LAS VEGAS

Circus Circus Hotel and Adventure Dome Theme Park. I’ve stayed here a couple of times (both times without children) and had a ball. So, it’s safe to assume that kids will find it even more exciting. The hotel’s Adventure Dome is a 5-acre elevated theme park located indoors and there’s a permanent circus, which features incredible acts that perform throughout the day. Each room is equipped with a refrigerator and is located approximately a half block behind the main casino. Price start at $250.

MIAMI

Ocean Spray Miami Beach Hotel. It’s touted as Miami’s “freshest boutique beach hotel.” The property is conveniently located near the Miami International Airport. The original structure was built as an Art Deco Classic in 1936, but was completely renovated and reopened in May 2003. The hotel features beach access, complimentary continental breakfast, and free shuttles to the Miami International Airport and upscale shops of Bal Harbour. Prices for this package start at $300.
