think it over. Her answer was quite
simple. “Eating ice cream,” she said.
“Strawberry or vanilla, but definitely
not chocolate.”
Asking what kids want in a
vacation can help make the overall
vacation planning process easier as
it can help narrow down those
destinations and resorts best fit your
family. Most importantly it means
your overall vacation experience is
what everyone wants it to be. Your
kids might even bring up some very
valid points that can make the trip a
little more fun for everyone.
Pacing your vacation is also key
to keeping your gang happy. You
don’t want to tire little ones out by
cramming in too many attractions
or activities into one day. Schedule
one activity in the morning and
one in the afternoon, and allow a
little time for rest and relaxation
in between.
“I don’t like it when we have to
walk a lot on vacation to look at
things only my mom and dad like,”
said Jimmy (8), from Toronto. “That’s
not a good vacation for a kid. Kids
like going to the pool and playing at
the beach.”
Taking that into consideration,
Moon Palace Jamaica Grande in
Ocho Rios, Jamaica is located a
convenient five minutes away from
downtown Ocho Rios, so you have
the choice of enjoying the relaxing
and convenient confines of the
resort, it’s pools and beaches — or
going on an adventure of your own
in the city. Either way, little ones
won’t have to worry about too
much walking. Add to that a large
array of resort activities and fun
adventures and you’re set for the
vacation of a lifetime.
Depending on your family’s
personal tastes in food, activities and
lifestyle level of comfort, somewhere,
out there, surrounded by sea, sand
and sun, there awaits the perfect
all-inclusive fit. Do keep in mind that
all-inclusive resorts can vary in their
accommodations, dinning, services,
and amenities. Be sure to consult
your local travel professional as they
can help you find the perfect
all-inclusive resort where you and
your family can experience a truly
memorable vacation.
when it comes to choosing the perfect all-inclusive resort
for your family, it’s best to first consult the real experts: the kids.
