Were you a summer camp kid? If so, you’ll remember the thrill of first arriving, unpacking, and joining friends – old and new – for the excitement of an entire week (or more!) away from home. Why give that up just because you became an adult? Whether summer camp was a part of your childhood or you always wished it was, these “summer camp for families” travel deals are sure to bring out the kid in you.
Stay & Play at Half Moon
Jamaica in the summer is probably as far away from your mosquito-ridden cabin in the woods experience as you can get, but it’s a pretty good place to experience the fun of a camp away from home. Half Moon offers something for every generation and plenty of opportunities for creating family memories. The resort is known for its children’s summer camp, including Camp Half Moon for guests aged 4 to 12. You can purchase by the day, or enroll your child in a program for the entire stay. The camp offers active fun including archery, martial arts, reef fishing and horseback riding. There is plenty for parents to get up to too while the kids are occupied, from a day of golf or tennis to parasailing and fishing. Half Moon is a luxury resort hotel located 20 minutes outside of Montego Bay.
Sandy Pines Glamping
If camping isn’t for you (and I’ll be honest, I’ve barely warmed up to it myself), maybe you want to try glamping – camping with a little extra style and luxury. Sandy Pines Campground in Kennebunkport Maine is opening the door (or flap) on 12 one-of-a-kind safari-style glamping tents. You can rent or buy these glamping tents during your stay there. This seaside camping destination has resort-level amenities.
