The Mango Tree Story

We empower parents to choose unique travel experiences that will delight the whole family - without stress or overwhelm.

Mango Tree grew out of a mimosa-fueled conversation between five moms about travel planning.

We were moms who could do anything we put our minds to.

We were highly competent professionals who juggled work and kids with grace (most of the time). But we needed a vacation. We deserved one. And there was one thing we couldn’t do…

find great hotels for families that we were actually excited to visit.

It seemed so simple, but it derailed our planning.

Sound familiar?

Family travel can recharge us. It can help us reconnect with our kids and partners.

But not if planning that family trip is stressful – we have enough of that. And not if it’s all about the kids – we need to make sure our kids enjoy themselves and feel like we’ve gotten away ourselves.

We plan exceptional travel with kids -- and we make it feel easy.

We give you the confidence to choose travel with your kids. because we know that you can experience AWESOME travel moments – with the kids in tow.

No more "we'll wait until their older" moments. We're here to help you take that trip NOW.

we believe a great family hotel should be the centerpiece of a fabulous trip with kids.

No more defaulting to AirBNBs where you still have to do the cooking and cleaning, or to "another trip to Florida" because the thought of finding something better overwhelmed you. We want you to experience hotels with the Je Ne Sais Quoi that makes you sad to leave. Spacious rooms, incredible staff, rave reviews.

You’re too important to settle for anything less.
