Give the Kids Their Own Room

Thursday September 18, 2003
Traveling with kids always presents challenges. My son goes to bed around 8:00, and I like to stay up a bit later. When you're sharing one hotel room, that's not easy to do. Coral by Hilton, all-inclusive resorts in the Dominican Republic, have a unique solution. They're offering adjoining rooms for half the regular price.
Tennis courts are free after dark, so you might even be able to sneak out and play a few sets. And the minibar is stocked with free bottled water, soda and Presidente beer.

Calling All Kids: With Coral by Hilton’s Family Fling Sale Tykes Tagalong Free!

Adjoining Rooms Half-Off, Free Fully Stocked Mini Bar & Eco-Friendly Kids Club Round Out the Deal!

Miami, FL -- 09.02.03 – Coral by Hilton celebrates families this year by throwing a Family Fling sale where children 12 and under stay, play and eat for free at any of the four all-inclusive idyllic Coral by Hiltons, all located in the Dominican Republic, when sharing a room with parents.* For moms and dads craving their own island hideaway, Coral by Hilton serves up an adjoining room for kids 17 and under for an impressive half off. As always, all Coral by Hilton guests enjoy accommodations, meals, all beverages (even the alcoholic ones!), snacks, non-motorized water sports, nightly entertainment and more for one all-inclusive price. This Family Fling sale is valid September 4 through December 23, 2003. Rates start from $79 per person, per night, double occupancy. **

Year-round, kids come first at Coral by Hilton in the Coralin Kidz Paradise where from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily kids are entertained with a busy itinerary of sports clinics, pool parties, arts and crafts, mini golf and more (allowing for plenty of adult-time for parents!). Continuing to cater to kids, and also to do something for the environment, the resort family adopted Kidz Paradise mascot Coralin, a rhinoceros iguana. Coral by Hilton and Kidz Paradise, through eco- and earth-friendly programs -- and even by creating activity books for kids with Coralin’s image -- have teamed up to protect this endangered species and increase awareness in travelers big and, in this case, small.

Coral by Hilton further sweetens the deal by serving up new upgrades such as mini bars stocked with bottled water, soda and Presidente, the signature beer of the Dominican Republic, and free access to nighttime tennis courts.

Book a Family Fling at any Coral by Hilton through a travel professional. For more information visit www.coralbyhilton.com.
