08.04.2021 Family activities

Organizing a family vacation can be an overwhelming task: excited children, not forgetting anything outside the suitcase, going over budget… these can be different reasons for stress that can cause the vacation to get off to a bad start.

But don't worry, we have the solution for you below: we offer different tips that will surely help make planning your family trip easier and more exciting.

Whether you're looking for a relaxing, active, or fun-filled holiday, we have all the details on how to plan your next family vacation!


1. Decide on the ideal destination for a family vacation

To plan your family vacation, start by choosing the destination that best suits your needs. At this point, there are several things to consider: the type of experience you want, how much you're willing to spend, what you'd like to see or do, and the different interests of each family member.

Furthermore, it's very important to choose a family-friendly destination, that is, tourist destinations that specialize in family tourism. If you want to spend a beach vacation with the whole family, look no further, come and enjoy your vacation in Lloret de Mar, an ideal beach destination for families: water parks, beaches with kids' clubs, resort hotels perfect for families, and much more!


2. Set a budget and get the best price

Not sure where to start planning a family vacation? The first thing you can do is create a budget—that is, decide how much money you want to spend and on what. Once you've decided on your budget, you'll be able to more easily choose your destination, accommodation, and activities.

With your budget set, there are different ways to get the best price for your vacation. Here are two tips to help you save on your holiday:

Take a look at our Hotel Rosamar Garden Resort, where you can book your tailor-made family holiday: room only, bed and breakfast, half board, full board, or all inclusive! Come and enjoy and relax at this family-friendly hotel, where you'll find a variety of activities for the whole family .


3. Let the whole family save for the trip

Get the whole family involved in collecting money for the trip! Even if it's just a symbolic gesture, the little ones will surely love feeling like they've contributed to the family vacation. Put a small piggy bank at home, and whenever you have a few extra coins... into the vacation fund! A really fun idea to fully experience the excitement of traveling as a family.


4. Book your accommodation, prepare your car, and have all your documents ready

Avoid last-minute surprises! On a family vacation, improvising is never a good idea. To ensure a smooth trip, take care of all the details before you leave. Make a list of things you need to do before your trip, such as checking that everyone's passports are up to date or, if you're traveling by car, making sure the tires are in good condition.

Does any member of your family have special needs? Are you traveling with a baby? Will you be bringing your pet? If you think it's necessary, be sure to inform the transport company or accommodation before your arrival so they can take it into account and you can have a wonderful, worry-free family trip.


5. Plan your schedule and organize your stay well

Create a travel plan with the activities each family member wants to do at your destination. Some activities may need to be booked in advance, so this step is essential to ensure you don't miss any events or activities!

6. Pack your suitcase

Packing for a vacation with children can be a daunting task for any parent. Make a list and divide it into three columns. Start by noting the essentials: medications, documents, glasses, contact lenses, keys, cards, and anything else you know you won't find at your destination. Then, make another list for things you'll need during the trip: each child's favorite toy, snacks, entertainment, etc. And finally, list the things you'll actually use during the vacation: clothes, shoes, toiletries, etc. Once you've made your list, double-check that you have everything before you leave, and then enjoy!
