Imagine gathering a group of little kids and asking them to describe the coolest playhouse they could imagine?and then designing and building it for them from scratch. In partnership with Make-A-Wish, Toronto-based Fairmont Hotels & Resorts did exactly that and the playhouse is now open for wee hotel guests to enjoy.
Earlier this year, Fairmont invited a group of Make-A-Wish children to its resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, to brainstorm what their dream playhouse would look like. Their wish list was as adorable as you’d expect (think rooms full of teddies), and in some cases not totally doable (apologies to the kid who asked for a zipline and a non-stop conveyor belt of snacks). But their ideas shaped the final product, which launched in August at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar in San Diego, California, where it will remain, open daily, until September 25. Conveniently located right next to the resort?s gorgeous outdoor pool and charming gelato shop, the playhouse is so dreamy! Here’s a peek:

The main play area features a modern cottage-style main floor, complete with everything kids need for some serious make-believe.
