The ultimate family-friendly resort in Shenzhen for vacationing with kids!

Shenzhen East Overseas Chinese Town Black Forest Jiatu Hotel is simply the top choice for family vacations! We spent two days and one night here with the kids, and from the facilities to the service, everything was full of pleasant surprises. It’s definitely the best spot around Shenzhen for taking kids out 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦✨ 🏨【Stay】Fairytale-like family rooms The hotel was recently renovated, and the room facilities are super new! We booked a family room with a slide, and the kids screamed with joy as soon as they saw it and rushed up the slide. The bunk bed design is very thoughtful, perfect for families with two kids. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, so the kids fell asleep instantly without fussing~ 🎪【Play】One-stop fun with no repeats • Indoor and outdoor pools: two super long water slides (super thrilling!) plus a heated kids’ pool, with lifeguards always watching so parents can relax • Forest train: just a 5-minute walk from the hotel, traveling through lush green mountains is so soothing • Jungle crossing: suitable for kids 6 and older, staff patiently guide on how to wear the gear 🌳【Nearby】All kid-friendly attractions packed in • Tea Creek Valley: a 10-minute walk, with seasonal flower seas and a rainbow slide that’s breathtaking • Dahua Xing Temple: golden Buddha statues in the mountains are stunning, and you might encounter wild peacocks along the way • Yunhai Park: best to visit early morning to see the sea of clouds rolling, remember to put non-slip shoes on the kids 🍽️【Eat】Hidden delicious tips Breakfast at Interlaken Restaurant, highly recommend the freshly cooked beef noodles! For dinner, try the hotel BBQ (reservation needed), or take a 10-minute taxi to Yantian Seafood Street, where you can eat your fill for around 100+ RMB per person~ 💡Exclusive tips: 1. Avoid peak times for water fun: before 10 AM or after 4 PM when it’s less crowded 2. Bring a thin jacket: it’s 3-5 degrees cooler in the mountains than the city 3. Bring mosquito repellent spray! The forest environment has more bugs 4. Book family rooms at least 1 week in advance, weekends are especially popular Even my picky partner said, "We’ll come again next time," and the kids kept talking about the slide and pool on the way home. A family hotel done this well is truly amazing!
