Private Islands and Private Island Resorts aren’t just for adventurers, entrepreneur’s and reclusive celebrities, they are also for families. Often when people think of family friendly private islands they think of the private islands visited by cruise lines. In fact their are a number of Private Island Resorts around the world that cater to young families.

One of my favorites is El Conquistador Resort and Spa in Puerto Rico.  Much of the resort is situated on the coastal mainland, but the resort also includes a 100 acre private island. Located in Fajardo Puerto Rico this Caribbean resort (not all inclusive) the resort features a water park and a kids club. This resort (re)opened in 2008 after a $120M renovation, and a new water park named for Puerto Rico’s Coqui tree frog.

This 100-acre private island, has an exquisite beach, scuba and fishing excursions, and activities such as waverunning, windsurfing, sailing, horse-riding. For beach-lounger types, waiters come around and serve your drinks; there’s a cafe and bar too.
