I love to travel, but I hate looking for a hotel to stay at. There are so many things to consider: price, location, amenities and service. With winter right around the corner, I've started doing my research for a great escape. In my quest for the ultimate resort, I have come across a lot of options. Now I just have to pick the perfect one!Resorts cover the globe, from the Gold Coast to the Bahamas, and each one has something special to offer. Sandals all-inclusive resorts are perfect for a luxurious vacation for two, but don't plan on bringing along the whole family. Though they are number one on our top searched list, Sandals resorts don't allow children. Mom and dad can still enjoy a romantic get away at one of their many locations, like St. Lucia, Jamaica and the Bahamas.
Even though you and the family won't be able to soak up the sun at a Sandals beach resort, there is plenty of sand and surf at other family resorts in Jamaica and the Caribbean. For a vacation you will always remember, check out Atlantis Resort, number three on our list. The Atlantis in the Bahamas is only a short flight away and is the perfect escape for a fun family vacation. The Nassau resort features a beautiful marine habitat with an extraordinary dolphin cay, which is sure to amaze both parents and children.

I wish that I could get away to resorts like that more often but with the demands of my job and the shaky economy I find myself doing things at home that I would have liked to do at a resort. . I used to love to get the whole spa treatment often at resorts but I hva e a substitute that I can do at home and the results are just as good as the resorts do. My daughter found a place online(http://tinyurl.com/homespa ) that has a home spa treatment package and she got me one for Mother's Day. It was so good that I now buy it for myself and try to indulge myself every 10 days or so. In contains the Clay Essentials Face & Body Masque and Eye & Lip Masque along with a relaxation and meditation CD. You have to try this heavenly experience. http://tinyurl.com/homespa

Last year when I was in Brazil I was told about the incredible health benefits of the acai berry. When I heard about a weight loss product that not only helped you lose weight but had the antioxidant properties of the acai berry I had to try it. I was a little reluctant to order it over the internet but they offered a 15 day supply of free samples and then a money back guarantee so I figured that it was worth a try. I'm sure glad that I did because I lost the 15 pounds that I put on over the past 10 years and now I look and feel great. I got it at http://www.theworldsgreatestsupplement.com/

I used to love going on cruise vacations and did several all-inclusives down in Negril Jamaica. I always had a great time. The problem for me was that I would eat like a piggy. Given the whole nature of the all inclusive and my mentality that I was on vacation why not (and that I wanted to get my moneys worth...) I would pig out the whole time and come back 5-7 pounds heavier.
I recently went to club med http://www.clubmed.com It was an all inclusive as far as food was concerned... you had to pay for hard liquor, but the food was healthy and there was a lot of great water sports at the one I went to. They have different resort geared toward different activities. One of my friends just came back from a golf vacation there.
I recently lost 20 pounds and did to come back from a vacation heavier. I came back from Club Med about a month ago and had a great time and didn't gain an ounce! I ate 3 great meals a day, had a ball and walked around a lot. I did wear my smartsole anti-cellulite insoles (heard about them on this search) which tones muscles, increases circulation and causes you to burn more calories with every step. http://www.smartsole.com Oh yeah, and I also met someone! I found a code for 10% off. It was HAPPY10

I remember dreading my honeymoon, even though we were going to a very fancy resort. About 9 months before I knew I was going to get married, I was having a problem with thinning hair. That is devastating to a young woman. My top priority was covering up my thinning and bald areas. I found out that I had alopecia, which my doctor said was caused by a hormonal imbalance. Luckily I found a product for women called Provillus at http://HAIRLOSSTREATMENT2.TK that consisted of both a dietary supplement that helped me by blocking DHT, and topical solution that contains the only ingredient approved by the FDA to re-grow hair. Now that I have a full head of hair I can try any hairdo I want. I feel like a new woman.

Although Sandels resorts does not allow children, they do have an all-inclusive resort know as Beaches that does include children. Breaches Resorts are owned and operated by Sandels Resorts, and follow the same "pay one price for all" idea.

I can't believe that the Secrets or Excellence resorts aren't a part of this list. Talk about the ultimate when it comes to beauty and romance. They have Sandals beat by a long shot. And how about Iberostar resorts? They are a very popular Spanish-owned company in the Caribbean and South America. The grounds are lush and tropical with all types of wildlife and beautiful flowers and trees. Service is usually top-notch... And again they far surpass the Palacace resorts. And let's not forget the Westin chains. Oh my goodness, you have not had a good night's sleep til you sleep in their Heavnely Bed. Westin can do no wrong to me.

where are the Super Clubs far superior to sandals resorts.. have stayed at both.. sandals is quite sedentary.. very quiet... admittedly very relaxing.. but ...oh well.. if you are going to spend money go to grand lidos or hedonisms... they are soooo much fun.. you'll never forget your vacations.. emphasis on hedonism resorts.. our favorite is in Negril Jamaica.. have been on close to 50 week long vacations and well its tough to get us away from negril anymore.. we always find ourselves comparing everything to hedonism. one time we even booked sandals negril and were so bored we spent the rest of the vacation at hedonism.. paid for 2 vacations but it was worth changing.. time is so precious

Hi:
I love visitng romantic resorts. I've been to Sandals in St. Lucia and recently went to a fabulous all inclusive for adults that has delicious gourmet food on the beach in Mexico at Secrets Capri Riveria Cancun. It was very romantic and I just wrote about my experience on my website www.RomancingTheTable.com. I also find it very romantic to take a Destination Cooking Class and I was the host of the #1 NY Times About.com culinary travel DVD which was filmed in Romantic Santorini, Greece. Check the beautiful trailer out on my website as well. It makes a great gift for a foodie or traveler since it includes my romantic travel to Greece.
