 – Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts, the leader in all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean, with properties in Dominican Republic, Mexico and Jamaica, is making Caribbean summer travel an exciting option for families with dedicated facilities, amenities and programs created with younger travelers in mind and a Kids Stay Free offer that will have parents eager to book their next vacation.

Bahia Principe hotels offer top of the line, five-star quality service. Kid-friendly touches abound, from family suites in select hotels where welcome packages include children’s bath kits and bathrobes, minibars come with milkshakes and soft drinks, children’s mini-clubs and even kids spa treatments. Babysitting services let parents take a romantic break too. For guests looking for adventure, the Bahia Scouts program combines fun, learning and excitement in supervised activities split by age group.

“We have taken fantastic steps to make summer 2017 not only more kid-friendly than ever, but even more affordable as part of our commitment to offering all-inclusive luxury travel the whole family can enjoy,” said Helen Montijano, VP of Sales, USA. “From the new waterpark at Grand Bahia Principe Jamaica, to the new five-star Luxury Bahia Principe Fantasia Don Pablo Collection in the Dominican Republic, Bahia Principe knows how to turn family vacations into memorable Caribbean fairy tales – all while offering competitive rates.”

Aside from tours for children and families, for example, exploring the Riviera Maya region’s natural settings to learn about its flora and fauna, Bahia Scouts offers activities ranging from making a piñata, karaoke, fruit carving, tree planting, eco-tours and more. Sports also keep kids active, including water polo, soccer and mini-Olympics games. The brand recently unveiled a new waterpark at Grand Bahia Principe Jamaica in Runaway Bay offering all-out fun for kids with slides and wading areas. The newly-opened Luxury Bahia Principe Fantasia Don Pablo Collection in Punta Cana features a pool with a fairy tale castle, complete with its own moat and bridge, a delight for children of all ages. Other family-friendly features in the new Fantasia include entertainment for all ages and a Kids Club with costume workshops, arts and crafts activities, cooking classes, expeditions and a waterpark. The Fantasia Teens Club for guests aged 12 to 17 is equipped with a gym, movie theater, DJ dance floor, video consoles, pool table, and spa.

The Kids Stay Free offer at select Bahia Principe properties makes family-friendly vacations more affordable.
