Beach/Island holiday with children

Year end is the monsoon season in South China Sea. Hence, it is advisable to to Phuket, Langkawi or Penang instead of Tioman, Rendang and KK.

Hi Mimifrog,

Heyya hmsg, can't get anymore family friendly than @ Ramada

Resort Karon Beach, Phuket..... unless if one is willing to spend
more money on the higher end resorts lah.

Our kiddies had a blast in our princess themed suites and have
requested to go back again to visit the amazing people at the
Siam Adventure Club there...

Check their website @ http://www.ramadaphuket.com/index.php

Yes.
[/quote]Hai, me & hubby is planning to bring my 2 kids to Phuket early December this year. Just to get some advise is it suitable to visit Phuket during December & did anyone visit JW Marriot Mai Kao Beach Resort & need comment on this Resort. Thanks

My friend stayed at this resort during the Jun school holiday and had a fantastic time there. The Villa is huge!

I was invited to stay at this resort for 3-4 days too (the offer valid till mid Dec). My hubby & I still cant decide whether to go or not as we are required to attend a 60-90mins presentation in order to enjoy the free stay.

- is the resort booking schedules flexible? eg can only go during certain months.
- i got their takashimaya $200 or $300 vouchers last time, but have to seat around 1hour plus

fish are fun around the ankles and feet but not when you are snorkling… can get pretty scary…
