A Holistic Children’s Program with Immersive & Structured Activities to Elevate the Family Holiday Experience

Mumbai, December 5th, 2015 – At the JW Marriott Hotel Mumbai Juhu in India, Marriott Rewards, Marriott International’s award-winning loyalty program, is launching “MAX!”, a new and exclusive kids program which aims to enrich the travel experiences of children through holistic activities that inspire and nurture. The program will be available to Members staying at participating Marriott International properties throughout the Asia-Pacific region starting from the 21st of this month. 


Created for children ages five to 12 years old, MAX! is founded on four activity pillars: Be Active offers action-packed sessions, ranging from pool activities to dance lessons; Stay Curious encourages intellectual curiosity with activities such as cooking and arts-and-crafts; Go Explore will appeal to children’s sense of adventure; while Just Relax offers more tranquil pursuits. 

The four pillars are consistent throughout all offering properties; however, the specific activities will be curated by each property, making the experience authentic to the location and culture. 

The MAX! launch party was held today at the JW Marriott Hotel Mumbai Juhu in India, a property overlooking the stunning Arabian Sea, and a favourite destination among Bollywood celebrities, business travellers, and vacationing families. The grand ballroom was turned into a kids’ wonderland where talents from across India were featured in a variety of activities that will be included in the MAX! program.    

Surjan Singh Jolly, better known as Chef Jolly, the Director of Food & Beverage at the JW Marriott Bengaluru and a renowned TV personality, guided kids in cooking classes creating culinary delights and learning the nutritional value of their products.  Sucheta Pal, a master Zumba trainer and one of the best in the country, took kids through a mix of music and dance. More than 100 children from Marriott Rewards Members’ families sampled  MAX! and gave it a resounding thumbs up.  



“Families in Asia are going on more holidays than ever before, but they increasingly demand a meaningful family experience that goes beyond just a place to relax. With India a rapidly growing market for family travel, we were delighted to be able to showcase the new MAX! program at its launch in Mumbai today, which gives families a well-rounded holiday experience they will never forget”,  said Neeraj Govil, Market Vice President, South Asia.

“By introducing MAX!, Marriott Rewards aims to exceed the high expectations parents have when they choose a hotel for their family vacation,” said Anka Twum-Baah, Vice President, Customer Loyalty & Content, Asia Pacific at Marriott International. “Providing children with enriching experiences has a positive effect on their lives. We are launching MAX! with the aim of inspiring children to enjoy a range of memorable experiences that they can share with their family and friends.”

Marriott Rewards created MAX! in response to the changing nature of family travel in Asia for its most loyal guests, including the rise of multigenerational travel and parents’ desires to provide their children with learning experiences even when on vacation. Based on input from its current Members, Marriott Rewards developed this unique program that caters to these evolving demands and offers activities that are both educational and fun, nourishing children’s innate desire to learn and stay active.



“With Marriott Rewards, Members enjoy the benefits of loyalty in ways that are most meaningful to them, in their everyday lives,” Ms. Twum-Baah added. “With MAX!, parents are assured that their children’s sense of curiosity and desire to learn about their surroundings will be encouraged and celebrated.” 

In Asia Pacific, the rise of the middle class is changing consumers’ behavior and increasing their desire to travel especially in India, which was chosen for the launch.  The MAX! program roll-out will begin at  resorts of all brands and JW Marriott Hotels in Asia Pacific and continue to all other hotels under the Marriott International portfolio with the exception of The Ritz-Carlton and Bvlgari brands.

Asus' Zenfone 2 - Review

Asus' Zenfone 2 - Review

ASUS products are great! I learnt this when I attended the Asus'  meet. 
When I received a lovely handset called – ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser to review, excitement made me so busy in learning it features. One by one the features made me astonish!

Appearance: Zenfone 2 has 5.5-inch display size. The phone is slightly large than the pocket size. The large size is ideal for reading emails, play games or watch videos on the mobile. The HD screen is clear and looks good. The 5.5-inch HD (720x1280p) IPS display offers vibrant colours, good brightness levels and wide viewing angles.The phone comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 4 protection to safeguard against scratches. Touch response is also excellent.
The phone’s volume control buttons are on the rear and the power/screen lock is at the top. This is an uncommon combination as most of the phones launched in the recent past come with side buttons for power/screen lock and volume control for easy access. Just below the display, there are three capacitive touch buttons for navigation and a metallic strip. The navigation keys on the Zenfone 2 Laser are clear enough.
The phone has removable back panel that features a matte finish and is slightly rounded.
Battery: Performance of the phone is nice due to long battery life. The 3000mAh battery easily lasts for a day, even with 4G on. Zenfone 2 does great multi-task without a problem. 
Software: The phone runs Android 5.0.2 Lollipop with Asus' new ZenUI skin that also supports themes. The Asus ZenFone 2 Laser (ZE550KL) is powered by 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor and it comes with 2GB of RAM. The phone packs 16GB of internal storage that can be expanded up to 128GB via a microSD card. The phone offers Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS connectivity options. It does not support NFC but offers FM radio.
Special Features: Zenfone has a special feature "Kids Mode" where It helps to lets you choose selected apps and password protect the rest of the phone.
Camera: Zenfone's 5MP front camera takes such nice selfies that automatically make you look really good with beautification effects. The most special functionality of this device is - laser Auto Focus. The phone has a 13MP rear camera with laser Auto Focus for 0.3 second focus time and dual-LED flash. The rear camera of this phone features a five-prism Largan lens and Toshiba sensors, and is accompanied by a dual-tone, dual-LED flash. The camera which has f2.0 aperture, takes good quality pictures in daylight with optimum level of detail and balanced contrast and colours. Low-light conditions, the pictures are ok as compared to the daylight pictures, though the dual-LED flash helps in filling light.
Price : Zenfone 2 Laser comes in two series: ZE550KL and ZE500KL, which again have two different variants based on their configuration.

In ZE550KL series, the Rs. 9,999 variant comes with 5.5-inch display, 2GB RAM, and 16GB internal storage whereas the Rs. 13,999 variant has 3GB of RAM and rest of the specification are same as of Rs. 9,999 variant.
In ZE500KL series features a 5-inch display, 2GB RAM, Quad-core processor, but the 8GB internal storage variant is priced for Rs. 9,799 and 16GB storage option is priced for Rs. 9,999.
