Not sure what kids club is, but some sort of place to drop your kids all day.

cancun westin lagunamar has a good one, can leave 9-5 and set aside what food should be given (if you have an older smart kid would be best to ensure they dont eat anything else).

We have 2 weeks of vacation AUGUST 19- SEP1 with a 3 year old, 9 yr old and 10 yr old. My wife is still afraid of zika, so carribean/latin america etc are out. Past 2 years we went to west coast and did SF/PCH/LA/SanDiego plus a week in Phoenix (thanks much to the wonder of DDF). Trying to figure out what to do this year with whole family that wont be a waste. assume decent amount of all types of major point categories.  (would go to israel by default, but we will be there for 3 weeks in april, and possibly for succos)

Was considering Venice (really want to check out the new JW Marriott there esp with the currently scrumpcious point rate, plus book shabbos in the jewish ghetto for 4 nights with Citi Prestige) with maybe rome, but dont think its worth it to go around venice with my kids who will only really appreciate the pools and boat rides.

Was considering Hawaii (never been, would leave 3 yr old at kids club for bigger hikes), but the long transaction cost kind of upsets me, spending a whole day flying there (nonstop flights leave NY 8-10am) seems ridic with little kids.

Any other good options for a relaxing resort area the kids will enjoy with still some intrigue/preferably a place where we can explore and also get good kosher food?

Was looking today for the same
There isn't anything in Europe that's really warm now, the best you will find is around 60F
Canary islands
Crete
Gibraltar

Seattle, Vancouver ?

As long as you are off the strip, Vegas can be great with kids.  It has good pools, Kids clubs, kosher restaurants and can do some hikes and Hoover Dam if you wanted. Look into the timeshare properties of the chains as those hotels don't have casinos and often the "basic" room is a 1brm apt.

two three weeks

A Safari is beautiful but with 2-3 weeks either of 2 things will happen, the kids will start getting bored or you will be bleeding money (or both).
Thailand is definitely priced well for a family vacation and enough there and in the relative vicinity to occupy you.
Europe is great assuming you dont plan on only choosing one location. And I personally would take out LHR. Maybe something like ATH, VCE,PRG. Thats a healthy combo of beaches, beauty, sights, history and Judaism.

True, but you can split with other locations like Cape Town, etc.

I should have mentioned that one week out of the two or three will probably be spent cruising to the continent chosen for vacation (either asia, Africa or Europe) so on the ground would prob be less than two weeks. is abu dhabi any interesting for kids/teenagers as an addition?

We actually just came back from Dubai last week. They have a ton of stuff to do there and can be a very fun place for your age group for a week. They have indoor skiing, Ferrari world, the largest indoor amusement park in the world, Burj Khalifa (tallest building in the world), and a lot activities to do in the desert.
