Best Family Vacation Resorts & Hotel Suites, Cottages, & Villas

Submitted by Kate Gillan on Sat, 02/15/2025 - 12:00pm

Beaches Turks and Caicos appeals to families with kids of all ages.

Planning a family vacation with the extended clan is exciting, but it also presents a challenge—finding a place big enough to fit Grandma and Grandpa, aunts and uncles, cousins, and anyone else you want to bring along. Sure, you can rent a home, but sometimes you want to soak up some of those vacay vibes yourself in a resort-like atmosphere. Is that too much to ask?

We're happy to share that it's not! We've found 23 resorts that are perfect for a family vacation or family reunion, where everyone can stay under one roof. They include hotels with rockstar pools or water parks, kids clubs, and activities galore for all ages. And with adjacent villas, spacious suites with full kitchens, or even separate cabins or homes, they all allow for large groups.

Read on for the best family vacation resorts with hotel suites, cottages, and villas. Our Guide to Family-Friendly Resorts and Hotels has even more great options, including our popular list of the best all-inclusive resorts in the US, Caribbean, and Mexico.

A jewel of an island located 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod, Nantucket is only 14 miles long and 3.5 wide, with an extremely walkable (or bikeable!) downtown. This tiny size makes it hard to find great places to stay, especially with kids!

We’ve put together a list of the best Nantucket hotels, resorts, and even a couple of vacation home rentals that we think are just right for families. Each offers an array of amenities onsite, including luxurious swimming pools (one just for children), babysitting services and kids clubs, private beaches, and even a ride on a vintage fire truck.

Read on to discover the top resorts and hotels on this unique nautical paradise, and for kid-friendly activity ideas, check out Nantucket With Kids: Best Things To Do in Nantucket, MA and our
