The 3 Best Hotels for Families in New Caledonia
1. Château Royal Beach Resort & Spa
Hotel phone: (687) 29 64 00
With a tropical holiday environment beyond city limits, this resort-like property along the sparkling coastline maintains a lively atmosphere at its divine beach and swimming pool featuring a children`s water zone. Private kitchens come standard in one-room suites suitable for one or two youngsters under 12, while two-room, two-bathroom suites conveniently house families of six. And all within a brief 15-minute commute via public transportation or taxi into downtown activities.
2. Le MĂ©ridien Noumea Resort & Spa
Hotel phone: (687) 26 50 00
Situated at the tip of an isolated peninsula in the suburbs, this resort boasts an excellent location. The wide, clean beach provides shallow, calm waters ideal for families. Also notable is the expansive pool area and beautifully landscaped tropical gardens stocked with complimentary activities. Some rooms permit one or two extra beds. Moreover, it lies just a quarter-hour away from the bustling city center via public transportation, where further diversions await.
3. L’Escapade Îlot Maître
Hotel phone: (687) 26 05 12
Authentic tropical island atmosphere, yet only 25 minutes by boat from downtown. Much natural exploring both on land and underwater, with calm waters for swimming and snorkeling among sea turtles. A range of watersports accessible. Perhaps not ideal for teenagers alone, yet enough to occupy younger ones happily for a few days. Best to avoid weekends and local school holiday periods.
