Here’s another resort idea for larger families traveling together…Sensira Resort and Spa offers 359 guest rooms; several room categories are two bedroom suites (plus a sofa bed) which can accommodate parties of 7.  This resort is located 20-25 min. south of Cancun’s airport, so it’s within easy driving distance once you’ve landed. It also offers 8 restaurants, 5 bars, 3 pools (including an adults-only and a separate family pool), a children’s water park area, mini-golf course, children’s zipline, climbing wall, and a Toddler’s Club for 18 mos. thru 3 yrs. (along with the typical Kid’s and Teen Clubs).

Family Of Five+ Friendly Resorts–Villa del Palmar Cancun

Here’s another idea for larger families who want to stay together in basically the same space while vacationing.  Check out Villa del Palmar Cancun, an all-inclusive OPTIONAL resort (so be careful when booking or you may wind up with a European meal plan and have to pay a lot extra when checking in…).  This beautiful resort has 415 rooms, suites, and residences from which to choose, 5 pools, 5 restaurants, 6 bars, a garden spa on-site, plus a children’s water park which actually consists of inflatables located within the ocean.  This resort is also located close to the ferry pier to Isla Mujeres, so that is another plus for staying here.

Family Of Five+ Family Resorts–Hilton Cancun Mar Caribe

Here’s another suggestion for larger families or parties traveling together–the Hilton Cancun Mar Caribe was just listed as #24 out of 25 “Best All-Inclusive Resorts For Families” by Travel and Leisure.  (Don’t confuse this Hilton resort with Hilton Cancun, that is another resort located in the Riviera Maya). This resort is situated in Cancun’s Hotel Zone and about a 25 min. drive north of the Cancun airport.  With its location on an eastern-facing beach in the Hotel Zone, parents and vacationers in general may want to keep in mind that the surf is rough in this section of the Hotel Zone and there are chances of experiencing rip currents–not exactly swimming conditions you’d want beginning swimmers to experience.  You may find that many vacation days at the beach may be red-flagged which means dangerous swimming conditions where getting into the ocean past your knees is inadvisable.

Family Of Five+ Friendly Resorts–The Royal Sands

The Royal Sands is another Cancun all-inclusive resort perfect for accommodating families of 5+; it is approximately a 20-25 min. drive north of the Cancun airport.  This resort is part of Royal Resorts (a timeshare/vacation club or whatever it may be labelled these days), so just keep that in mind when booking this resort.  That means that if you are staying over on a Saturday (and you are not a timeshare owner) you just may be asked to change rooms due to owners having first dibs on particular rooms for their dates of stay.  Other than that, this is a good choice for basic pool and beach fun in the sun for larger families/parties traveling together.

Family Of Five+ Friendly Resorts–Seadust Cancun Family Resort

Here’s another all-inclusive resort to add to the list of those that cater to larger families–Seadust Cancun Family Resort.  This resort is located on an eastern-facing beach in Cancun’s Hotel Zone between Iberostar Selection Coral and what used to be known as the Royal Islander–an excellent location in terms of being fairly close to the Cancun airport (a 15 min. drive) for those families who don’t want to spend another hour getting to a resort after a potentially long flight with children in tow.  Vacationers should be aware that this resort, in a way, looks like a cruise ship, both interior and exterior-wise.  It’s rather cavernous once you step inside the lobby area, and the sound may carry upwards to some interior hallways which lead to guest rooms. Best to request rooms on higher floors if noise bothers you.

A New Series Of Blog Articles–Resorts That Can Accommodate Families of 5+

I get quite a few inquiries requesting information about all-inclusive resorts that can accommodate families of 5 or more…Many existing resorts can only comfortably accommodate families of 4 but obviously not all families vacationing together only consist of 2 parents and 2 children–it’s become quite a vacation trend for multigenerational family vacations where there are lots of people wanting to stay together in close proximity to one another.
