Let's plan your perfect trip

Family holidays with space to explore, time to connect, and the right balance of adventure and relaxation—tailor-made for families who want more than just a resort.

At Sundowner, we understand what makes a great family holiday. That means keeping travel days manageable, building in time to stop and explore, and always ending with a few days to relax—often somewhere with a pool and space for everyone to unwind. Whether you’re watching giraffes cross the plains in Kenya, white water rafting in Costa Rica, or learning to cook in Sri Lanka, we’ll shape a trip full of experiences that bring the family together. We use hotels that are genuinely family-friendly, and we build itineraries with the right pacing—balancing activity with downtime, variety with comfort, and always tailored to suit the age and energy of your children.

We had an amazing family holiday in South Africa and Mozambique thanks to the team at Sundowner. Each stop felt different and special, and the whole trip came together beautifully. We’ll be booking again.

The McGrath Family, South Africa & Mozambique

The Pongwe resort was a little bit of paradise. The family chalet with 2 bedrooms and stunning views over the bays with morning coffee was excellent. The food was first-class hotel standard and the staff were so friendly, I have never seen so many people smile so genuinely. It was so relaxing and we totally loved it.

The Dunn Family, Zanzibar

Sri Lanka is a truly amazing country. The people are so friendly, the food is delicious. We enjoyed all the experiences we had.

Angie Newman, Sri Lanka

Well, what an amazing country Borneo is, we absolutely loved it and probably still haven't come down to earth since we have been home.

Helen Lewis, Borneo

This was the best family holiday we have ever had. Tailored to what we wanted in beautiful and perfect accommodation that suited us. Every day was an adventure and honestly trying to find a highlight is impossible. From watching giant green turtles laying their eggs then walking back into the sea, to being woken up by howler monkeys to zip lining through the rainforest and kayaking with crocodiles.
