STAY

Whether you're on a multi-generational trip or a break with older or younger children, Barbados offers a stress-free escape that will make even the moodiest teen want to put their phone down.

For beautiful beachfront escapes, check out resorts such as Sea Breeze Beach House and O2 Beach Club & Spa, both on the Caribbean island's south coast.

Sea Breeze caters more for younger kids while O2 is aimed at teens, although the younger ones will still enjoy it.

The staff at the hotels go above and beyond, gently encouraging children who want to join in games of beach cricket or football.

Both hotels have adults-only pools for those much-needed moments away.
