South-east Asia has long been associated with romance, business and gap year adventures, but families looking for long-haul travel have usually passed it over in favour of destinations such as Australia or the US. That is until now. Parents are realising that this region offers a wealth of cultural, natural, sporting and educational opportunities that you can’t find anywhere else on the planet, and Hilton hotels are on hand with a range of family-friendly amenities that will help you get the most out of your holiday.

In the Maldives, families can snorkel off unspoilt beaches, enjoy delicious global cuisine, adult and child spa retreats and learn about local island culture. On a city break to Singapore, kids can take in the cultural sights before chilling out at a Hilton hotel with a laid-back vibe where children are warmly welcomed. Meanwhile, a trip to Bangkok begins with a one-of-a-kind shuttle boat ride that brings you to your hotel room in ultimate style.
