DISCOVER THE �MEDINA LOVES KIDS� DIFFERENCE THIS SUMMER HOLIDAYS!!

Australia will be a mecca for families with kids this summer and Medina Serviced Apartments is offering special packages and facilities to make kids feel at home, while their parents can enjoy a luxury break.

Australia's leading owner and operator of serviced apartments, Medina Serviced Apartments has launched their special family summer packages starting from just $110 a night, including luxury accommodation in a spacious apartment, continental breakfast for each person, free undercover parking (except Martin Place) and free accommodation for the kids (using existing bedding).

This Medina package is designed with inclusions to help make a family�s holiday the highlight of the year, with features such as kids dining facilities, use of a fully equipped �kids toy chest�, use of pool playtime toys and a host of other inclusions.

On booking in, parents are presented with a deluxe kid�s toy chest, filled to the brim with the most entertaining toys and games including leggo, Sony kids CD�s, books and toys - designed to entertain them for many hours and save luggage space in cars.

When its time to dine, children have their very own table and chair set or highchair, with accompanying crockery and cutlery. Parents can easily prepare a snack or meal in the fully equipped kitchen or order and eat in rather than going to a restaurant. Medina�s specially designed pantry service allows guests to pre-order groceries and drinks for the whole family.

Medina�s apartments are designed to provide parents with privacy and kids with loads of space to entertain themselves. Larger apartments include two different bathrooms for parents and kids, free to air and Pay TV televisions in both the bedroom and living areas; CD players & data points for those kids who cannot live without their computers.

There is also a range of apartments for parents to choose from including one, two and three bedrooms so there is no need to share a room with the kids. Apartments are also serviced daily so parents can take a break from tidying up after the children.

Families have a vast range of five to three and a half star apartments to chose from in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Brisbane - all located within close proximity to family entertainment venues and public transport.
