Return to main article

These promising resorts opened too recently to make this year's list. Check in before the crowds arrive.

Inn at Palmetto Bluff
A collection of cottages in South Carolina's low country, on the May River. Perfect for a lazy inner-tube ride.
Bluffton, S.C.; 866/706-6565; www.palmettobluffresort.com;
cottages for four from $600.

Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn
The kiddie network's first foray into the hotel business has character-festooned accommodations and four-story waterslides.
Orlando, Fla.; 866/462-6425; www.nickhotel.com;
doubles from $162.

Palms at Turks and Caicos
An all-suite beach resort (full kitchens!) with a vast spa and yoga for toddlers on the menu.
Providenciales; 866/877-7256; www.thepalmstc.com;

Resort at Paws Up
The tents and cabins at this 37,000-acre ranch look like sets from an old Ralph Lauren ad. In winter, there's dog-sledding; in summer, fly-fishing and cattle drives.

doubles from $219.
