The breathtaking mountains of Wyoming 

Treating your family to a luxury vacation this year?  Looking for a luxury vacation destination designed to entertain kids and adults?  Sometimes it can be hard to find a luxury vacation suitable for the whole family. Here are three vacation destinations to consider for your family’s next luxury vacation: 

 

Jackson Hole, Wyoming

 

Jackson Hole, Wyoming is one of the playgrounds of the stars.  Amongst others who take their luxury vacation here include Uma Thurmond, Harrison Ford, and Christina Ricci.  During your luxury vacation to Jackson Hole, treat your family to one of the popular hotels there such as the Four Seasons in the Teton Village.  The Four Seasons features activities such as skiing, scuba diving, separate pools just for kids and play areas for families with children.  A breathtakingly beautiful location like Jackson Hole also offers fun, outdoor activities such as the Chuckwagon Dinner & Western Music Show which includes comic entertainment, reenactments and dinner.

Naples, Florida

 

One luxury vacation destination on the Gulf of Mexico is Naples, Florida which once boasted to have the richest community in all America.  When in Naples, consider staying at the La Playa Beach and Golf Resort.  As the name of this luxury resort suggests, it has both a beautiful beach and a gorgeous golf course.  Naples is part of the “Paradise Coast” area of Florida, and as such it sports tropical wildlife such as dolphins, manatees, and a great variety of birds.  Take the kids to the Conservancy of Southwest Florida, where they can go one of many nature walks such as “CSI – Critter Scene Investigation.”  You can also take an Everglades safari with Everglades Excursions.

 


The bright lights of Las Vegas

 

Las Vegas, Nevada

 

Las Vegas, Nevada is much more than gambling, showgirls, and smoky casinos. Vegas is a true luxury vacation spot.  The city of Las Vegas has worked hard to make itself family-friendly over the past several years and its many themed hotels are as much a luxury vacation destination as anywhere else in America.  A few luxury vacation hotels to consider which are perfect for families include:  The Mirage which sports a dolphin habitat; Circus Circus with its indoor amusement park; and New York New York Hotel & Casino which even includes Coney Island-style roller coasters plus a replica of the Statue of Liberty.

 

These are just three luxury vacation spots that your family might enjoy without having to leave the US.  Each region in the US has its share of luxury vacation spots that are far enough from home that they feel like you’re getting away from it all, but close enough that you don’t have to spend too much time to get there.
