My daughter is 11 and I was wondering if there are other kids her age going. She is beyond the sesame street characters, but would enjoy the water sports and other activities.

The Turks resort has a more extensive kids program and the partnership with Sesame Place, so there are likely to be more attraction for the younger set, but the watersports and the beaches are pretty equivalent. The average age of our kids is 7-14 ono all of our trips but there will certainly be those over and under. The deposits are refundable till July 1 and $200 will hold it for you. Most of our bookings will come in iun the next month or so now that the holidays are over, taxes are paid, and thoughts can turn to summer vacatiosn Stephanie–both will have a lot of children on them.

We do have special events for our group so the kids will have a chance to be together playing and also for dining at night if they want. Beaches has a terrific kids program for all ages and a spacial partnership with Sesame Place--so there are characters all around.

Most schools return to school the week of August 24th. Texas and Florida return a lot earlier than that. The reason for the price drop after our week is due to their even lower occupancy rates--Beaches is a family resort and with the kids in school--less people willing to travel. Plus it is getting into the more active part of hurricane season. Last year, we were a Saturday to Saturday trip, and this year we switched it to Sunday to Sunday because there was a rate difference between the two, so the resort is in their "shoulder" season. And finally, we have negotiated a lower deposit requirement of $200 per booking (not per person) to hold the space. If you have any questions, feel free to email me at john at singleparenttravel.net or give me a call at 888-277-8543 John Hi Dominick–
