Top 10 Family Vacation Spots

Walt Disney World/ Orlando Florida- This is the obvious choice for a family vacation. There’s loads of fun to be had around every corner and there’s something for everyone. From theme park rides to experiences with your favorite characters, dining, spa experiences, and even some off-property fun at Universal Orlando Resort. Orlando has you covered.


Hawaii - While it may take a long trip to get there from the east coast of the US Hawaii has some really amazing experiences for your family to have. From experiencing an ancient and beautiful culture, sandy beaches, surfing, luaus, warm ocean water, and visiting a pineapple plantation this is a great choice to really HAVE an experience as a family.

Rehoboth Beach, DE - It’s a classic beach town that many flock to for their summer vacation. You can grab a great cup of coffee for a morning sunset stroll, visit Dogfish Head Brewery for drinks and food at night, spend the day just enjoying the beach, and strolling the boardwalk at night. It really is just a classic beach town to enjoy a week away from it all.

Cape May, NJ - Another classic beach town Cape May is a beautiful and clean beach to head to. With loads of activities, your family won’t be bored. Spend all day at the beach then pack up and head out for some fun at a miniature gold course, play at the arcade, visit a museum, or just enjoy a really great seafood dinner!

Outer Banks, North Carolina - Rent a house on the beach and just enjoy the view! The Outer Banks is a super popular vacation spot for families with loads of activities to experience besides the beach! Visit historic lighthouses, head to the Wright Brother’s Museum, experience wild horses, go kayaking and even see some bottle nose dolphins.

New York City - This city really does have it all. Catch a show on Broadway, walk through Central Park and go on a horse-drawn carriage ride, visit one of the incredible museums, find some seriously fun and eclectic dining experiences, see the Empire State Building, visit Yankee Stadium, Coney Island, Times Square, and even the Central Park Zoo! You’ll be exhausted from this trip that you’ll need another vacation.

Cancun, Mexico - a super affordable way to get away and experience another culture with your kids! Flights are almost always super affordable and with many all-inclusive resorts offering a Kids Stay Free option you’d be silly to not at least go once! Cancun has some of the most stunning beaches and with most resorts, there’s always something to do when the entertainment team is great.

Hershey, PA - Not just for theme park enthusiasts! Hershey has a wonderful spa (with a chocolate inspired experience menu!), museums, water park and a zoo!

Atlanta, Georgia: Georgia Aquarium - While Atlanta has some really amazing things to do I 100% suggest visiting the Georgia aquarium if you visit here. Your children can experience the LARGEST shark in the world up close and personal - The Whale Shark. They will be mesmerized.

Park City, Utah - This is mainly for those who love skiing! It’s super close to the airport and there’s a free town shuttle to get around. There’s terrain for all ages and ski abilities, fun experiences for those who aren’t really into skiing like snowmobiling or even head out on a sleigh ride! You can find a bunch of different accommodation types here and some fun dining experiences as well.
