The Family Club at Barceló Bávaro Palace in Punta Cana delivers a dream vacation for the young and the young at heart, including such exciting activities as Laser Tag, an 18-hole mini golf course, and the Xone Teen Disco. This new hotel, located within the Barceló Bávaro Palace Deluxe, is made up of 288 family suites with microwave and minibar meet your family’s every need, stocked with juices, cereals and milk. Added bonus: the family suites feature two bedrooms, creating independent areas for adults and kids. Because sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

Barceló Aruba gives the whole family easy access to plenty of on-the-water adventures on the gorgeous Palm Beach seafront. The lovely Fisherman’s Hut Beach features soft winds and gentle currents, making it an ideal spot for beginners in the art of windsurfing, kitesurfing, snorkeling and more. The quintessentially Caribbean resort offers equipment rental and instructor-led lessons for all levels of experience.

Highlighted by a sandy stretch of Playa Arena Gorda (widely considered one of the Dominican Republic’s most beautiful beaches), Occidental Caribe is perfect for families. The splash-filled Barcy Water Park will provide hours of fun in the sun; the trapeze and rock climbing area (for kids four to 12 years of age) offers unforgettable adventure; and the theatre with a mini-disco features the latest pop hits in a safe, inclusive environment.

The Barceló Maya Grand Resort – made up of five adjacent resorts that all share one of the longest stretches of private beach access in Riviera Maya – is a great example of the Barceló Hotel Group’s family-focused approach. Kids ages four to 12 will love the Barcy Kids Club, offering a program of supervised activities for children in a fun, safe environment. And even mom and dad will want to make a splash or two at the resort’s Pirate Island Water Park, filled with slides and other aquatic attractions.
