Real Families' Best Vacations Ever (Wishing We Were There Now...)

Where to Go When You Want to Hit the Road With the Family

Taking a trip with the family can have its highs (amazing food, alone time with your husband, baby's first swim in the ocean) and lows (overtired kids, forgetting the diapers, the meltdown in the piazza). But by the time it’s all over, chances are you’ve made some pretty fantastic memories. We asked moms and dads to tell us about their most memorable family vacation -- ready to plan your trip?

Myrtle Beach
"Myrtle Beach is a great place for families: lots of things for small children. The beach is flat and relatively calm (good for kids). There are also plenty of things to do on those rainy days like Ripley's Aquarium and Pirate's Voyage!"
