This time of the year is usually an exciting time for families. Spring rolls into summer, and the weeks start to wind down until the kids are out of school for summer break. Parents begin planning out the coming months and how they are going to keep the little ones busy.

Some families choose to utilize summer school, and others sign up for various camps and activities to keep the kids busy during their time off. There are also several parents who take time off themselves and plan family vacations.

Sometimes a vacation means packing up the car and heading a few hours away to stay in a cabin or flying to another state to visit with distant relatives. Other times families look into traveling someplace that's sure to be sunny and warm-the Caribbean islands.

Jamaica, a lush, tropical island located in the Caribbean, is a great place for vacation this summer, and Palladium Hotel Group has two family-friendly resorts available to stay at on the island. Both properties are located in Lucea, a coastal town about 45 minutes from Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay.

The Grand Palladium Jamaica Resort & Spa has 537 rooms, and the Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton Resort & Spa has 512. The resorts have exchange privileges, so between the two, guests can enjoy access to several restaurants and bars, pools, activities, a spa and much more.

Either one of these resorts is an excellent choice for families with children ranging in age. Not only is there the Black and White Teen Club for teenagers ages 13-18 and the Mini Club for children ages four to 12, but there is also a Baby Club for the tiny visitors ages one to three. The kids have access to water slides as well.

In addition to catering to the younger guests, Grand Palladium Jamaica and Grand Palladium Lady Hamilton have adults-only areas including pools and suites. The Zentropia Spa & Wellness center is also available for adults to find total relaxation. At the spa, guests can relax in a jacuzzi, sauna or steam bath or indulge in a treatment.

All guests can enjoy activities throughout their stay including windsurfing, snorkeling and tennis. Visitors can choose to learn something new together as a family or get involved in one of their favorite outdoor activities. Either way, they'll be making memories that will last a lifetime.

After a day of fun, families can enjoy delicious cuisine and evening entertainment. The adults in the group may choose to have another cocktail or two in one of the 17 bars available in the area and maybe spend time at the Boogie Woogie Disco.

All this and more can be found with the Palladium Hotel Group on the stunning island of Jamaica.
