Op - no they can play in the water/sand for hours.

Then with those ages I would just find a nice condo or resort on the beach in south Florida. Why over complicate it?

Skiing is going to be more money than that if you travel somewhere with snow.

Vail is projected to close 4/19/26
Keystone is projected to close 4/5/26 (they are one of the earliest to open so they have an earlier closing date)
Breck projecting to close early May but it is all snow pack dependent

We have skied as late as 4/7 with plenty of snow at Breck. We will be there 3/28-4/2 this year and are not worried about it.

that budget will be a stretch for five people in Colorado

Fyi we did breck a couple of years ago and it was fun but so expensive for not very great lodging. People on here always say it’s cheaper to go to Switzerland.

We are going to our house in France.

I’d avoid Mexico, Puerto Rico, and most of Caribbean. And Europe. And south and Central America, even southern South American - you may not be able to get there/back.
Virgin Islands will be in a sweet spot with ferries and passing between USA and Denmark-

If your spring break is in April, and the kids are beach people, I'd definitely check sargassum reports in the Caribbean and Mexico. I think April is when it really starts ramping up.

Western Mexico should be OK, but that will be a longer flight (6+ hours). They have a ton of great kid-friendly resorts there, though. One & Only Mandarina looks awesome. There is Grand Velas for an AI option, as well.

Virgin Islands

Orlando

Are they the type who are content building sand castles and jumping waves or they need constant entertainment and external activities? Need more info.

We haven’t booked anything yet - late I know. 5 people - two adults and kids ages 6, 9 and 11. Budget around $10-$15k. International or domestic. Kids prefer warm weather. Suggestions?
