MULTI-GENERATIONAL TRAVEL DESTINATIONS
On this episode of Big Blend Radio, freelance travel writer Beth Graham discusses multi-general travel destinations including National Parks and Resorts in America, Mexico and Chile.
Extended families are taking more vacations together than ever before. Parents, grandparents, children and even great grandparents are venturing out together. But with such varying abilities, interests and requirements, finding a destination that makes everyone happy can be a challenge. For U.S. travelers, Mexico’s accessibility, affordability and abundant sunshine makes it the perfect destination for families looking to spend a little quality, and fun, time together. Many resorts are now catering to the growing trend of multi-generational travel and offering the perfect balance of spacious accommodations with a myriad of activities are geared to offer something for everyone from 9 months to 90 years.
Dining for families at Pueblo Bonito
Grand Residences Riviera Cancun offers a range of family-friendly accommodations from multi-bedroom suites to luxury penthouse suites that can accommodate up to 13 guests, some with private gardens and private swimming pools. Finding activities to please everyone from the youngest to the oldest is no problem at Barcelo Maya Grand Resort. The resort includes a 24-hour theatre-style sports bar for dad and grandpa, two theaters with live entertainment for grandma and mom, a teen disco, and for the little ones, or little ones at heart, there’s bowling, mini golf, zip lines, and more. If you’re looking for dining options that please a range of palates, Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Spa & Golf Resort offers an urban dining hall, more of an upscale food court, that will placate even the pickiest eaters.
But our national parks also offer amazing activities for multi-generational travel. Patagonia Camp in Southern Chile offer luxury “glamping” with family-friendly yurts and outdoor and nature excursions that fit every interest and ability level.
