Book NowFDR, Franklyn D Resort Review
A favorite for families with very young children, this relaxed resort goes a step beyond the usual supervised kids' programs, assigning you a professional caregiver who will assist you throughout your stay. Kids can take part in a supervised club, but a nanny also assists with in-room help from washing out bathing suits to supervising naps. Guests enjoy spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom suites. Children under six stay and eat free when staying in a room with their parents.

FDR is perfect for families with small kids. My three kids, 2,5 and 6 had the perfect vacation. The nanny service is the gem of this resort. They knew exactly how to cater to the kids and we felt completely at ease leaving our kids in ther hands.
The rooms are big and spacious and have enough space for a large family. The food was delicious, esp. in the Jamaican Restaurant,I'd encourgae anyone to try. I was kind of hesitant leaving my kids alone with the nanny while we went went to dinner at the adults only restaurant but when we came back the kids were all over her!
Trust me, FDR really has the family vacation thing down pat! We'll be seeing them in the summer. Definitely recommend families to try this resort!
