The activity pool has a swim-up bar, water volleyball net, and activities throughout the day like water aerobics. The other pool has a more tranquil vibe with loads of shaded lounge chairs surrounding it. There’s even a mini pool for the kids right near the kids’ club. You’ll love walking the long stretch of beach right in front of the property.

Grand Palladium White Sand Resort & Spa | Riviera Maya

Grand Palladium is, through and through, the classic type of all-inclusive resort for families you imagine visiting in Mexico. But while other brands may have gotten too big or crowded, with the quality of food and service inevitably decreasing, these guys do it right. White Sand is one of four resorts on their Riviera Maya compound (sister resorts “Colonial” and “Kantenah” are also family-friendly, whereas the fourth, TRS Yucatan Hotel, is adults-only), which allows guests the unique opportunity of having both an intimate resort feel while being able to access the amenities (restaurants, pools, and more) of the neighboring resorts. If your kids (or spouse!) tend to get bored in one place quickly, this is the perfect answer.

Kids will love the interesting animals they encounter, whether real (there is a large flock of flamingos that live on the property, as well as plenty of cute coatis, iguanas, and more) or “Raggs” (the resort mascots, colorful dog characters that entertain children throughout the resort by singing, dancing, reading stories, and posing for photos)

Nickelodeon Resorts Punta Cana | Dominican Republic

Punta Cana is a popular tourist destination in the Dominican Republic known for its stunning white sandy beaches, crystal-clear waters, and tropical climate. The beaches in Punta Cana are among the most beautiful in the world, with miles of soft, powdery sand and turquoise waters. When it comes to places to stay when traveling with young children, you will 100% want to stay at a resort known for children’s programs and we definitely recommend Nickelodeon Resorts, Punta Cana.

This beachfront property tops our list of best all-inclusive resorts for families as it has direct access to the beach and some of the rooms are literally steps from the beach. The beach is great for walking or frolicking in the waves and is not too far from the pool, the beach bars, and restaurants. The rooms are on the side of the resort closest to the beach, and the waterpark is on the other side. It’s easy to get around the resort with shuttles and golf carts driven by staff and running continuously all day. If you are not experiencing mobility challenges, it’s about a 5-minute walk from the rooms to the waterpark once you’ve familiarized yourself with the layout of the property.

Margaritaville Beach Resort | Playa Flamingo, Costa Rica

Since Flaming Beach is along Brasilito Bay, the waters tend to be calmer than many other beaches in Costa Rica. 

 

Additional reporting by Claire Zlobin & Jenny Hart

Traveling with teens is a whole new ballgame. When the kids were little, you picked where you wanted to go, ensured there were activities the family would enjoy, and off you went. With teens, you’ll be better off consulting with them on activities and getting their buy-in before you book (or brace yourself for surliness later).

With that in mind, we’ve highlighted some places that we think teens will love, from the usual beach activities to off-the-beaten-path destinations. All the resorts listed below have accommodation options that are great for families traveling with teens and are ideal for multi-generational and group travel as well.

Bonus: They all include Kids’ Club programs

You might hear “all-inclusive” and envision crowded buffets and packed pools, but the truth is, all-inclusive resorts can be kind of perfect for families. Not only is there a smorgasbord of activities to choose from (usually gated off from the outside world, so relatively safe for older kids to explore independently)—but you won’t be hit with an exorbitant bill that’ll zap always all those breezy vacay vibes as fast as you can say, “Check, please.”

What’s even better? There are all-inclusive resorts where your kids can stay free, meaning you get a whole crew’s-worth of perks for the price of two parents (single parents can usually get one child free).

So whether you want to bask on the beach in Mexico, ride a horse in Colorado, or binge at the buffet in Aruba, the world is waiting. Here are our favorite all-inclusive resorts where your kids can stay free.

Note: Unless otherwise mentioned, the “Kids Stay Free” programs usually include up to 2 children per 2 adults.
