To help you get inspired, we put together our list of the best all inclusive resorts for families in the tropics that offer everything from fun-filled water parks to exciting kids clubs and sprawling suites

Channel your inner pirate at Sunset Beach Resort & Waterpark

Ahoy matey! Channel your inner Captain Jack Sparrow at Sunset Beach Resort Spa & Waterpark’s Pirates Paradise in Montego Bay. The fun-filled water park features several water slides, a sunken shipwreck and a winding lazy river. Kids can join in Adventure Day every Tuesday, where they’ll search for lost treasure and take part in a Pirate Parade through the resort grounds. Make sure to test out Blackbeard’s Brig Escape Room, where you’ll have one hour to complete your mission, solve the hidden clues and puzzles and escape from the room – a perfect family bonding experience! Club Mongoose for kids and Crows Nest for teens also offer a range of supervised activities with extended hours, so the parents can enjoy a romantic date night at one of the resort restaurants while the kids are making new friends.

Head to the sprawling on-site water park at Royalton Splash Punta Cana

Stay just steps from the action at Royalton Splash Punta Cana Resort & Spa. The family-friendly property is located just a short shuttle ride from the beach and is steps away from one of the largest on-site resort water parks in the Caribbean! Test out the monster slides including the Space Bowl and Black Hole or body surf in the wave pool, with a splash pad and mini slides for younger kids. The fun doesn’t stop at the water park, though – head to the on-site arcade with VR Gaming and try out the Oculus Quest headset (for guests aged eight and older). There are a variety of other free activities available that everyone will love like cooking classes, pool Olympics and water sports at the nearby beach area.
