This will be our first time to Grand Mayan, we have two children aged 12 and 13, what are the activities that we should be sure to include in our 2 week holiday. Anything to stay away from? Thanks Dave

their kids club is for very young children. There are no activities for kids. They have some games for all people but not very much.

HEY DAVE,

I AGREE THAT THE KIDS CLUB IS FOR VERY YOUNG CHILDREN. BUT THAT HAS NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH YOU OR YOUR KIDS.

WE ARE OWNERS OF 10 WEEKS AT THE GRAND AND FOR KIDS YOUR CHILDREN'S AGES, IT'S JUST TERRIFIC. WE HAVE VACATIONED THERE A NUMBER OF TIMES WITH KIDS JUST THAT AGE, AND THEY HAVE THE: LAZY RIVER...HUGE WAVE POOL...HUGE SLIDE.... IN ADDITION TO ALL THE INTERCONNECTING POOLS.

THE KIDS ARE OLD ENOUGH TO RUN AROUND THE POOLS AND ALL OF THIS ALONE. THEY CAN GO TO THE SWIM UP BARS IN THE POOLS (IF YOU ALLOW THEM TO) AND ORDER A NON-ALCOHOLIC DACQUIRI OR SLUSHI OR SODA AND DRINK IT IN THE POOL.

THERE IS THE WONDERFUL BEACH AND A RESTAURANT AT THE BEACH WHERE THEY CAN GO AND ORDER LUNCH AND HANG OUT!

ALL OF OUR KIDS LOVED IT AND DO EVERYTIME WE GO.

AND PUERTO VALLARTA HAS ALOT TO DO. SWIMMING WITH THE DOLPHINS IS 5 MINUTES AWAY AND THERE ARE 3 DIFFERENT PLACES YO DO IT. YOU CAN CHECK THEM BOTH OUT AND SEE WHICH ONE YOU LIKE BETTER. THEY ARE A LITTLE DIFFERENT. THERE ARE THE ZIP LINES IN THE JUNGLE, HORSE BACKRIDING, BOAT TRIPS TO OTHER ISLANDS, WHALE WATCHING WHICH IS A BLAST THIS TIME OF YEAR.

THE RESTAURANTS IN P.V. ARE TERRIFI C...FOR ALL OF YOU.

YOU SHOULD HAVE A FABULOUS TIME. AND THE RESORT IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. WE ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO THE NEW ONE IN LOS CABOS IN FEB WITH SOME OTHER COUPLES. WE SAW IT IN AUG AND IT IS JUST SPECTACULAR. BUT MUCH SMALLER, MORE OF A BOUTIQUE HOTEL WITH NO AMENITIES OTHER THAN THE POOL/BEACH FOR THE KIDS. WHICH I THINK IS JUST FINE TOO!

HAVE A GREAT TRIP.
