The beachfront Daytona Beach Regency is just steps from the Daytona Beach Boardwalk and has 24-hour security providing your family with peace of mind. Once you get settled into your condo, get changed into swimsuits, grab dive sticks and goggles and slather everyone head to toe in sunscreen. The outdoor heated pool with waterslide is sure to be a big hit with kids and grownups alike. (The indoor pool will come in handy if it rains.) Enjoy a refreshing cocktail from the poolside tiki bar or hit the beach, only steps from the pool. Hungry? Have a family cookout on the BBQ grills and let the kids assist with carrying burgers, hot dogs and side dishes. After lunch, drop the kids off in the arcade-style game room and get your cardio on at the fitness center.

Studio condos sleep two guests. Kitchenettes with a mini fridge, microwave and two-burner stove allow you to prepare the basics. One- to two-bedroom condos sleep four to six guests and have full kitchens. Stock up on groceries at Publix Supermarket, less than three miles from the resort. Let the kids get creative and make their own pizzas for lunch. Declare the pizza with the most unusual toppings the winner and the pizza artist official movie-chooser. Once they’ve chosen from the selection of movies that you brought from home, pop some popcorn and call everyone else into the living room for family movie night thanks to the Flatscreen TV with cable and DVD player. Did the kids end up with pizza sauce on their clothes? No problem, the resort has an on-site laundry facility.
