So Many Resorts, So Little Time
There are a number of different all inclusive resort locations you can try. But keep in mind not all of them have childcare and programs for children and infants. If you have your sights set on a tropical vacation, there are a number of locations throughout North and South America as well as Europe to choose from.
Club Med (www.clubmed.com) has several resorts especially geared towards families. These Club Med vacations have Baby Club Med programs, for infants from 4 to 23 months. For an extra daily fee of $40 per day, you can place your infant in childcare programs with CPR trained nannies. Parents have given us rave reviews on Club Meds in Ixtapa, Mexico, Cancun, Mexico, and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The Club Med Cancun has had a recent remodel and word is that it's quite nice!
Beaches (www.beaches.com) resorts are all geared towards families. They also provide nannies who are certified as child development specialists through accredited U.S. university programs. Their youngest program caters to newborns through toddlers up to 23 months old. Beaches has some well regarded locations in the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Negril, and Turks and Caicos. If you're looking for a more upscale setting, some folks find the Beaches resorts to be a bit more luxurious in general.
