Start of the trip: Swinoujscie and Miedzyzdroje

Our luxury journey along the Amber Trail begins in Swinoujscie, a city of 44 islands where the borders of three countries meet. This is the perfect place to begin our adventure along the Polish coast.

We will spend the first three nights at the exclusive Hilton Swinoujscie Resort & Spa (Baltic Park Molo Avenue 4, 72-600 Swinoujscie). Located just steps from the sandy beach, this modern hotel complex offers luxurious accommodations and a range of amenities for the whole family. The hotel is distinguished by spacious rooms with sea views, a wide range of dining options and an extensive spa and wellness area.

For the youngest guests there is a special kids club and an aquapark, making it an ideal place for a family vacation. Noteworthy is the rich breakfast buffet, which is served until 11:00 am, allowing for a leisurely morning without rushing.

During your stay in Swinoujscie, you can't miss a visit to Fort Gerhard - the Museum of Coastal Defense (2 Bunker Street). This is a fascinating place where history comes to life through interactive exhibits and demonstrations. Children will be delighted to try on historical uniforms and learn the secrets of military life.

Another highlight of the program is a trip to Miedzyzdroje, where the Baltic Miniature Park (98 Nowomyśliwska Street) awaits you. This is a place where in one day you can 'visit' the most important monuments of the Baltic Sea region at a scale of 1:25. This is a great opportunity to familiarize children with the architecture and history of the region in an accessible and fun way.

And don't forget to take a walk on the longest pier on the Baltic Sea in Miedzyzdroje. It's the perfect place for family photos and admiring sunsets. For nature lovers, we recommend a visit to Wolin National Park, where you can observe bison in their natural habitat.

Remember that the beaches in Swinoujscie and Miedzyzdroje are wide and sandy, perfect for family fun and relaxation. It's a good idea to bring colorful buckets and paddles for the kids, as well as creams with a high UV filter to protect your skin from the intense sun.

After three days full of excitement in and around Swinoujscie, we will be ready for the next stage of our journey along the Amber Trail, which will take us further along the Polish coast, where more luxurious attractions and unforgettable views await us.

The middle part of the journey: Kolobrzeg and Ustka

Our journey along the Amber Trail continues in Kolobrzeg, a well-known spa resort that combines leisure and healing qualities. It is an ideal place for the whole family to recuperate and relax.

After an intensive tour of Swinoujscie and its surroundings, it's time for a real rest in luxurious conditions. For the next three nights we will stay at the exclusive Royal Baltic Luxury Boutique Hotel (Wczasowa 26, 76-270 Ustka). Located just a few steps from the beach, this unique property is surrounded by a picturesque forest, creating the perfect conditions for relaxation and tranquility.

The Royal Baltic Luxury Boutique Hotel offers spacious, elegantly decorated rooms, some with sea views. There is a spa area with a swimming pool, saunas and Jacuzzi, where parents can relax while children enjoy the playroom or outdoor playground.

It is worth noting that the hotel is famous for its excellent cuisine. A varied breakfast and lunch and dinner are served here every day, often themed, presenting different cuisines of the world. This is an excellent opportunity to discover new flavors and aromas together with your children.

While in Kolobrzeg, you can't miss a visit to the Museum of Polish Arms (5 Emilia Gierczak Street). This is a fascinating place where history comes to life through an impressive collection of militaria. Children will be delighted to see tanks, planes and other military vehicles up close.

Another highlight should be a walk through Kolobrzeg's old town and a visit to the lighthouse. From its top there is a beautiful view of the sea and the city, and the climb itself can be an exciting adventure for the little ones.

And don't forget to visit Kolobrzeg's Spa Park, where there is a brine graduation tower. It's a great place for a family walk and inhalations that will boost the whole family's immunity.

After an eventful day, enjoy dinner at one of the seaside restaurants, where you can sample fresh fish and seafood. This is a great opportunity to teach children to appreciate local flavors and culinary traditions.

The next two days will be spent in charming Ustka, where, in addition to enjoying the hotel and the beach, you can take a trip to the Slowinski National Park. It's a place famous for its shifting sand dunes, which resemble a desert landscape. A walk through the 'Polish Sahara' will be an unforgettable experience for the whole family.

Remember that in both Kolobrzeg and Ustka, the beaches are wide and sandy, perfect for building sand castles and family beach games. It's worth bringing along badminton or frisbee equipment to spice up your time at the seaside.

After another three days full of relaxation and outdoor activities, we will be ready for the final leg of our luxury Amber Trail journey, which will take us to the pearl of the Polish coast - the Tri-City.

Final leg of the journey: Tricity

The final leg of our luxury Amber Trail journey is a visit to the Tri-City - a conurbation of three coastal cities: Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia. This is the perfect culmination of our adventure, combining history, culture and modernity.

For the next four nights we will stay at the prestigious Sopot Marriott Resort & Spa (Bitwy pod Płowcami 59, 81-731 Sopot). Located directly on the beach, this luxury hotel offers unparalleled comfort and views of the Bay of Gdansk. There are spacious, elegantly decorated rooms, some with balconies overlooking the sea.

The Sopot Marriott Resort & Spa is famous for its wellness area, which includes an infinity pool on the hotel's rooftop, saunas, Jacuzzi and a wide range of spa treatments. It's the perfect place to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. For the youngest guests, there is a special kids club, where they can play and develop their skills under the guidance of professional caregivers.

During your stay in the Tri-City, you can't miss a visit to Gdansk. Start with a stroll through the Main Town, admiring the characteristic architecture of the townhouses on Dluga Street and Dlugi Targ. Be sure to visit St. Mary's Basilica, the largest brick church in Europe, whose tower offers a beautiful view of the entire city.

For history buffs, a must-see is the World War II Museum (Wladyslaw Bartoszewski Square 1, Gdansk). This modern, interactive museum presents the history of the conflict in a way that is accessible to both adults and children.

In Sopot, you can't miss a walk along the longest wooden pier in Europe. It's the perfect place for family photos and admiring sunsets. You should also take a walk along the famous Monciak - a representative street of the resort, full of cafes, restaurants and stores.

Gdynia, in turn, is a paradise for lovers of the sea and ships. Be sure to visit the Museum of the Navy (1B Zawiszy Czarnego Street) and the ORP Blyskawica - a ship-museum moored at Skwer Kościuszki. This is a fascinating history lesson that is sure to interest both adults and children.

Also, don't forget to visit the Gdynia Aquarium (John Paul II Avenue 1), where you can admire the fascinating underwater world. This is a place that will delight the whole family.

For seekers of amber - the 'gold of the Baltic' - we recommend a visit to the Amber Museum in Gdansk (Wielkie Młyny 16). This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the history and properties of this fascinating stone.

Remember that the beaches in the Tri-City are wide and well-developed. It's a good idea to bring a blanket, sunblock and snacks to spend the whole day at the sea. For the active, we recommend renting bicycles and riding the bike path connecting Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia.

At the end of our trip, it is worth organizing a gala dinner in one of Sopot's restaurants overlooking the sea. This is a great opportunity to sum up the impressions of the whole trip and plan the next adventure.

Our 10-day journey along the Luxury Amber Route has come to an end, but the memories of it will surely stay with you for a long time.
