Beaches Resorts: The Surprising Truth about Multi-Generational Travel

Taking a family vacation gives you the opportunity to share your love of travel with your kids. Not only do you visit a particular destination, but you see and experience things you dreamt about since you were a child.

But have you ever thought of inviting your parents or siblings and their children along for the adventure?

While the thought of vacationing with your parents may not sound like a good idea, many are choosing multi-generational vacations.

Why?

Because you get to spend time with loved ones while exploring destinations such as the Caribbean, Europe, Australia, and other areas around the globe – fun, right?

And yet you haven’t embraced multi-generational travel. You don’t know what you’re missing!

The Joy of Traveling with Family

Multi-generational travel provides you with the opportunity to create lifelong family memories. Imagine watching dolphins splash in and out of the ocean from a chartered boat. Picture you, your parents, and your kids watching the sunset in Jamaica. All of these and other experiences could strengthen your relationship as a family. It’s one of the many benefits of a multi-generational vacation. Others include:

• Discover things about your family that you didn’t know about. For example, you may learn learn your parents always wanted to visit the Caribbean, but couldn’t afford to do so when they were first married.

• Create memories you can share for years to come. Perhaps you love scrapbooking. You could create one for each of your multi-generational vacations. You can look at the scrapbooks during the holidays, birthdays, or just whenever.

• Get in touch with your inner child. Adults sometimes forget how wonderful the world is. You could be like a child and see the world as a magical place full of opportunity. Perhaps if you do this, you’ll realize that life is too short to allow anyone or anything to disrupt your sense of wonder and peace.

• Teach your kids patience and tolerance. You and your parents can teach your kids to accept and appreciate the differences and similarities of people around the world. If your kids get cranky because of a long wait in line, you can teach them the art of patience and how to enjoy the moment. Of course, stepping out of line isn’t a bad idea, either.

The simple truth is that multi-generational travel offers you a rewarding experience of spending time with your extended family. If you don’t get to see each other as often as you’d like, taking a vacation together gives you the chance to reconnect.

Keep in mind that it’s important to choose a destination that has something for everyone, especially when it comes to activities. For example, you may enjoy golf, but your family may find it boring. No problem. You can hit a few rounds by yourself.

Many millennial families prefer all-inclusive resorts, like Beaches resorts for multi-generational travel. Why? Because everything’s included, from tips to food – all you have to do is arrive in Jamaica or the Turks and Caicos and have a great time. It’s that simple!
