The best family vacation spots strike a balance of possibilities for all interests and ages — time to relax, a chance for adventure and plenty of engaging activities somewhere in between. More often than not, a beach is considered the perfect destination for a family vacation; all-inclusive resorts promise a wide range of offerings, while still cultivating a one-of-a-kind ambiance and vibe. Consider the following resorts from the Palace Company as prime examples.
Sub out a beach day for an enchanting dip at Dunn's River Falls, Jamaica.
Moon Palace Jamaica

- World-class dining options comprising gourmet and international flavors are on site, such as authentic Jamaican fare at Buccaneers Reef, Italian specialties at Gondola, Asian delights at Momo or quaint, airy Parisian café treats at Boulangerie.
- Luxurious spa treatments that soothe the body and soul await at O Spa — the largest spa on the island — offering everything from deep-tissue massages to restorative hydrotherapy.
- All-inclusive non-motorized watersports means there’s no shortage of ways to play in the water. Explore the surrounding coast via catamaran, paddleboard or kayak, or hang 10 with the immaculate waves of FlowRider®.
