Places to go away with a baby

DH has informed me that he wants to go awayChat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Anyway - we're looking for something baby friendly (no cruises) - Joseph will be 14 mos old when we go. My travel agent recommended Cancun and Aruba - we don't want to fly far - but maybe you ladies can give me some recommendations of where you've been!Chat Icon

Haven't traveled with Andrew yet, but we're planning a trip with Hayley from Beach Bum Vacations. For a family trip she has recommended Beaches Turks & Caicos (3 hour flight) and also the Holiday Inn Sunspree, Divi Beach Resort, Tamarijn Resort and Aruba Resort and Casino in Aruba.

Aruba is great for families it isvery baby friendly. When we went on our honeymoon the pool was filled with babies.

We stayed at the Radisson and it has a zero entry pool which is great for babies.

The locations was great also because it was walking distance from restaurants and shopping. This wayyou don't have to worry about car seats all the time you just put him in the stroller and walk.

Re: Places to go away with a baby

I definitely agree with Aruba. DH and I just got back from our Babymoon and there were so many kids there! Besides the one in my belly, the youngest one we saw at our hotel was 4 months old. She even went inthe water (pool and ocean!). Her daddy held her in a waterproof carrier. Like a baby bjorn type thing. That particular family had 3 kids! We were one of the only families there without kids. We stayed at the Marriott Surf Club time share.

Re: Places to go away with a baby

Thanks everyone - I was worried about the weather in Aruba. I know it can be quite windy and wasn't sure if he'd be uncomfortable. Did you notice a problem w/ it?

Also, do you know of this hotel? Thx!

Holiday Inn Sunspree in Aruba

Actually in Aruba you need the wind...otherwise the sun is H O T!!!!

Sometimes it's whipping, but I was never like ugh this wind is terrible. I know it is a little more pronounced near the high-rise hotels...

we stayed at the Divi and it wasn't that bad...

Re: Places to go away with a baby

I think princessmaris is going to Turks and Caicos - I HIGHLY recommend Turks - I have been going for years (to club med) and we plan on going to beaches maybe in Dec. or January. The other trip I want to take with her is to Club Med Sandpiper...both places have gotten amazing reviews from my mommy friends and are much closer than Aruba.
