Is a family snowboard vacation on your bucket list? Snowboarding is a wonderful sport for the entire family. If you’re new to snowboarding or this is the first time you’re planning a trip for the entire family, take these recommendations from the travel experts to ensure your family snowboard vacation is a huge success with wonderful memories for every member of the family.

The first step is to secure your dates and determine your budget. While family snowboard vacations are not inexpensive, there are several hidden tips to keep a reign on the budget.

One of the most cost effective options is to book a private home or condo directly from the owners. Hotel tabs can add up and hotel rooms have little space for a family to spread out. One of the advantages of renting a private home is that most meals can take place in the home instead of pricey slope side restaurants. After a long day of outdoor activities, a large living room and nearby kitchen will be a great break for the entire family.

Another option for vacation accommodations is to book a suite at a hotel that offers larger rooms and a kitchen area. Take advantage of the awesome deals offered by Groupon coupons and check out the great family accommodations offered by Extended Stay America. With so many locations, more likely than not, there is a location near the snowboard resort you’ve selected.

Snowboard vacations are not limited to snowboarding! From tubing to ice skating, there’s something for every member of the family. For beginning snowboarders, there’s no better investment to ensure a fun filled week of snowboarding than to enroll in at least a half day snowboard course.

The experienced instructors will teach the basics for control and navigating the slopes. Even the most experienced snowboarders can benefit from lessons as well. Consider purchasing snowboard passes for half days during your stay. Snowboarding is a rigorous sport and few can manage eight to ten hour days on the slopes. Have a grand time making life long memories on your family snowboard vacations!
