• Determine how much your family can afford to spend to vacation at a family resort. If necessary, plan your vacation several months or even a year in advance so that you will have enough money to finance an unforgettable vacation.
• Decide for how long you will vacation. You may decide to vacation at a resort that is not far from home so that you can go away for the weekend or for an extended holiday weekend. On the other hand, you and your family might be looking to go on vacation for a week or more.
• Figure out where your family would like to go on vacation. Decide whether you want to vacation somewhere in your own country or travel abroad.
• Discuss with your family members the type of family resort where you want to vacation. For example, do you want to go to a beach resort or a Disney resort? Ask yourself whether you are looking for a resort with swimming pools and golf courses or daily adventures.
• Once you know what you want in a family vacation, begin searching for your resort. Ask for recommendations from family and friends. Use the Internet to find family resort locations. You may also decide to enlist the help of a travel agency to help you identify the best resort options for your family.
