The Bahamas
2 of 6
The easy access to the Bahamas makes the island a popular gathering place for family members of all ages.
It's a beach destination that has offerings that appeal to the little ones and the older ones, said Lindsey Ueberroth, president & CEO of Preferred Hotel Group. "For most families it won't be too long of a plane ride, but when you land, it still feels like you are some place exotic."
For example, the Atlantis Paradise Island resort offers a kid's adventure club, a teen nightclub and a casino for the adult crowd.
