Where to vacation with 3 small kids??

Help!!<BR>I am trying to plan an early November vacation with my 3 kids- 3,6, and 7 years old. Does anyone have any suggestions?? I'd prefer somewhere on a beach and with a good kids' club to keep the young ones occupied. Or even a cruise- if I can find a good one with enough activities geared for the kids. I know everyone says that the Disney Cruise is great, but it is also very expensive (I was quoted $7500!). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Mary;<BR><BR>Check into FDR resort in Runaway Bay, Jamaica.(not Pebbles) GREAT kids spot complete with a nanny. They'll love it. Not on much of a beach, but you can walk to the public beach right next door. We'be been 3 times and never not had a wondeful time. www.fdrholidays.com<BR><BR>Good luck!<BR><BR>Paul

The Westin at Grand Cayman has a great beach, water is very crystal clear and safe for kids to swim, and they have a great kids club. My kids beg to go back. They even take the kid's on a submarine cruise , and to the turtle farm. The pool is real nice too.

Mary, which ever place you choose, make sure they are having a 'kids club'. Usually in early November most caribbean places are running at a fraction of occupancy and no children because kids are in school and suspend kids club activities until Christmas.

Beaches Turks & Caicos is geared towards families and has excellent children's programs and gorgeous beaches.

Try a cruise. I heard there are some excellent rates this fall in the Caribbean. I have booked my family with a 7 and 4 year old on the Grand Princess for CDN$2800 all inclusive except for air.(we used Aeroplan.) I would recommend either RCCL or Princess. They have excellent children programs, from 9am to 10pm. You just have to pick them up at lunch and dinner and on somedays they will have lunch and dinner with their leaders and friends. My kids loved it and you can have some down time with your spouse.
