Planning a family beach vacation? Looking for destinations with
family resorts that have fun sports and activities for the whole family, all
inclusive resorts where meals are included and kid clubs? Here are some of the
most popular beach destinations for families to unwind and relax:
Mexico
Mexico, especially the Cancun area, and Mayan Riviera, an hour’s drive south
of Cancun, is a popular place for family beach vacations. The Mayan Riviera is
one of the regions of Mexico - and the world- which offers the richest variety
of landscapes and archaeological treasures including Mayan ruins, coral reef,
snorkelling lagoons, and eco-theme parks such as Xcaret. Hotels, resorts,
restaurants, and attractions throughout Mexico welcome families with open arms.
Jamaica
Jamaica is considered by many to be the most beautiful of all the Caribbean
Islands and is one of the top family-vacation destinations in the Caribbean.
Many of Jamaica’s resorts offer supervised children's activities, babysitters,
family discounts, and kid's meals. Jamaica has an abundance of top all-inclusive
chains including: Sandals Beaches, SuperClubs Breezes resorts and Club Med.
There are also many other family vacation options such as the Franklyn D. Resort
in Runaway Bay, Jamaica, where families have their own vacation nanny during
their stay.
Turks and Caicos
On a 12-mile stretch of satiny white-sand, Beaches Turks & Caicos is one of
the premier family resorts on the island.With separate programs for infants,
toddlers and teens, each is designed to give each age the activities they love.
So when you're off doing your thing, they're off doing theirs. There are many
other resorts to stay at this idyllic family beach destination
Bahamas
Home to the Atlantis Bahamas resort and many other excellent family resorts,
there will not be a dull moment on your Bahamas family vacation. Blessed with
the perfect location-less than 100 miles off the coast of Florida, the perfect
climate- averaging a little over 75 degrees, and the perfect
surroundings-crystal clear turquoise blue waters and pearly white beaches, the
Islands of the Bahamas is the perfect destination for your next family beach
vacation.
Hawaii A Family Hawaii Vacation has it all. Beautiful beaches, world-class
golf, surfing, shopping, swimming, top notch hotels, condominiums, eco tours,
national parks, warm weather, and cool ocean breezes. The four islands that are
popular for a family Hawaii Vacation are Oahu, Maui, the Big Island and Kauai.
Florida
Florida is a popular family beach destination because the climate is warm
year round, it is easy to get to, it offers good value for your money, there are
endless options for sightseeing and attractions for you family depending on what
area you are in, and the beaches in Florida are numerous. In addition to beach
destinations and of course Walt Disney World, there are tons of other family
outings including Universal Studios, Sea World, Bush Gardens and many more.
Don’t forget about kid cruises
This is a very popular family vacation option and my personal favorite.
Cruises with kids offer great value, choice and freedom! There are a lot of
misconceptions about cruising such as it is only for older people and not suited
for families, it is too rigid, there is nothing to do, you’ll feel trapped,
you’ll get seasick, it’s too expensive! All is these statements are false and
could not be further from the truth. Bring your kids along on almost any cruise
and they'll have the time of their lives.
