Have you ever cried when leaving a vacation? <\/p>\n <\/p>\n At the 5-star, all-inclusive Iberostar Para\u00edso Maya<\/a>\u00a0we didn’t even feel a want to leave the resort. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n We chose ALL INCLUSIVE!<\/strong>\u00a0We didn’t have to bring food, plan a trip to the grocery store, or worry about renting a car. The boys thought they were in heaven ordering nachos + pina coladas for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Room service is any\/every hour of the day as well. You pay per guest + then the rest is taken care of. Such a easy way to travel with a family, or couple!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n But you know the realllllll winning factor for why we chose The Iberostar Para\u00edso Maya!?! I’m sure you saw it on my IG STORY, It’s their kids\u2019 is a program that includes more than 140 activities divided into 12 categories: physical leisure activities; precision and accuracy activities; team sports; social events; group challenges; activities related to the surroundings; artistic expression; creative handicrafts; board games, learning activities; polyvalent activities and shows; scientific activities and technology-based activities!<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n I’ll be the first to tell you that vacationing with kids is no walk in the park, but seeking out places that they encourage + welcome kids has been game changing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kids are grouped by ages: Jack was too young, but they let him go play when we stayed there, Jonah + Rigg were in the same class, which we loved!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n On arrival at the\u00a0Star<\/span>\u00a0Camp:\u00a0<\/span><\/b>each of the kids receive a passport kit containing equipment that will enable them to live their Iberostar adventure to the fullest + identify them as a member of their group. Once they have finished their activities, the younger children in the\u00a0Monkeys<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0Dolphins<\/b>\u00a0groups will stamp the \u2018countries\u2019 they have visited (identifying the various intelligences or aptitudes) on their very own passport, while the older children in the\u00a0Eagles<\/b>\u00a0group will receive colored bracelets for the various tasks (and intelligences) they complete.<\/p>\n
