A New Way for LGBTQ+ Families to Explore the World
Proud Family Stays is a curated global collection of properties designed to support LGBTQ+ families to travel with confidence.
Through thoughtful curation, destination insight, and storytelling, we highlight places where families are genuinely welcomed and considered — not simply accommodated.
Discover destinations and experiences through the lens of family travel.
Why Proud Family Exists
LGBTQ+ families often travel with intention, seeking places where their presence is understood, their children are embraced, and their family life can unfold naturally.
Many families look beyond amenities, paying attention to the cultural signals, everyday interactions, and quiet details that shape whether a place truly feels welcoming.
Proud Family Stays exists to make that exploration easier — helping families discover places where belonging is understood from the moment they arrive.
How PFS Works
Proud Family Stays thoughtfully curates its collection through recommendations and research. Properties are added to the collection after alignment is measured through conversation with property leadership, and demonstration of thoughtful, inclusive hospitality practices is ensured.
Properties are shared with families through editorial listings of properties, PFS Routes that support families in how they may experience a destination, and the PFS Field Guides, which allow families to determine if a place aligns with their travel style.
The Founding Collection
The Founding Collection represents the first global group of hotels helping shape LGBTQ+ family hospitality within Proud Family Stays.
