Explorer’s Kids Club

dscf0986So if you read my blog you know I LOVE the Explorer’s Kids Club at Dreams Resorts & Spas and Now Resorts & Spas. This last trip to Now Jade Riviera Cancun was no exception. My son had so much fun when he was at the club. As a matter of fact, several times I went to pick him up, and he didn’t want to come!

Each day we would get up early and hit the beach or pool and have lunch together, and by about 2 or 3 each day my son would ask to go to the kids club, he was done with the grown ups. There was lots of kids and he had a great time at the Explorer’s Kids Club.

This was his most favorite day at the kids club:

2:00 was pirate face painting, 3:00 pirate party, 4:00 was water balloon fight on the beach, 5:00 a jump in the pool. 6:00 was a private kids drum show then 7:00 was a private dinner for the kids. Then the “night-time” activity was a pajama party and pillow fight. He had so much fun he is still talking about it!

The Explorer’s Kids Clubs are a great way to have a family vacation combined with grown up time for drinks at the pool bar, a nice dinner or show.

capriStaying at a Secrets Resort & Spa, a Dreams Resort & Spa or a Now Resort & Spa? Check to see if your resort offers the new “Night Out Dine Around” Package. I just read the details from the Vice President of Sales & Marketing for AMResorts, and I want to pass on the details.

The new “Night Out Dine Around” Package is an exciting program that provides Apple Vacationers, staying at one of the participating resorts, a chance to enjoy dinner and an evening of entertainment at a neighboring resort within the same brand!

This is especially a great feature if you are staying for 7 nights and you want additional dining options, or you just want to experience a dinner outside your host resort for a night. Continue reading

Explorer’s Club at Now Jade

Need a vacation for you…. but you still really want to take the kids? Then an easy vacation choice is Dreams Resorts & Spas or Now Resorts & Spas. Why? Explorer’s Club! I LOVE taking my son away on vacation with me and having some great family time, but some fun time for me is also VERY nice. This is where the Explorer’s Club comes in. We experienced it before at Dreams, and this week at NOW. The Explorer’s Club is for children 3–12 years old. It’s not babysitting, they are actual experiences for kids.

A few days of our vacation we were able to take our son to the Explorer’s Club to meet new friends from around the world, and even one from right up the road from where we live. I honestly can’t say enough good things about the staff at the Explorer‘s Club. They are wonderful. They were genuinely friendly and enjoyed the time with my son as much as he did with them. They are uniformed professionals, but at the same time within seconds he loved them and wanted to keep going back.

The first night he went they had a beach party. Continue reading
