Parents:
Because we're parents too we know traveling with kids means thinking ten steps ahead—so we’ve already done it for you. The home features safety measures such as baby gates, outlet covers, wall-mounted furniture, and interconnected smoke/CO₂ alarms for peace of mind. For little ones, you’ll find two pack and plays, a high chair, toddler toilet seats, and a bath tub stocked with bubbles. The kid-friendly rec room includes books, toys, and even a kid's telescope for starry nights. And the fully stocked kitchen—complete with children’s utensils, spices, and all the essentials—makes mealtimes easy, whether you’re feeding a toddler or a tableful. Yama Lodge also offers a new Veer wagon for toting the little ones back and forth to the pool.
Need a break? We can make recommendations for trusted babysitters from the area to give you some time to unwind while your kids are in good hands.
