Family-Friendly Villas: Getaway the Right Way
For the kiddos
Little ones will love features like bunk rooms built for sleepovers, playgrounds and splash zones, fully equipped game rooms, and easy access to nearby kids’ clubs and activities. Many villas also include family-focused extras like movie rooms, sports courts, and child-friendly pools—keeping every age entertained from morning to night.
These homes aren’t just suitable for kids, they’re designed with them in mind, leaving more time for you to relax while they’re entertained in safety and comfort (IYKYK).
1 - Serena 4, Dominican Republic
Perfect for families with kids as it offers a playground onsite and tons of outdoor green space, all while being a short walk to the beach
2 - Sea Breeze (formerly Amazing Grace), Turks and Caicos
Beautiful home, just finished a major revamp and is one of the premiere villas in Caribbean – 8 bdr villa on a massive beachfront estate with tons of amenities such as water sports, beach volleyball, tennis, pickle ball, kid’s club, kid’s playground, bocce court, basketball court, 9 bicycles, media room and more!
3 - Villa Riviera, St. Martin
The Rugged West may be romanticized, but we think with good reason. The beauty of the mountain landscapes are something to behold, usually framed perfectly through your Wyoming luxury villa's oversized picture windows.
Family reunions made easy
For multigenerational stays, many of our villas offer spacious layouts with private guest houses or separate suites, so grandparents can enjoy some well-earned privacy while still being part of every moment. Enjoy step-free or mobility-friendly design, if you need it, while shared spaces like large pools, outdoor dining areas, fire pits, and home theaters create the perfect setting to come together—because the best vacations are the ones shared.
1 - Casa Familia, Punta Mita
Casa Familia boasts an impressive 20,000 square feet of space with a dedicated staff of 11. Guests have access to a secluded beach, two vehicles, an gym, spa, pickleball and basketball courts, golf cart access, and four bicycles.
2 - Indigo (formerly Greatview), Jamaica
A villa we have all stayed at, this fully staffed villa has access to Half Moon Resort with complimentary golf, van & driver included and is very family-friendly.
3 - Canoe Cove, Jamaica
One of our favorite properties in Jamaica with some great amenities on-site such as tennis, putting green and kayaks, all with an incredible staff. And the villa offers wheelchair access as well.
“Sheldon James was truly incredible. They planned a very special family reunion trip to Jamaica and took care of every detail- and then some! Everything was seamless and stress free, and they truly went above and beyond to make the experience memorable for our whole family (20 people, including 9 kids!). We felt so well taken care of from start to finish.”
