We spent a lot of time close to the beach and pool, but we took two all-day drives:
We swam in waterfalls - What age wouldn't love to swim in a pool at the base of a waterfall?
They loved the volcanoes & the cloud forest.
We saw monkeys in the trees on the side of the road - What age kid wouldn't love that?
Like all kids they are going to take away memories that are linked to their age and what they think is great might be different from you.
MKEbound - My daughters swam in a waterfall in El Yunque in PR. They loved it.
Everyone - the hotel that we choose will definitely have its own beach and pool complex. That part is a must.
Monkeys in their natural environs would be a huge treat. That would definitely be a highlight. The more animals the better.
Thanks for your feedback!!
