good vacation spot for seniors...

[1elephant]

my parents and the rest of the 55+ crowd from our wedding want to go on an anniversary vacation...they're looking at all-inclusives in mexico or possibly caribbean, or even a cruise...BUT there are 12 of them, and they don't want to have to deal with being able to get dinner reservations 1x/week. at dreams, they had the ability to eat wherever, whenever. a big group would sometimes have to wait, but it was better than not being able to eat anywhere but the buffet.

 

any suggestions?? doesn't have to be a be a vacation spot designated for seniors, either...these kids know how to party

hmm I bet they would love a cruise, I have heard awesome things about Alaskan Cruises

i agree, i think it would be perfect - but i'm not sure if they'd be willing to spend the $...

they make it difficult !

[Christine]

oh I think cruises are really affordable considering all you get on them, but if they want something that leaves from the east coast do a cruise through the caribbean or eastern mexico.

Cruises are great and you can find some good deals!

what about dreams cabo?...short airfare, nice weather, flat so not many steps...lots of golfing...we took steves grandmother who is in her 80's and just had knee surgery.

 

or dreams cancun or tulum?

I do agree with everyone else who mentioned cruising (and not just b/c they're my specialty...wink wink). Something for all ages. Eat whenever and wherever you want. Do everything or do nothing at all, and still have a great time.

 

I see you're in NJ. Me too. We've got ships right up the turnpike in Bayonne, or over in Manhattan or Brooklyn. So no airfare involved which can be a plus for some.

Lauren,

ok a cruise is out...one of the women won't do water (and she's afraid of bridges)

 

i did some research and came across secrets (also owned by dreams)...i think some of them won't want to do dreams b/c they've already done it...but different dreams, different experience!

Secrets is the adults only version. No kiddies running around.

I loved every Secrets I've ever been to. They all get good reviews.
