Less Time Planning, More Family Adventures

Multigenerational travel has been on the rise, as families seek to spend extended time in picturesque locations and create lasting memories, but many find the planning process challenging when trying to choose options that can satisfy everyone. The Destination by Hyatt brand’s “Roots to Reunion” program is aimed at lessening these barriers. With the help of a dedicated “Family Travel Expert” at each participating resort, families can connect more deeply with the destinations and experience them like true locals, guided by curated itineraries that showcase one-of-a-kind adventures including hidden gems, excursions, premier dining and more.

“We know today’s travelers are seeking immersive and bond-building opportunities that push them out of their comfort zones. Many travelers look to spend more time with their loved ones in unforgettable destinations, but the process of planning can be overwhelming,” said Katie Johnson, Vice President, Global Brand Leader for Hyatt’s Independent Collection brands. “This insight was the spark behind the ‘Discover Differently’ brand campaign we launched this year and why we introduced the ‘Roots to Reunion’ program to address these potential challenges with what makes the hotels within the brand different: personalized guest experiences and enriching local offerings to help reignite familial connections.”

From Sandcastles to Snow Angels: Take Multigenerational Family Travel to the Next Level

The new “Roots to Reunion” program offers a range of personalized touches designed to help multigenerational families reconnect in unique ways for a limited time:

  • Family Travel Expert: Reimagine multigenerational travel with a dedicated expert to help guide families on how to make the most of their stays, so they can focus on the most important thing – discovering and reconnecting differently.
  • Curated Itineraries: Get inspired by customizable itineraries that capture the distinct essence of each destination for families to use during stays.
  • Reunion Ready Kit: Borrow items at select properties to maximize family fun time, such as snowball makers at The Lodge at Spruce Peak or pickleball essentials at Hana-Maui Resort to enhance and complement the needs of guests of all ages.
