Category: Family Vacation Packages | Nov 23, 2009 |
Are you looking for a fun destination for your next family vacation? If so, Jamaica should be examined. Although Jamaica is often referred to as the perfect destination for romantic getaways, destination weddings, and honeymoons, it is also the ideal destination for family vacations.
As nice as it is to hear that Jamaica is a great destination for family summer vacations, you may be wondering why. What is it that sets Jamaica apart from other typical family summer vacation ideas, such as camping, amusement parks, or local beaches? Although hard to describe, you will know as soon as you arrive on the island. There is no shortage of family friendly activities on the island of Jamaica. The beauty of Jamaica is something that your children will remember forever and it may also be something they never have the opportunity to experience again.
Once you have decided to plan a family vacation to Jamaica, you will need to start making your travel plans. Before you start doing so, it is important to familiarize yourself with all-inclusive family vacations. They are increasing in popularity among travelers just like yourself. Why? Because they are a great way to travel, as they are easy and affordable to book.
When first examining all-inclusive family vacation packages for Jamaica, the cost may be a turn off for you. This is because the cost can seem high at first glance. With that said, it is important to take a closer look. All-inclusive vacations include a large number of your travel arrangements. Depending on the travel package in question, your airline reservations, overnight accommodations, food, drinks, snacks, and entertainment may be included. This will increase the upfront costs of your trip, but it will reduce your expenses on the island.
It is also important to examine the convenience associated with all-inclusive family vacations. There are no worries, especially when you stay at a super or ultra all-inclusive resort. When your entertainment, food, snacks, and drinks are included in the cost of your stay, you do not have be concerned with going over your vacation budget. As a parent, you may know how difficult it can be staying under budget with multiple children to feed and keep occupied. By opting to stay at an all-inclusive resort, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy yourself.
On the island, you will find a number of Jamaica resorts that are classified as all-inclusive or super-inclusive resorts. What you need to be on the lookout for is adult resorts. These are resorts where there is an age requirement for guests. If you are traveling with small children, typically under the age of 12 or 15, your staying options may be limited. With that said, also know that there are family friend resorts on the island of Jamaica as well. One example is the Starfish Resort at Trelawny Beach.
As previously stated, there are Jamaica resorts designed for adults, as well as those for families. Although resorts where all guests are welcome can also be found on the island, you may find the most success when booking your all-inclusive family vacation through a family oriented resort. Doing so will not only make your vacation easier to manage, but it should increase the satisfaction of your children. And, all parents know that happy children are very important when on a family vacation.
As for why all-inclusive family resorts are recommended, it is because of the features, services, and facilities you gain access too. How does a children’s center where your children under the age of twelve can enjoy fun activities sound? That, alone, sounds nice, but did you know that they could visit this children’s center while you enjoy a little bit of time to yourself? Playgrounds along the beach, kid sized swimming pools, and fun game rooms are just a few of the many facilities you and your family will gain access to with most all-inclusive family resorts.
As highlighted above, there are a number of reasons why your next Jamaica family vacation should be booked as an all-inclusive vacation. To start making your travel plans, visit SuperClubs.com. While there, remember the many benefits to staying at a family friendly resort that is designed for families just like yours.

There are two ways of doing this. One would be to put the vacation cost on your credit card and pay it off, including the interest, over 12 months. The other way would be to start paying into a vacation account on a monthly basis and when you have the price of the vacation, buy it. Some travel agents may offer the first option.

Expedia works for me.
Find a place on International Dr in Orlando that you can go through a time share. When you spend about 90 minutes of your time doing that, they usually give you park tickets for free. Try it! I've done it.
I found this a lot of fun.
The Florida Everglades National Park/Biscayne National Park/Elliot Key Island.
I started out by camping at Flamingo Campground/Florida Everglades for 3 days. I rented a kayak and paddled the mangrove forest.
Then, at Biscayne. I took a boat over to Elliot Key Island from Biscayne and camped on the island for 3 days. There, I was able to snorkel the shallows and enjoy the coral reefs off of Elliot Key.
WARNING: If you snorkel. YOU MUST USE A RED DIVING FLAG. (A person was snorkeling without a diving flag while I was there and died because a boat did not see him) Walmart has/had a snorkeling kit for 20 bucks(flippers, mask & snorkel)
ALSO, I recommend doing the Everglades during the late winter/ early spring when the bugs and heat are not as bad.
AND FOR GAWD SAKE. DO NOT PLACE YOUR CHILD ON A ALLIGATORS BACK WHILE THEY ARE SUNNING ON THE ROAD. (true story – saw a tourist place his 4 year old son on a alligators back for a photo opprotunity.
Elliot Key only has access by boat or seaplane. There are NO stores on the island. SO, you have to pack in/out your food and water. Pack food in air tight containers. Racoons on Elliot Key are master thieves. I had my breakfast muffins tied up in a tree. The racoons still got them.
You're going to have a difficult time finding anything in that price range, even though it's the low, hurricane season in the Caribbean. The airfare alone would probably be more than that. Don't think you could even do the platform tent camping at Maho Bay or Cinnamon Bay in St. John USVI for that.
Best bet would probably be a travel agent who has package tours. CheapCaribbean.com sometimes has good deals – don't know how reliable they are. Also could check TravelZoo.com or VacationsToGo.com.
Perhaps Caye Caulker [Belize], Roatan [Honduras], Cozumel [Mexico] or Riviera Maya [Mexico] would have something more-affordable.
