all sorts of causes.
For many girls, as well, her outrageous style, fierce independence, intelligence and undeniable success are very inspiring. We believe the exhibits at Mme Tussauds will be a big success.
Do you individuals have a fb fan page? I looked for one on twitter but couldn't discover one, I would love to turn out to be a fan!
As a parent of two young boys I don't find anything positive about Lady Gaga. It is sad that FTF is promoting her. Her dress and her comments do more to harm young children then help.
It is understandable that the Brits would promote her but I guess I expected better from an organization like FTF.
Family travel forum gave me a lot of useful information for my intentions.
I wanted to thank you for this superb read!! I definitely enjoying every little bit of it smile I have you bookmarked to make sure out new things you post.
Great solution to everyday traveling problems. If you manage things on first hand they will be a lot more simple.
It doesnt' matter whether the driver is a teen or adult when a rental car is damaged. Both are covered by your automobile insurance or extra policy from the rental company. The difference is that teens and drivers under 26 in general have to pay more to get insurance on rental cars.
However, some companies like Budget now let teens rent for regular rates if they get a letter from an employer that they are using the car for work and that the employer has extra insurance for them.
What are the charges if the car will get some damage.
It would be really nice if you could make a post where this information would be displayed for the 10 most traveled countries. Just an idea. Best regards.
I'm planning a vacation on this beautiful country, I think its one amazing place that has to discover. Beaches, kind people and all that you can ask for!

This is a wonderfully thoughtful concept! What a charming git for an expectant mother. I know my wife really struggled with the stress and un-comfortability of her pregnancy and I often felt myself at a loss for what to do to help her relax. Now I guess I have my answer – a pregnancy spa holiday!
