A destination wedding with kids will make everyone in your family happy! All three of these resorts include full-day programs for children of all ages, from infants to teens.

Beaches offers a wide variety of activities with most included at no additional cost. There are all kinds of water sports including one of the top five diving programs in the Western hemisphere. Your kids (and maybe you) will want to spend all day at the water slides and lazy rivers. You can also enjoy tennis, croquet and volleyball. The Beaches in Ocho Rios even has a golf course with greens fees included, and golf clinic for kids. Of course, you don’t have to do anything! You could just relax on the beautiful beach with a tropical drink and a good book.
