Teppanyaki chefs cook at your table with a full show - built-in entertainment for kids - plus a Kabuki Kids menu for 12 and under, and jumbo jets landing at SFO outside the waterfront windows.

Small neighborhood park that's a go-to for the preschool-and-under crowd - playground, picnic tables, basketball court and an on-site preschool program.

Bayfront airport hotel with an indoor pool and whirlpool (weather-proof kid entertainment), a free SFO shuttle, and bay-view rooms for plane-watching. Starbucks in the lobby for early flights.

Millbrae airport hotel with a heated indoor pool and Jacuzzi under a glass ceiling - reliable year-round swimming whatever the fog does.

Modern, playful airport hotel with the indoor 'Splash' pool, free SFO shuttles, grab-and-go snacks, and loft-style rooms. Walking distance to the Millbrae transit hub.
