Beach Vacations For Winter

During the winter months, finding a beach vacation

spot can be a little difficult.  It doesn't have

to be, which is where this article will really come

in handy.  Below, you'll find some resorts that

offer a unique twist to your winter beach vacation.

1.  Molokai Ranch and Lodge

On a white sand shore on the tiny Hawaiian island of

Molokai, guests will stay in comfortable yet unique

tents.  Each double unit canvas bungalow sits on 

wooden platforms, offers queen size beds in one 

unit, twin beds in the other, solar powered lights,

and a private bathroom with hot water showers.

The Molokai Ranch and Lodge offers over 54,000

acres, including seaside cliffs with very lush

valleys.  The outdoor activities here include sea

kayaking, cultural hikes, mountain biking, and

horseback rides.  For the kids, the lodge offers

nature walks, horse stables, tidal pools and 

Hawaiian arts and crafts.

2.  Grand Wailea Resort and Spa of Hawaii

Long ago, a big swimming pool was enough to make

guests happy.  Now days, resorts compete in water

activities such as lagoons, waterfalls, water 

slides, and even lazy rivers.

The Grand Wailea Resort offers several attractions,

such as the 4,580 square foot Hibiscus pool, 

and the 25,700 square foot Canyon Activity pool

which is great for families.  

3.  Atlantis Resort of the Bahamas

In the amazing water fun department is the unique

Atlantis Resort and Spa on Paradise Island in

the Bahamas.  Along with the beach, the Atlantis

has eleven swimming pools, Mayan Temple water

slides, and lazy river rides.  The Atlantis

also boasts an amazing marine habitat, with

exhibit lagoons that house more than 50,000

sea animals.

4.  Club Med Punta Cana

Over the last several years, the Dominion 

Republic has been working very hard to establish

itself as a destination for families, with many

all inclusives being built.  This location has

all the perks of a tropical resort plus stand

out features that include kids programs, and 

other attractions that make Club Med Punta Cana

one of the most unique beach vacation spots in

the entire world.

5.  Virgin Islands

The US Virgin Islands National Park is a very 

unique vacation spot with white sandy beaches, and

lodging in comfortable tent cottages.

As with the Molokai Ranch, guest cottages are built

on platforms and designed to be both attractive

and comfortable.  Each one has a sleeping area,

bed linen, towels, kitchen utensils, stove, ice

cooler, and even a private deck.

Water sports for the area include kayaking, wind

surfing, snorkeling, and scuba diving.  There is 

also an outdoor restaurant and a food store for

those who want to cook from the privacy of their

own room.
