HEAVENLY RESORTS
FOR ANY AGE OR LIFESTYLE

Not long ago if someone mentioned resorts, I might have jumped to the conclusion that they were discussing the merits or characteristics of an elegant chateau or ancient castle that was perhaps located on the French Riviera. I have recently come to be aware of the fact that there are as many different kinds of luxurious lodges of this type that specialize in every kind of interest, hobby or sports activity under the sun. If gourmet food is your passion, then there is undoubtedly a special vacation spot where you can take daily, scheduled culinary instruction under the tutelage of a master chef. If you like to frolic about in a clothing optional environment with lots of romantic atmosphere, never doubt that there are more than a few nudist vacation destinations that are competing for your business as well.

AGE
There are lodges for families traveling with kids or adults only establishments where the rules are that there are absolutely no kids allowed. Some consider a person over thirteen years of age to be an adult, but before you make your reservations and make a large non-refundable deposit be sure that the atmosphere and activities are suitable for young adults. Teenage girls and boys might not want to hang out with a bunch of couples or where there are no kids their age.

On the other hand, older men and women might want to book time in a place that appeals to older couples or perhaps make reservations at the hot spot for swinging, senior citizens or at a place that offers senior discounts to singles of a certain age.

ACTIVITIES
Golf, tennis, scuba diving and water sports are mainstream activities that even budget travel spots offer or have access to facilities that offer them, but what about more obscure pastimes? In the quest to get their share of the tourism dollar, many locations have become specialty destinations. There are hotels or lodges that specialize in:

• Hedonism
• Nudist or Clothing optional resorts
• Couples
• Families
• Spa or Fitness
• Child free vacations
• All inclusive resorts

Don’t take it to mean that it’s not cool to head out to that Heavenly ski club or to the bays and beaches that we’ve always loved. Just know that your vacation options extend far beyond anything you might have imagined in your wildest dreams.
