Time spent with your family is something that is very precious and if your family is anything like mine, if you don’t get at least one holiday per year, you tend to be like passing ships in the night with sporting commitments, school, work, and prior engagements taking up any spare time you would have to sit down and spend quality time together. Deciding on the perfect family holiday can often be stressful, but why should it be? I know everyone has different ideas of the perfect destination for their family but here are the top 5 luxury destinations that work well for most families.
Turks and Caicos
It is hard to pick just one Caribbean Island for this top five list but when you think luxury, Turks and Caicos would probably be at the top. The Caribbean has long been known for its stunning beaches and all-inclusive luxury resorts and with Turks and Caicos you have a range of hotels catering for families with kids clubs, water sports, land sports and best of all, food and drink thrown in to make it a great destination for families to relax and enjoy the Caribbean sun.
Maldives
The Maldives is usually best known as a honeymoon destination, but it is also great for families, if you choose the right island. One of the most beautiful places in the world, the Maldives is home to powder white sands, turquoise Indian Ocean waters and luxury beach and over-water villas, including some with private pools and water slides into the ocean. It really is the height of luxury and no matter how much you want to spoil the family, there is every option you can think of from bed and breakfast to all-inclusive and everything in between.
Dubai
If you are looking for luxury, then Dubai has it all for families. With a reputation for being a millionaire’s playground and renowned as the shopping capital of the world, Dubai amazes anyone that visits. From wild water parks with over 12 acres of thrilling rides and plenty of room to cool off from the very hot Dubai sun, to taking to the slopes in the indoor ski resort, it will leave memories the whole family will be talking about for years to come.
Mauritius
The second “honeymoon” destination on the list, but Mauritius is the gem in the Indian Ocean that is also a hot spot for luxury family holidays. With excellent family resorts, beautiful beaches and a range of activities for the whole family to enjoy, it will have you wanting more. With kids clubs and water sports for the children, a spa for mum and golf courses for dad, the only way to round off each day is a whole family, all inclusive dining experience at your hotel.
Orlando
It had to be really! Who doesn’t love a bit of Disney in their lives? The perfect destination for your family holiday, Orlando has it all – and not just theme parks! From Disneyworld, water parks and massive shopping malls, Orlando is home to the world’s greatest entertainment attractions. Of course, it is possible to do Orlando on a budget but if you are only going to do this place once in your life, you will soon see that budget blown.
Choosing just five destinations is so hard as there are so many places around the world that cater for families with children of all ages. If you would like help finding your next luxury family holiday, please don’t hesitate to contact me on 07903 737959 or louisepeddelty@gocruiseandtravel.co.uk
