Top Tips: Beach Vacations For Winter
During the cold winter months, finding the perfect beach vacation spot can be a little more difficult than the endless opportunities available in summer. You will find some resorts that offer a unique twist to your winter beach vacation from our list below.
- Molokai Ranch and Lodge
On a white sand shore on the small but unforgetable Hawaiian island of Molokai, guests stay in comfortable yet unique tents. Each double unit canvas bungalow sits on wooden platforms, offering queen size beds in one unit, twin beds in another, a private bathroom with hot water showers, and solar powered lights.
The Molokai Ranch and Lodge sits on over 54,000 acres, including breathtaking seaside cliffs overlooking lush valleys. Outdoor activities here include mountain biking, sea kayaking, horseback riding, and cultural hikes. The kids will enjoy the nature walks, horse stables, tidal pools and Hawaiian arts and crafts offered by the Lodge.
- Grand Wailea Resort and Spa of Hawaii
While a big swimming pool was enough to make guests happy long ago, nowadays resorts compete in water activities such as waterfalls, lagoons, lazy rivers, and water slides.
Grand Wailea boasts several attractions, including their 4,580 square foot Hibiscus pool, as well as the 25,700 square foot Canyon Activity pool just perfect for families.
- Atlantis Resort of the Bahamas
If you're looking for "amazing water fun," the unique Atlantis Resort and Spa on Paradise Island in the Bahamas may be just for you. As well as an incredible beach, the Atlantis has 11 swimming pools, lazy river rides, and Mayan Temple water slides. The Atlantis also includes an amazing marine habitat, with exhibit lagoons which house over 49,000 sea creatures.
- Club Med Punta Cana
The Dominican Republic has been working very hard over the last several years to establish itself as a family destination. With many all-inclusives being built, you'll find endless opportunities for fun. This location has all the perks of a tropical resort plus stand out features that include kids programs, and other attractions which make Club Med Punta Cana one of the more unique beach vacation destinations in the world.
- Virgin Islands
The US Virgin Islands National Park is a unique vacation spot with white sandy beaches, and lodging in comfortable tent cottages. Similar to the Molokai Ranch, guests stay in cottages built on platforms and designed to be both comfortable and attractive. Each guest cottage has a sleeping area, towels, bed linen, stove, kitchen utensils, ice cooler, as well as a private deck.
You'll find plenty of water sports in the area including windsurfing, kayaking, scuba diving, surfing, and snorkeling. There is an outdoor restaurant and a food store for families who want to cook in the privacy of their guest room.
