Located near the Grand Canyon, families can book Jeep tours and hiking and plenty of outdoor adventures the resort offers, including swimming, mountain-biking, playing croquet, pitch & putt golf and tennis.
The resort’s Camp Coyote program offers children the opportunity to go on nature walks, pottery sculpting, star gazing, obstacle courses, scavenger hunts and painting. The resort’s family package offers three or more nights and includes breakfast for four each morning and spa service for adults. Packages start from $803 per night.
