Vistana Beach Club is located in Jensen Beach, on Florida’s Treasure Coast, and was awarded a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence. Stop by your condo to drop off your bags and get changed for the pool – don’t forget the sunblock. Go for a swim in the outdoor pool or lounge poolside and catch up on the celebrity gossip in the latest issue of People magazine while the kids splash around in the children’s pool. When it’s time for lunch, fire up the bbq grills for a family cookout. Have the kids carry hot dogs, sides, and burgers while the grownups handle the plates, utensils, and condiments. After lunch, hit the tennis courts to get your Serena Williams on or visit the activity center. The resort’s activity center offers a variety of arts and crafts such as decorating a beach bag, making stained glass art, towel origami, tie-dying t-shirts, and painting wine glasses. Or play a game of Texas hold ‘em, bingo, or poker keno.

Air-conditioned two-bedroom villas sleep six guests. Bring the family along on the short drive to the local Publix to stock your full kitchen. Back in your villa, recruit the little ones to help bake your famous sugar cookies (and bring cookie cutters from home so they can make them into fun shapes). Don’t worry if the kids end up covered in sugar and flour; the resort has an on-site laundry facility. HDTVs and Blu-Ray players offer in-suite entertainment. Have the kids pack their favorite movies from home for family movie night. Pop some popcorn and call everyone into the living room. First kid on the couch gets to choose the movie.

The golfers in your party will want to pack their clubs and check out the Martin County Golf Course. It features two eighteen-hole courses as well as a driving range and putting and chipping greens. Take a family field trip to The Children’s Museum of the Treasure Coast for a day of exploring. Little ones will love the interactive exhibits where they can use their imagination while they learn. At Our Town Market, children can pretend to shop for dairy, meat, produce and dry goods at a mini supermarket. The fire truck, where kids can pretend to be a firefighter, is sure to be a big hit. Kids can also pretend to be a doctor, mechanic, or a vet.
