New Rooms Put Family First at Rydges Esplanade Cairns

Rydges Esplanade Cairns

Mum, dad and the kids are destined to love the innovative and exciting new family style accommodation at Rydges Esplanade in Cairns, Queensland, Ausdtralia.  Packed to the hilt with features that hit the high notes with both adults and children, the result is a practical, well considered design marrying the latest in comfort and technology with expansive, ocean views of the Coral Sea.

Rydges Esplanade’s General manager, Steven Oakley said as Cairns’ ‘family’ market continues to thrive, so too does the need to provide appropriate accommodation that goes further than offering token features, but really thinks about the differing needs of a family.

“We are delighted to release our first family focused accommodation that successfully integrates features for both adults and children of all ages.  As a hotelier and father, I understand the frustrations of family travel and feel confident we have come up with a winning design.”

According to Mr Oakley, Rydges Esplanade’s new family accommodation is all about providing mum and dad with a relaxing environment with a separate area for kid’s sleeping and entertainment.

For parents, the highlight of this room is the superior comfort of a Rydges’ Dream Bed that faces the stunning, panoramic views of the ocean.  “Mum and dad can kick back and relax, watch some TV or feast on the view while the kids play to their hearts content in their own dedicated area,” said Steven.

The kids are bound to give the thumbs up to their ‘domain’ that incorporates funky, custom-designed bunk beds.  Up or down, each bed features its own, personal 15” LCD television.  Add to this, each is linked to an X-Box allowing split-screen gaming or DVD viewing.  Additional content can be streamed to the televisions via personal Ipads or Ipods.  A third, smaller bed cum day bed is also included in the children’s nook.

“The best addition is arguably the separate head phone function attached to each child’s bed head console enabling silent entertainment.  You have to love that!” commented Steven.
