It is estimated that more than two-thirds of Americans - 147 million people - will receive tax refunds this year. Most consumers have gotten a head start on their tax returns, many having already received refunds. Furthermore, as the average tax refund has gone up over 6 percent this year to over $2,200, more families are willing to indulge in exciting vacations. In fact, early estimates show that nearly 20 percent of all consumers (nearly 20 million adults) will devote some or all of their tax refund towards a vacation. While paying down debt and devoting money to savings are also popular uses for tax refunds, nothing can match the thrill of an exotic vacation.
Even if you don't receive over $2,200 on your tax return, it is still possible to plan an exotic family vacation. There are plenty of destinations throughout the Caribbean and Mexico known for providing action-packed family vacations and incredibly affordable weekend getaways for couples. Furthermore, as those receiving tax refunds will be planning summer family vacations, the Caribbean and Mexico boast some of the best travel deals around for upcoming months.
If you are considering an international destination for your family vacation, you can't beat the Caribbean or Mexico. Your family will be greeted by an inviting atmosphere and friendly locals wherever you go.
Most Caribbean and Latin American resorts also recognize families as their primary interest, so you will also find plenty of activities for all ages. For the sake of tax refunds, it should also be noted that the Caribbean and Latin America are among the most affordable international destinations for American families and couples alike. Regardless of how sizable your tax refund might be, you can get the most fun for your money south of the border.
To cater to those spending their tax refunds on family vacations, Marriott has developed a unique discount program for its Mexican and Caribbean resorts. The "1040 Family Travel" package offers extra incentives for millions of American families looking to use some of their tax returns for luxury getaways. With overall savings approaching 40 percent, the "1040 Travel Package" helps your family get the most out of your tax refunds.
With the incentive program, five-night stays at a selection of Caribbean and Mexican resorts start under $800 for families. The packages are also designed to offer considerable savings on meals, with complementary breakfast for both parents and children. Your kids can also take advantage of unique children's programs and activities - from educational workshops to in-room pizza parties, movies and nightly milk and cookie turndown service.
With the money you save on accommodations, your family can participate in plenty of activities wherever you go. In Cancun alone your family can scuba dive, take tours of ancient Mayan ruins, ride jet-skis, visit some of the best restaurants in the region or swim with the dolphins. Most of these activities can also be arranged directly through your resort, so your family doesn't have to worry about finding shuttles or waiting in lines.
The Marriott "1040 Family Travel" Package is being offered at nine different beachfront resorts throughout the Caribbean and Mexico. Along with the luxurious rooms you expect, many of these resorts also feature top-notch spas, championship golf courses, exciting casinos and much more. The resorts available for the "1040 Family Travel"
Package include:
- JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa
- CasaMagna Marriott Cancun Resort
- Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino

- Frenchman's Reef & Morning Star Marriott Beach Resort, St. Thomas
- CasaMagna Marriott Puerto Vallarta Resort & Spa
- CuraƧao Marriott Beach Resort & Emerald Casino
- St. Kitts Marriott Resort & The Royal Beach Casino

There has never been a better time to travel with your family to the Caribbean or Mexico. To coincide with the tax refund season, the booking window for this special travel program lasts until May 31. Your family can then visit any of these exotic locations until August 31.
