Summer vacation just got sweeter for kids visiting the New Nickelodeon Family Suites at the Holiday Inn Resort in Florida with their families. Dreamy decorations and a dedicated spa specialist await young guests at their very own vacation spa service in Orlando. The Sugar & Spice Kids Spa is a deluxe space complete with massage chairs and treatments for girls and boys alike.

A sweet treat for both the young and young-at-heart. The Sugar & Spice Kids Spa was a special treat for Atlanta, Ga., native Joan Cullity’s daughter after a long day at the theme parks.

"Visiting the spa was the perfect pampering experience for both of us. The prices were reasonable, the staff was great, and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience."

Girls can relax at the Sugar & Spice Kids Spa and enjoy special treatments like a pretty pastel polish manicure and a sparkly topcoat with a Manigirl treatment. Elegant French and acrylic Manigirl treatments are also available.

The Pedilady lets girls pamper their feet with soothing lotions, heated massage, pretty pastel polishes and flowery designs.

Fabulous and fresh avocado or oatmeal scrub coupled with a face massage, cucumber eye lift, cleanser and moisturizer are all part of the Fantasy Facial.

The Tasha Touchup adds a finishing touch with a dab of lip gloss, brush of blush, splash of glitter and a dash of perfume, plus a special surprise.

With a Glamour Photo girls can enjoy a fun photo shoot with gorgeous gowns, beautiful boas and haughty hats.

Jamaican Braids are a treat for girls who want to add a little spice to their vacation. The Jamaican braids or elegant up-do comes complete with butterfly barrettes and ribbons, topped off with glistening glitter.

The Maniguy Individual Spa Service for Boys includes fun manicures with temporary hand tattoos, finger massage, thumb wrestling and arm wrestling. Adventure awaits young men with the special Pirate, Commando, and Celebrity services.

Kids can let their imagination take to the high seas in an adventurous get-up including eye patch, red bandana, polished earring in one ear and an extraordinary temporary tattoo.

The sky’s the limit when it comes to fun at the New Nickelodeon Family Suites at the Holiday Inn Resort in Florida's Sugar & Spice Kids Spa. The spa specializes in birthday party packages for groups of six or more.
