"To be a standout for families and spa-goers may seem an odd combination, but this 197-room, native-stone-and-timber Park Hyatt at the base of Beaver Creek Mountain (just 200 feet from ski school) pulls it off with luxury to boot. Wander past the lobby's elk-horn chandelier to rooms with oversize beds and baths featuring products from the hotel's Allegria Spa. The spa, with a $12 million overhaul in 2006 that practically doubled its size to 30,000 square feet, is the perfect place to wind down after skiing to the hotel's doorstep and handing off your gear to the ski valet. But kids are decidedly a focus here, with activities organized by Camp Hyatt (for kids 3–12), the village's best heated outdoor pool and four hot tubs (two are adult-only), and daily story time in front of the Great Room fireplace, complete with complimentary hot cocoa.
Tip: Arrive at least an hour before your treatment to try the Roman-inspired Aqua Sanitas self-guided water ritual (free with a treatment; $25–$35 without).
Room to Book: Families should opt for the 13 double rooms that connect to king rooms; all overlook the slopes."

"This Hyatt is sprawling (602 good-sized rooms), but the pools and gardens are so extensive and ingeniously designed that the place never feels crowded. Adults enjoy the calm river pool and a spa in a lush garden, while kids brave the 150-foot slide into the politely termed "active pool". There's plenty of land activities as well, including golf and tennis." -From www.TravelandLeisure.com
National Geographic Traveler says...
"An oceanside marriage of grandeur and conscience. Hawaiiana galore: traditional arts, crafts, music, and luaus. Info in every guest room on the endangered monk seal. Serious recycling since 1995. 18,500 square feet (1,718 square meters) of solar panels to be installed this year."
