This Carmel Resort is Catering to Multi-Gen Travelers

The Quail, a tranquil getaway set on 850 acres of the sunny side of Carmel, offers “Junior Quails”, a new immersive program that allows families to relax, play and spend quality time together in picturesque Carmel Valley. Multi-generational travel continues to trend in the luxury hospitality space with 58% of Millennials and Gen Z parents planning to travel with extended family in 2025. With this new family-friendly program and luxurious, two-bedroom Villas available, the resort is the perfect place for multiple generations to gather this spring and summer.

Junior Quails comes to life through a complimentary curated passport of self-guided experiences, including a round at the resort’s all-grass putting course, beloved boardgames, fireside s’mores, and an opportunity to discover the property’s natural beauty. Little ones will receive a stamp for each finished activity, then head to the front desk to pick a prize once their on-property journey is complete. Additionally, resort guests will find endless opportunities for family fun with access to pickleball and tennis courts, lessons with a USPTA certified professional, electric bikes to explore the grounds, remote controlled boats to race at the resort’s lake, a heated outdoor pool to enjoy, and more.

Junior Quails Passport
