Hi there, I'm planning a family vacation to the Carribean. We have a 3 year old and just want to unwind. We'd prefer a place where it's kid friendly but if the beaches and pools beat it we'll go there.

We originally booked a trip to the Grand Bahama at Sheraton hotel, but due to the possibly comming hurricaine, put it on hold.

So please let me know where we could go, I'd appreciate that very much. We are not planning to party or anything, but would like to see locals perform in the evening, bonfires, maybe horseback riding and just discovering the island on a rented jeep or something..

Thanks again

  1. if you are going to the Caribbean during the summer months , hurricanes are a possibility anywhere in the region . the places to look at for the least likely possibility of a hurricane would be south ( like Aruba , Anguilla , Curacao ) or west ( Cancun - Riviera Maya , Belize or Costa Rica ) . My advice for a family vacation would be the Riviera Maya , & most all inclusive resorts that are family oriented have "kids under 12 or 13 stay , play & eat for free " policies . If you would like the help of a travel pro with your trip , email me ( gerry@snapshottravelagency.com ) with some detrails ( dates , departure airport , approximate budget , preferences , etc. ) and I will find the perfect vacation destination & package for YOUR family , at th ebest price available anywhere ( my vendor has a "match & beat " policy ) .

  2. The Ritz Carlton Hotel

    it has a daycare for your young one

    has romantic things for you and your husband

    and boats ride,on the beach,and best pool in the usvi for the family

    All on the beautiful island of St.Thomas

  3. Hi there,

    Definitely look into Beaches Resorts.  They are very family friendly and offer perfect entertainment for a 3 year old.  What can be better than Story Time with Elmo!!

    They have three resorts in Jamaica and one in Turks & Caicos.  For the adults, beautiful beaches, fantastic pools, all-inclusives so you can just kick back and relax!!

    Good luck with your plans!

  4. Consider the St. Kitts Marriott.  This hotel has 3 great pools. The island has plenty to explore, there is horseback riding, thursday night bonfires at a place called Mr. X's,great snorkeling, and lots of secluded beaches.  The island is in the process of major development and offers a more 'island' atmosphere.  There are great restaurants, but the best place to stay by far is the Marriott.
