2017 Top Vacation Destinations

Puerto Rico

If you are looking for a destination with amazing beaches, rich history, and world-class resorts, Puerto Rico is for you! During your adventure; you can dive coral reefs, trek through jungles, shop until you drop, or just lay on the beach. You can enjoy a family cruise to Puerto Rico or spend time at one of the many incredible hotels. The choice is yours in this tropical paradise.

Sandals Emerald Bay, Golf, Tennis and Spa Resort in Great Exuma, Bahamas

Where intimate seclusion meets the golfer’s paradise on this outer island in the Bahamas. This paradise island is just 50 miles off the Florida coast; allowing it to be the perfect romantic getaway for adults only. This easy-going luxury resort has the supreme service of club level and butler rooms only. Three impressive pools, including a dramatic fireplace in the center of a pool and zero depth entry. There are seven exceptional restaurants to satisfy any palate. An exotic adventure can begin right from the shores of this resort, from snorkeling to experiencing the wild pigs swimming out to meet you. This resort has the attitude of do as much as you want or nothing at all.

Beaches Turks & Caicos Resort Village and Spa

This all-inclusive family filled luxury resort is perfection for all types of families. With four magnificent villages that represent Italy, France, Key West and the Caribbean. The resort hosts a 12 mile long beach with the turquoise water for hosting snorkeling wind surfing, paddle board, sailing and kayaks. Your teens and tots will be busy from morning till night with endless fun in the water park, Xbox lounge, and the dance club. This island resort is the perfect setting for multi generational family vacations. One of our favorite FREE amenities at Beaches is the vow renewal that allows you and the whole family (including the kids) to experience your moment. 

Punta Cana

Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic has everything you need for the perfect Caribbean vacation. From amazing resorts to stunning beaches and world-class golf courses, there is something for the whole family. No matter your budget or dreams, Punta Cana is the place for you. A brand new Nickelodeon Resort just opened in this island oasis and is a fun escape. 

Alaska

Alaska is America’s final frontier. Whether you visit on a cruise or stay at one of the breathtaking resorts, you will not be disappointed. If you are looking for a more relaxing experience, a cruise with stops in Alaska cities may be a perfect trip. If you are more of an adventure seeking family, planning a tour throughout Alaska may be a better fit for you. Live out your dreams by climbing glaciers, seeing amazing wildlife, and so much more!

Hard Rock All Inclusive Resorts

With four resorts in places like Mexico and the Caribbean, Hard Rock All-Inclusive Resorts are the perfect choice for a couples getaway or a family vacation. The Hard Rock Resorts offer everything you are looking for, including amazing beaches, cool pools, world-class restaurants, high energy nightlife, and much more. The teen clubs are the best in the industry, and you have to drag your kids away for bed each night. 

Adventures by Disney

Are you looking for the ultimate family “luxury” experience to destinations around the world? You may want to try an Adventures by Disney vacation. This is a tour experience, so you are joining a group of families. You will make lifelong friends! Disney provides amazing tours to Italy, New York, Nashville, Costa Rica, Peru, and more. All of these experiences provide unique local and behind the scenes experience. Once you take an Adventures by Disney Tour, you will never look at tour travel the same again.

Hawaii

Aloha! Once you visit Hawaii, you will want to return again and again. The beauty, adventure, culture, food and atmosphere makes Hawaii one of the Top 10 places to visit in 2017. There are so many places in Hawaii to visit. For families, Maui is my top pick with great resorts, shopping, excursions, and dining.  It is a great island to experience Hawaii for 1st timers.

Will this list make you think again about going to the local beach this year? Where would you like to go in 2017.
