JW Marriott Hotel Nara is launching a special summer stay plan called “Kids Summer Camp” starting July 4 through September 30, 2026. This family-friendly package includes creative workshops and cooking classes designed to make lasting summer memories for children aged 3 to 12.
This limited-time offer is perfect for families visiting Nara during the summer holidays or the quieter early autumn season. It combines fun, learning, and cultural experiences with the luxury and comfort of a renowned international hotel brand, making it an attractive option for travelers seeking both relaxation and engaging activities for their children.
About the Kids Summer Camp Stay Plan
The Kids Summer Camp is part of JW Marriott’s “Family by JW” program, offering children opportunities to explore creativity and curiosity through hands-on activities. The package features a variety of workshops including soap making, canvas bag decorating, shadow art, and cooking classes using local Nara vegetables.
Highlights
- Soap Making: Craft transparent soaps with adorable goldfish motifs, inspired by Nara’s famous goldfish town, complete with aroma oils from the hotel spa.
- Canvas Bag Decorating: Design your own washable canvas tote bag using stamps and fabric pens (available except August 10–17).
- Shadow Art Workshop: A limited-time event (August 10–17) led by a local artist creating unique light and shadow artworks that can be framed and taken home.
- Pizza & Crepe Cooking Class: Held at the nearby Torry Pines restaurant, children can create original pizzas and crepes with seasonal Nara vegetables while wearing chef hats and aprons.
- Breakfast included for two adults and two children (up to 12 years old) with one activity per child; additional children incur extra charges.
The workshops require advance reservations and supervision by a guardian. The cooking class must be booked by 5 PM the day before due to ingredient preparation.
