Jamaica Villa - ideal for young families

Two friends of mine recently teamed up together to rent a private villa in Jamaica. Both had children under the age of 5 and were looking for a Caribbean escape for much needed R and R.. They choose the Jamaica Villas Resort as it provided these families with all the comforts of a home plus the added bonus of in- house service. Service from a cook who will go out and make what ever you fancy for dinner – to a babysitter who will look after your infant while you visit the beach with the older kids.

They arrived back last week and raved about their experience. They loved the private pool and ability to relax in their own villa. The independence was great and they loved their own cook, driver and cleaning staff! The villa also seemed to offer some good options as it is located within a hotel complex, they had the option of using the hotel services. They played a round of golf and had the odd meal in the Hotel restaurant.

Costa Rica Family Adventure Vacation

With it’s kind people, safe travel environment, dozens of incredibly diverse national parks, two oceans, active Volcano’s, incredible whitewater rafting and of course amazing wildlife viewing, Costa Rica is ideal for a family adventure vacation. But with so much to see and do, what do you include in your 1 to 2 week adventure and what do you omit? Do you look for Turtles at Torruguerro, relax on a beach on the Pacific’s Tamarindo, hop in a plane to visit the rainforest of Corcavado, walk the cloud forests at Montverde. Where are the crowds going and where are they not going? Typically at Langford and Co we recommend families combine one or two National parks in Costa Rica and resist the urge to visit both coasts. With so many options we recommend contacting a trip planner or adventure travel expert like Langford & Company. to help organize the trip for your family.
