Planning a family getaway should be exciting, not overwhelming. At Kahuana, we believe that a great escape isn’t just about where you go—it’s about how you feel while you’re there. Whether you’re seeking sun-drenched beach days, fun-filled adventures, or simply quality time together, our guide will help you plan a seamless and stress-free family holiday.
Find the Perfect Stay
Choosing the right accommodation sets the tone for your entire trip. Opt for a home that caters to your family’s needs, whether it’s a spacious beachfront retreat with room to play or a cosy hideaway with kid-friendly amenities. Our Kahuana escapes are thoughtfully designed to ensure comfort, convenience, and a touch of luxury—so you can focus on making memories instead of managing logistics. If you’re unsure whether a property is the right fit, our team is always happy to discuss your needs and assist in finding the perfect stay. Whether you need a home with a fenced yard for little ones, a layout that suits multi-generational families or proximity to family-friendly attractions, we’re here to help make your escape as seamless as possible.
Plan, but Don’t Overplan
While a rough itinerary helps keep things organised, the best family holidays leave room for spontaneity. Strike a balance between planned activities and relaxed moments. Start your day with a beach walk or a leisurely breakfast on the deck, then decide whether it’s time for a coastal adventure or an afternoon of unwinding by the pool. Having flexible options ensures everyone gets to enjoy the trip at their own pace. At Kahuana, once a booking is confirmed, guests have access to their personal guest portal, which includes a curated list of both indoor and outdoor activities across the Central Coast. Whether the sun is shining, or the weather calls for a cosy indoor adventure, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from, ensuring a stress-free holiday no matter what.
Pack Smart, Pack Light
Packing doesn’t have to be a headache. Keep it simple with versatile clothing, sun protection, and a few must-have travel essentials. At Kahuana, we offer additional booking options such as highchairs, travel cots, bed rails, seasonal upsells and much more—so you can pack lighter and travel easier. We know that travelling with little ones means extra gear, and our goal is to provide families with the flexibility to travel light without compromising on convenience. By offering these extras, we help ensure that everything you need is ready set up upon arrival, so you can settle in and start enjoying your holiday from the moment you walk through the door.
Make Mealtime Easy
A well-stocked kitchen can be a lifesaver on a family holiday. Take advantage of local markets to pick up fresh produce, snacks, and easy meal options. Many of our homes feature outdoor BBQs and spacious dining areas, perfect for family feasts. And if you’d rather leave the cooking to someone else, explore nearby restaurants or arrange a private chef for a special dining experience.
To make dining even easier, we’ve listed several breakfast, lunch, and dinner options in the Kahuana guest portal, including concierge services for a private chef. If guests prefer to cook themselves but don’t want to start their holiday by packing items into the fridge, freezer, and pantry, they can take advantage of our ‘Pick up & Pack Service’ and arrive to a fully stocked kitchen, ready to enjoy from the moment they walk in.
Savour the Moments, Enjoy the Journey
The best memories often come from the simplest moments—building sandcastles, watching the sunset, or playing board games in the evening. A stress-free escape is about embracing these experiences, letting go of routines, and immersing yourself in the rhythm of your holiday. Whether it’s a weekend retreat or an extended getaway, your time together should feel effortless and joyful.
Our team is here to help you craft the ultimate family escape—one where every detail is taken care of so you can simply enjoy. Ready to plan your next getaway? Let’s make it one to remember.
