Travelling with a baby or toddler? Azul Beach Resort Negril provides a wide range of baby amenities so you don't have to pack the whole house with you. Whether you need bottle warmers and sterilizers, baby monitors, strollers or even pureed baby food delivered to your room — just ask!

For everyone else in the family, there's Azulitos Playhouse, a great family pool and excellent family rooms. Choose between a two-bedroom Family Suite or two-level Family Loft Suite (which is right next to the Azulitos Kids' Club!).

This gorgeous BIPOC-owned eco-boutique hotel is ideal for families with older kids or children who prefer a quieter setting. With only 10 rooms on the property, your whole family will enjoy a calm beach with no crowds, extra-personal service and fantastic healthy food featuring Jamaican ingredients.

For the most space, book your relaxing getaway in The Pad, which comes with a private patio, master bedroom and separate living room (with an extra bed and baby cot available if you need it). For the best view, you can't beat the Superior Room, where you can watch the Caribbean Sea from your covered veranda.

Just keep in mind that this is not one of the Jamaica's all-inclusive family resorts. If you'd prefer to pay one flat price for your family vacations, check out the other properties on this list.

Can you tell me how to get — how to get to Beaches Negril? Your kiddos can meet their favourite Sesame Street^® characters at this recently renovated all-inclusive family resort. And if they've already outgrown Elmo, there's more than enough to do across the resort.

Have a blast at Pirates Island Waterpark, leave your teens at the Xbox lounge, hop on the hydrobikes and Hobie cats, or play a game of bocce ball, basketball and more.

Families are spoilt for choice in the way of accommodations here, too. From the Grand Luxe connecting family rooms to the three-bedroom Walkout Grand Butler Family Suite, there's a perfect oasis for your crew at the Beaches Negril resort.

Like the Beaches in Negril (and all other Beaches resorts), Beaches Ocho Rios has staff and certified nannies who have completed the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) training and Autism Certification so families with special needs can travel with peace of mind.

Unique to the Ocho Rios location is an all-inclusive golf program made just for young ones! Of course, if you're more interested in forty winks than yelling “fore!” at the links, you'll love this family-friendly resort's Caribbean Luxury Family-Sized rooms and suites (with connecting rooms and rollaway beds available if you need them).

You can beat the heat at Ocean Coral Spring's ice cream shop, ride a tube down the lazy river, bowl a strike, catch a flick and go snorkelling — all in a day's play!

This beachfront all-inclusive resort boasts indoor and outdoor entertainment for all ages and Junior Suite Daisy Family rooms that come with your own beach umbrellas and family amenities.

Grab some snorkelling gear and check out the tropical fish. Put on your game face for the ultimate pool volleyball match. Show off your most embarrassing dance moves (“Mom, make it stop!”) at a fun dance class. However you spend your quality time together, the BIPOC-owned SeaGarden Beach Resort will make your vacation one worth remembering.

This family-friendly resort's two-bedroom suites, great entertainment and activities, and private beach club are perfect for getting quality time together and making lifelong family memories.

Never fear, picky eaters are welcome here! Between the kid-approved dining options, the Aquafun water park, cool shenanigans at Star Camp and spacious family suites (with your own video games!), you'd have to be trying really hard not to have a blast at Iberostar Rose Hall.

Not just family-friendly but ocean-friendly too, you'll love the on-site coral nursery and responsibly sourced seafood policy.

With no fewer than four beaches to enjoy, Grand Palladium Jamaica creates an awesome setting for your whole family. Splash in the waves or pick up some water sports equipment to take your beach day up a notch.

Parents, you can check out the adults-only pool while your mini-me has tons of fun at the baby club, mini club or teen club. For family time together, your connecting suite with private terraces and two full bathrooms offers the perfect place to relax.

Choose between family and luxury? In Jamaica? Never! All-In Luxury^® is the name of the game at Royalton White Sands Resort (and spoiler alert, everyone wins this game). The attention to detail is hard to beat, and the atmosphere manages to be elegant and kid-friendly at the same time.

We love the Family Whirlpool suites; they come with a king-sized bed, a pull-out double bed and a set of bunk beds (plus two separate living rooms and a private balcony). It's the perfect place to rest up before a full day of playing at the splash pad, water park, lazy river, Clubhouse and Hangout Teen Lounge, and daily entertainment.

You'll also want to check out Royalton White Sands Montego Bay and Royalton Negril Resort & Spa!

Hilton Rose Hall sets the scene perfectly for a fun and relaxing family trip. Enjoy the uncrowded private beach, activities created just for kids and teens, and an on-site water park complete with a lazy river and 280-foot water slide.

With eight different kinds of family suites ranging from comfortable resort-view guest rooms to a 2,200-square-foot Prime Minister Suite, it's easy to find exactly the right space for you and your kids.

How long can you last surfing on the FlowRider^® wave simulator? How many cannonballs can you do at the pool? How many Xbox games can you try in one day? How many times will you come back for more?

Moon Palace offers a fun luxury vacation for the whole fam-jam, including six-person suites and connecting guest rooms designed with families in mind.
