With its easy access from Bangkok’s international airports, an ever-expanding roster of world-class attractions, and an increasing number of kid-friendly properties, Pattaya is fast establishing itself as one of Southeast Asia’s best destinations for families. And Meliá Pattaya Hotel, which debuted on February 14 this year, is emerging as a leading light in this evolution.
At the heart of Melia Pattaya’s offering for younger guests is The Kidsdom, a dedicated space where children can unleash their creativity and energy. The schedule features a rotating menu of engaging activities such as plaster doll painting, whale headband craft, balloon art, paper mosaics, and even shell keychain workshops, all designed for kids aged 4 to 12. Interactive group activities like Jenga games and bracelet fancy-making further encourage social play and imagination.
“At Melia Pattaya, we believe that happy kids mean happy parents,” said Javier Gimeno, General Manager of Melia Pattaya. “Our curated Kidsdom program is designed not just to keep children entertained, but to enrich their stay through creativity, play, and cultural connections. It’s part of our wider mission to ensure every member of the family feels at home.”
Families can also enjoy a dedicated kids’ pool, conveniently located next to the resort’s main pool, so parents can relax while little ones splash under the sun. Mealtimes are equally family-friendly, with children’s menus available at both Saneh Sarae and LAY Beach Club. At LAY Beach Club, families can dine on Mediterranean and Thai dishes by the sea, while the hydro bar and beachfront vibe create the perfect setting to spend the day together. For more intimate meals, Yitong Chinese Restaurant offers authentic cuisine in a warm atmosphere — the very name “Yitong” meaning togetherness in Chinese.
With these facilities, Melia Pattaya is answering the call of a new generation of travelers: families seeking quality time together without compromise. Parents can indulge in wellness treatments or linger over leisurely meals knowing their children are engaged in safe, supervised, and stimulating activities.
“The new Melia Pattaya represents our brand’s vision of delivering experiences where families connect more deeply,” added Gimeno. “Together with Pattaya’s growing reputation as a hub for family holidays — from cultural attractions to water parks and wildlife experiences — we’re proud to be playing a role in transforming how people view this dynamic destination.”
Just 1.5 hours from Bangkok by road, Pattaya is emerging as a compelling alternative to longer-haul resort getaways. Easy accessibility, combined with attractions such as cartoon-themed waterparks, aquariums, and cultural shows, makes the city an ideal choice for parents who want both convenience and variety. With the addition of Melia Pattaya’s comprehensive family offerings, the city now boasts one more reason to be on every family traveller’s map.
