A golf trip may not seem like the ideal place for a family vacation — unless the whole family loves to golf. While that isn’t always the case, everyone deserves to enjoy what they love when they get to take time away from life. Luckily, there are some amazing destinations offering the best of both worlds — great family getaways along with world-class golfing.
Spots like Grand Solmar Pacific Dunes in Los Cabos have figured out how to turn this hobby into an anchor for a great family vacation, with activities fit for all the different generations of the family — including golfers as young as 5 years old. While golfers enjoy an 18-hole Greg Norman routed green, the rest of the family can spend time doing other activities like whale watching or swimming in the saltwater lagoon pool. That pool is big enough to kayak in and comes complete with water slides, so there are plenty of ways to spend the day in the water.
The resort offers all-day programing for kids; culinary experiences for teens and adults; and plenty of games like pickleball, volleyball and ping pong. And if non-golfing members of the family are interested in learning a new hobby, lessons and equipment are available.
Spots like this offer a great way for multigenerational families to enjoy time together without running the risk of only one person having a great time. This way everyone gets to do something they love, which makes the time together even more meaningful and the trip that much more memorable.

There are the obvious things you can’t take on a plane, like weapons and liquids more than 3.4 ounces, but some things that seem totally innocent could lead to unnecessary delays and missed flights.
