Luxury travel magazine Condé Nast has ranked Sri Lanka as the world’s most family-friendly country for 2025, ahead of global frontrunners such as Sweden, Norway, and New Zealand.
In an article written by Olivia Morelli, Condé Nast Traveller highlights Sri Lanka’s welcoming culture, outdoor activities, and family-friendly hotels as key factors in its top ranking.
“It’s no surprise that Sri Lanka ranked so highly in this list – in fact, we named the country one of our favourite places to go for multi-gen megatrips in 2025 due to its welcoming nature, focus on outdoor activities, and family-friendly Sri Lankan hotels. The country is home to some incredible wildlife, from vast national parks and sprawling beaches, plus there is fascinating history, creative coastlines, delicious food, and an excellent shopping scene,” it reads.
Sri Lanka achieved an impressive score for its education system (0.7 out of 1.0) and a low annual childcare cost of $ 354.60 per year (compared to $ 16,439.40 in the US, which ranked in 10th place).
The report analysed various factors and statistics to determine family-friendliness, focusing on education quality and accessibility, childcare costs, and general living conditions.

“One such factor considers how family-friendly a country is, looking at data points such as the quality and accessibility of education in each nation. The company used statistics including the average years of schooling adults have completed, the expected years of schooling for children in each country, and the average cost of childcare per year. The report then generated a score for each nation to establish the most family-friendly country,” it added.
