Best Family Resorts in Bahamas for Elementary Kids (Ages 5-10) (2026)
The Bahamas is a 90-minute flight from Miami and delivers the Caribbean's biggest family water-park resort (Atlantis) alongside calmer, less-overwhelming options on Cable Beach and Paradise Island. This is the resort sweet spot — kids are old enough for the water park, the kids' club, and the character meet-and-greet, but young enough to be genuinely thrilled by all of it.
