What do we do with the kids?? It's something parents say every day, but it's a big conversation topic when it's time to plan vacations. Hotel properties are missing out on incredible opportunities to attract not only new customers but also returning guests. If parents trust you have kid-friendly amenities...they'll come back! I was looking at Lyfe Hotels & Resorts for example, and the promotion of amenities is a staple of their brand, and their beach location near Hollywood is ideal for young families. However, by not offering any in-house family activities and leaving that up to the parents, the never-ending question will continue. What do we do with the kids? If you can help answer this question? Happy parents make for very happy customers. #familyentertainment #experiences #livemoments #lastingmemories #hotelamenities

And YOU, ARE YOU INCLUSIVE? The main benefit and key factor of making a hotel accessible is inclusion. By prioritizing accessibility, hotels ensure that all individuals, regardless of their physical abilities or specific needs, can enjoy a hospitality experience without barriers. This not only meets ethical standards but also has a significant impact on various aspects: Expansion of Customer Base: Making a hotel accessible attracts a broader customer base, including people with disabilities and their families. This opens up new business opportunities and expands the hotel's potential audience. Reputation and Differentiation: Accessibility reinforces the hotel's reputation as an inclusive and respectful establishment. It becomes a positive differentiator, highlighting the hotel in a competitive market and generating preference among accessibility-conscious consumers. Intertek Cristal's guest experience improvement service is like building a bridge that connects hotels with a wider group of travelers. This bridge not only complies with accessibility regulations but goes beyond, creating a solid and welcoming path for all guests, regardless of their individual need.

We have received a huge number of enquiries regarding Aashaya Jasri Resort with a number of people raising concerns about whether the NDIS will fund the cost because of fear around "holidays". A number of things we need to make very clear: The resort is able to provide full support overseen by Registered Nurses and carers with NDIS Worker Screening and appropriate training. The NDIS does NOT cover airfares and visas (these are being covered by our charitable philanthropic program to ensure wide accessibility). The support fees levied for respite at the resort are EXACTLY the same as our Canberra based respite stays. There is no additional cost for the NDIS (in fact the resort costs the NDIS less as we do not charge weekend rates). Participants receive 1:1 support from a dedicated carer even when paying at the 1:2 or 1:3 rate. Whatever rate is applicable here in Canberra is charged. We provide additional support because we know travel is difficult for many. Spouses, families and friends must pay their own way and NDIS funding cannot be used for this. Directly from the NDIS Guidelines: Short Term Accommodation funding can be used for respite to support you and your carers. This gives your carers a short break from their caring role. Sometimes a short stay away from home: • gives you the chance to try new things • can be a place to make new friends or develop new skills • may help to maintain your current living situation by giving your informal supports a break. Short Term Accommodation includes: • personal care • accommodation • food • activities you and the provider agree to. When we (the NDIA) think about Short Term Accommodation we need to know: • the need for Short Term Accommodation is related to your disability • it helps you pursue your goals • it helps you to participate in the community • it’s value for money We believe that respite should be available where the participant chooses, whether that be in Australia or overseas. By keeping costs below Australian respite, we ensure value for money ... pay $ to stay in a house in Canberra, pay the same and experience so much more. #ndis #accessibletravel National Disability Insurance Agency NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission National Disability Services Disability Intermediaries Australia Disability Advocacy Network Australia (DANA) Ltd Community Home Australia Craig A Hooper Nicole Smith Accessible Accommodation (The Accessible Group) Dementia Australia Dementia Support Australia COTA Australia National Seniors Australia Bill Shorten Office of Senator Jordon Steele-John David Pocock
