Spring break is the perfect time for families to get away from the stress and pressure of work and school life and enjoy quality time together, relaxing at the beach with no worries. And there’s no better place to do that than in Orange Beach, AL. Our charming Gulf Coast home offers something for everyone, from beautiful sandy beaches to exciting family-friendly activities and attractions. Here are just a few reasons why Orange Beach and Caribe Resort make the perfect spot for families during spring break:

The soft white sand stretches for miles, bracketed between sandy dunes and the crashing waves of the Gulf, providing plenty of space to stretch out and soak up the sun.

Whether you’re looking to build sandcastles, play beach volleyball, or simply relax and enjoy the scenery, the beach is the perfect place to do it. Just don’t forget the sunscreen! In addition to its natural beauty, Orange Beach also offers a range of waterfront restaurants, like Cobalt, where you can grab a bite to eat or a refreshing drink. Lifeguards are also on duty at many of the beaches during busy seasons, ensuring your safety while you enjoy your day in the sun.
One of the best things about staying with us is that you’ll have easy access to the beach, with many of the area’s best beaches just a short drive away or even a complimentary ride on our Trolley.
