Springtime at Reid Travel is a
time for planning. As flowers blossom in
April, so do our thoughts about family travel ideas. Summer is not far away so this week we share
with you a place that will appeal to almost any family as it has something for
everyone and it’s really close to home—Grand Velas Riviera Maya, a Mexico
beach resort in Playa Del Carmen.
Imagine 85 magnificent
acres surrounded by the Caribbean Sea and lush jungle. The resort features elegant suites with
luxurious amenities, many categories of room/suite styles, fine dining in a
variety of restaurants, 24-hour in-suite dining, the famous Kid’s Club and many
more amenities which are included in the all-inclusive
program. It boasts a family-friendly
section as well as an area exclusively for adults and guests over 12 years
old.
For Teens: the perfect place for kids to chill out in a
relaxed environment. Created for ages
13-18, it’s ultra-cool! They can dance
the night away (‘till 12:00 PM, that is), or become the next rock star with the
karaoke system. Non-alcoholic beverages
are the drink de jour and pool tables, ping pong and board games keep the
camaraderie going. From 11:00 AM – 12:00
PM, you’ll know where your teens are while they create memories through fun
activities in a supervised environment.
For Youngsters: 5 – 12-year old kids can enjoy movies,
storytelling, arts and crafts, board
games and Bingo. They have an opportunity to learn how to make
piñatas, kites, masks, jewelry and find amusement in the video area with a
theater, X-Box and Wii gaming systems.
Daily activities are flexible to fit your children’s age and
desires. The Kid’s Club is open every
day from 9:00 AM -- 11:00 PM. After
that, babysitting is available.
For Babies: traveling with babies is much simpler at
Grand Velas. A dedicated Baby Concierge will make arrangements
to keep the little ones happy allowing parents to relax in this paradise. A sunrise massage for 1 to 3-year olds is on
the agenda enabling the child to recognize the differences between textures and
sounds.
While your kids are being
well-taken care of, you can surrender to blissful rejuvenation at the Grand
Velas Spa. The Life Fitness Center is outfitted with state-of-the-art cardio
stations with climbers, cross trainers, treadmills and bikes, as well as weight
training stations. This tranquil escape
features 40 spa suites and a myriad of healing rituals, including massage, body
wraps and facials. If that’s not enough,
energize your routine with Zumba, Pilates, tai chi and yoga classes and a
personal trainer to help you keep focused.
Wait, there’s more: outdoor
activities, including kayaks, snorkeling, bicycle tours, water polo, flag
football, arts and crafts, sand castle building, scuba diving lessons and
fishing trips. You may not want to leave
the premises, but the culture of the area beckons with tours to the Mayan
jungle and ruins; trips to Xel-Ha, a
natural aquarium located on an inlet along the Riviera Maya; Xcaret where you will see turtle
nesting sites, manatees, a butterfly pavilion, bat cave, island of jaguars, and
orchid greenhouses among the many sites that make up this diverse eco-park; and
Xplor a park in the heart of the
forest where you can enjoy activities of adventure with the most modern and
safest equipment.
Travel is an opportunity to
be enlightened and as your travel specialist, we can make sure this is true for
each member of your group during a family vacation. Give us a call to learn about the exclusive
privileges we can provide for you!
