One of the most important points when planning a family vacation is that “it’s all about the kids.” And a budget-friendly timeshare rental at a kid-friendly resort can be the holy grail for many parents.
With over 6,000 timeshare resorts now world-wide, there is a multitude of types of resorts, and you might think that hunting for that perfect kid-friendly one is the needle in a haystack puzzle. Not to worry – RedWeek has a section specifically designed to point you as unerring as a compass to the perfect resort destination where Kid is King.
Here are 2 top-rated kid-friendly resorts listed in RedWeek’s August newsletter, just to help get you started.
Disney’s Old Key West Resort , Orlando, FL. Located in the heart of Walt Disney World, this resort offers all sorts of fun, from waterways to woodlands. The timeshare units go up to 3-bedrooms sleeping eight, perfect for larger families.
For fun at this resort (not counting all of Walt Disney World!) there are four heated pools and a kiddie pool, as well as paddle boats on a pretty lake that winds through the resort. When you’re ready to head into WDW, you can take the fun free water taxi!
If you choose to have a meal out, dinner is served family-style at the popular on-sight restaurant, Olivia’s Café.
