When you have kids that have a week for family spring break, choosing your destination and property needs to be handled with some forethought.
First, the age of the children on spring break matter. If your kids are young (under say 12 or 13 years of age) having a beach destination with warm weather may be paramount or they (and the parents) will run out of things to do…and FAST as well as at least somewhat avoiding hordes of intoxicated college-aged students.
We, therefore, recommend these destinations and properties
- Playa del Carmen, Mexico Iberostar or RIU properties with kids clubs
- Puerto Vallarta, Mexico RIU or Fiesta Americana Properties
- Nassau, The Bahamas Atlantis or Baha Mar resort casinos
- Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (various and many)
- Los Cabos, Mexico Waldorf Astoria, Fiesta Americana, Hilton properties
If you are a family on a budget looking for spring break ideas on destinations, these work below but the weather may be very iffy. We do recommend renting a condo or house at these destinations:
- Destin, Florida
- Orange Beach, Alabama
- Seaside Beach, Florida
- Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
- Galveston Island, Texas
If you have teenagers that may want to semi-be by college students, with your watchful parental eyes but still let them have some fun, we recommend these spring break resorts:
- Fiesta Americana, Omni, or Hilton, Barcelo, or Westin properties in Cancun all-inclusive
- Sheraton, Marriot, Hilton, Fiesta Americana, Barcelo or RIU properties in Puerto Vallarta
- RIU Palace in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
- Atlantis, Nassau The Bahamas
- Any RIU properties in Punta Cana usually have a splattering of college students as well
If you are going with your college-aged students on spring break and need family spring break ideas, the resorts above are the SAME for you. They will provide adequate luxury for you as an adult as well.
