Living in paradise is awesome, but sometimes a trip to the beach with the family can be more trouble than it’s worth. If you don’t get there early, especially on weekends, the best sites are gone. And if you are seeking a quiet space to relax, you might be out of luck.

What’s the alternative? Flamboyan Resort suggests annual membership at the resort’s Pool & Tennis Club. What a perfect way for you and the family to enjoy outdoor fun in the sun — and get plenty of healthy exercise, too.

Members are invited to swim in either of two unique pools. Head for the peaceful setting at the lower level garden pool or enjoy the waterfall pool on the upper level. Stretch out on lounge chairs, use the Wifi, relax in the hot tub. You also get a key to private restrooms with showers.

Added bonuses include that whenever you enjoy a meal at RooT 42 Bar & Grill — or place an order at Northside Grind — you get 15-percent discounts on food and soft drinks. 

Access to the lighted tennis courts is included, as well. All you need to do is reserve a court in advance.

Have you been thinking of treating the family to a change of scenery ‘Staycation?’ You’re in luck. Club members receive 25-percent discounts on hotel rooms, based on availability.
