Hi all,
I'm hoping that you might be able to offer some advice. I've been trying to plan a dive/family trip and have been looking on the boards for older posts, but thought I'd write my own and ask some specific questions.
Before I get to the Curacao questions....I'm open to suggestions for other locations in the Caribbean/Central America. (saying that this trip is planned for November so I figured that being further south in somewhere like Curacao would mean that the water would likely be warmer...a must for my wife!).
We want great diving, but also really would like somewhat decent beaches for the kids who are 2 and 4 years old.
We need a place that can offer 2 bedrooms.
We definitely need somewhere that has a kids club so we can dive while the kids are watched (in the mornings).
I'm not on a backpacker budget, but at the same time, I can't afford $300+ a night!
I was looking at Blue Bay, but then saw that some guests were complaining about really rude service and also that they got a nasty smell from an oil refinery up wind.
So...any suggestions for hotel/resort that has a kitchen, 2 bedrooms, beach, and a kids club?
Or suggestions of other spots that might not be too tricky to get to (we are in Colorado so the connections to may places are not great anyway).
FYI - Been to Coz, Roatan, Turks & Caicos, Tobago, Belize, so was hoping for somewhere a bit different that isn't too outrageous in price.
Cheers!
Ollie
