R FAMILY VACATIONS ANNOUNCE FIRST EVER LAND BASED ALL-INCLUSIVE RESORT VACATION!


July 10-17, 2010 at Club Med Ixtapa Pacific, Mexico
R Family Vacations will also continue their trademark cruises, teaming up with Norwegian Cruise Lines for three summer cruise groups in 2010 including their first ever European cruise

For the past six years, R Family Vacations has established itself as the premier GLBT family brand and first gay cruise company that caters to both the gay and lesbian community. With nine cruises, they have shared travel memories with over 15,000 family members – gay and lesbian parents, straight parents, children, singles, friends, couples and grandparents. Always striving for new adventures to share, R Family Vacations is proud to announce their first ever land based resort vacation. R Family Vacations will take over the entire Club Med Ixtapa Pacific resort in breathtaking Ixtapa, Mexico from July 10th to July 17th, 2010. The all inclusive beach vacation offers Club Med Ixtapa Pacific’s endless list of activities including water sports, flying trapeze, rock wall climbing, tennis, arts and crafts and more while R Family will bring their signature brand of entertainment and activities geared towards both families and singles. They will continue to partner with Family Equality Council who will be providing the family programming, educational workshops and political discussions.

“We are excited to continue to offer new destinations and different types of vacation options to the entire LGBT community while including their friends and families.  Our guests have been asking for land-based programs and cruises to Europe and Hawaii and this year we have them all!” says Gregg Kaminsky, co-founder of R Family Vacations.

In Summer 2010, R Family Vacations will continue to offer their signature cruise vacations, setting up three group trips aboard the Norwegian Cruise Line to Hawaii, the Caribbean and, for the first time in R Family Vacation history, Europe. While they will not be chartering entire ships like with previous expeditions, R Family Vacations will offer 100-400 travelling guests with private dining and entertainment experiences as well as some of the “r” signature team and entertainers, in addition to Norwegian Cruises’ offerings. R Family Vacations will be one of the first aboard the brand new Norwegian Epic which features Blue Man Group, Cirque Dreams and Nickelodeon.
