Today’s travelers are seeking to reconnect with families and friends, create special life-lasting memories, and engage in new experiences where there is an abundance of sunshine, stunning landscapes, and fun activities to enjoy together – and Jamaica more than delivers on this for year-round travel for families, reunions, multi-generational and other small group getaways. Travel advisors can better sell this tropical paradise by highlighting these key reasons why Jamaica is ideal for this type of getaway.
Spacious Accommodations
Families and friends typically spend most of their Jamaica getaway out of their hotel room, but accommodations – their “home away from home” – is still very important; think of leisurely mornings, mid-day downtime, pre-dinner fun, and night caps to enhance the evening’s festivities.
Jamaica is known for its large selection of all-inclusive properties catering to families and small groups with spacious accommodations and suites affording multiple bedding options and well-appointed spaces to comfortably spread out in and relax. Balconies and terraces provide additional space, scenic views, and fresh air. Palladium Hotel Group features two all-inclusive properties that are conveniently located between Montego Bay and Negril – Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa and Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa – offering junior suites and suites with separate bedrooms, perfect for families, multi-generational groups or several families traveling together.
Spectacular Beaches
Jamaica is celebrated for its picturesque beaches fronting warm, turquoise waters. Travelers can lounge for the day on stretches of sun-splashed sand hugging the island’s coast or swim in refreshing waves. The choice of watersports is excellent, including snorkeling, kayaking, scuba diving, windsurfing, parasailing and banana boating. Families and multi-generational groups can also play beach volleyball, take a sunset walk before dinner, or watch the stars at night to further strengthen the connection between family members and loved ones.
All-Inclusive Ease
At an all-inclusive resort, travelers can opt to be as busy or relaxed as they want to be, knowing that seemingly endless activities at no extra cost are available for them to experience.
Jamaica’s all-inclusive properties feature an extensive selection of activities for travelers of multiple ages and interests, including activities to be experienced together or separately, along with diverse dining. With such widespread choice, travelers can choose the activities most appealing to them, try new things, or do their favorite leisure pursuits almost daily. Important for traveling with the younger set, Jamaica all-inclusive properties targeting families are known for dedicated spaces for parents and kids, including separate pools, private beach areas, and restaurants with special menus, plus children’s clubs for babies, kids and teenagers.
Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa and Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa feature dedicated kids and adult pools, an on-property waterpark, 10 restaurants serving a range of cuisine, the Zentropia Palladium Spa & Wellness center, direct access to the beach and a number of sports and water activities, and a complete program of live daily and nightly entertainment for all ages.
Superb Activities
Jamaica is tons of fun for families, multi-generational and celebratory groups. Beyond the traditional watersports to be experienced on Jamaica, popular island activities include hiking Dunn’s River Falls, exploring the award-winning working estate Croydon Plantation and sampling citrus fruits, biking through the lush Blue Mountains where the island’s signature coffee is grown, admiring the birds and nature scenery at Rocklands Bird Sanctuary, shopping on Gloucester Avenue, horseback riding, golf, jungle zip-lining, rafting on the Martha Brae River, visiting the Luminous Lagoon that glows at night, and learning about reggae music at the Trench Town Culture Yard.
The Value Of Travel Convenience & Cost
Ease of travel and exceptional value for money are key drivers for booking a vacation to Jamaica. Flights to the island from many North American cities are available on multiple airlines, which becomes particularly convenient when booking a holiday for travelers coming from different gateways. Equally important is the hotel cost – fortunately, Jamaica features resorts offering a wide range of prices to fit travelers’ varied budgets, making the dream of vacationing and reconnecting with loved ones in a beautiful beachfront location a reality.
Combining travel convenience and cost with Jamaica’s stunning beaches, excellent range of activities, and all-inclusive value makes creating life-lasting memories with family and friends in a Caribbean paradise easier than ever.
