'Parents' survey ranks Franklyn D. Resort No. 2

Parents magazine revealed the exclusive findings from its 10 Best Family Beach Resorts survey and the Franklyn D. Resort and Spa in Runaway Bay, Jamaica, ranks as number two!

Parents asked family travel agents and tourism boards to nominate resorts in the United States and the Caribbean that are right on the beach but light on the credit card. From more than 75 contenders, Parents narrowed the field by evaluating the range of family activities, the quality and uniqueness of the supervised children's programme, the size and quality of the room, safety factors such as lifeguards, fun features for parents, the overall value for your money, and much more.

"The best family vacation destinations are both fun for kids and relaxing for adults," says Dana Points, editor-in-chief of Parents. "The beach resorts on our new list are affordable, yet they offer perks that moms and dads will remember from their pre-kid days. These resorts grant everyone's vacation wishes - from kiddie pools to swim-up bars.

"Ensuring that our guests have a wonderful and fun-filled family vacation, while pampering and catering to them with traditional Jamaican warmth and hospitality, comes naturally to our staff, and they are thrilled and humbled to be ranked number two in the Top 10 Best Family Beach Resorts of the Parents magazine survey," remarked Tina Yap, marketing director of the Franklyn D. Resort.
