Chances are you just got home from a relaxing spring break, or perhaps your social feeds have been flooded with photos of friends lounging on beaches and exploring new cities, triggering that familiar travel envy. Either way, with your suitcases barely unpacked, summer vacation might already be on your mind. As a travel advisor, I’m here with some important advice: while summer planning is pressing, now is also the perfect time to look ahead to winter break and even next spring break!
Summer Travel: The Clock is Ticking
If you’re hoping for that perfect summer family getaway, the reality is that inventory is already limited and prices are climbing. Popular family-friendly resorts are booking quickly, especially those with the amenities that make family travel truly enjoyable:
- Engaging kids clubs that give parents a break while children have supervised fun
- Family suites with separate sleeping areas (a game-changer for bedtime)
- Age-appropriate activities that everyone can enjoy
- Pool complexes with features for all ages
The most sought-after properties – those with the right balance of relaxation for parents and excitement for kids – often book solid months in advance.
Looking Beyond Summer: The Strategic Traveler’s Advantage
The savviest families are already planning their winter break and next spring break travels. By booking these trips now, you’ll benefit from:
- Better availability at top family-friendly properties
- Early booking discounts
- Your choice of ideal room configurations
- More flight options at reasonable prices
Remember that holiday periods like winter break see extraordinary demand, with many families returning to favorite resorts year after year, meaning inventory disappears quickly.
