The Christie Lodge, Vail/Avon, CO

The Christie Lodge, Vail/Avon, CO

Why I like it? “Perfectly located in Colorado's beautiful Vail Valley and surrounded with the majesty of the Rocky Mountains, the views alone are magical. In the winter, you can enjoy world-class snow sports at nearby Vail or Beaver Creek Mountain Resorts, or snowmobiling, Nordic skiing and snowshoeing in the White River National Forest. Summertime in Avon invites you to picnic and fish on the shores of pristine alpine lakes, golf on nearby courses or hike, bike and horseback ride the miles of paved and dirt trails that wind through lush meadows and rugged peaks. It's all just outside your front door at The Christie Lodge.”

Woodfield Manor, Poconos, PA

Woodfield Manor, Poconos, PA

Why I like it? “When you’re here- you’re family. Outstanding staff and service will keep you coming back year after year. Rustic mountain charm of a boutique resort coupled with fine hotel comforts. Cottages with fireplaces and historic stagecoach inn. Top rated onsite restaurant; Frogtown Chophouse. Near all the best activities of the Poconos including Camelback ski area, outlet shopping mall, indoor and outdoor water parks, world class golf courses, and Mt. Airy casino.”

Myrtle Beach Resort, SC

Myrtle Beach Resort, SC

Why I like it? “Perfect beach vacation. Period. Beach front resort with an oceanfront pool, onsite tiki bar and lazy river. Amenities, Amenities, Amenities. This resort has them all. 3 outdoor and 2 indoor pools. No concrete jungle here. This resort combines the perfect amount of shade trees and landscaping to ease the heat. If you can tear yourself from your beach chair, Myrtle Beach is also the golf capital of the world.”

Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort, FL

Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort, FL

Why I like it? “This property is just steps to the sparkling, white sands of iconic Ft. Lauderdale beach. Spend lazy days parked in a chair listening to the waves lap at the shore, then stroll the beachfront promenade for easy access to restaurants, bars, and shopping. While the condos all offer kitchens the nearby nightlife and world class dining options are too good to pass up. Try the speakeasy called Stache. Did I mention the views from every room?"

Sunset Royal Beach Resort, Cancun

Sunset Royal Beach Resort, Cancun

Why I like it? “Pristine property located beach front in the Zona Tourista. I highly recommend our all-inclusive option for just $65.00 / per person per day. It includes all food and drink. It even includes room service meals or lunch served to your beach chair! This property is everything you would expect in a luxury beach vacation; sparkling pools, abundant seating, views of the spectacular turquoise blue ocean stretching out in front of you.”

Silver Lakes Resort

Silver Lake Resort, Kissimmee, FL

Why I like it? “This well-manicured property is located just outside of the Disney parks. Disney will lose its magic if you require little kids to be in the park from open till close. Our family always made a point to be onsite for park opening, return to the condo in the afternoon for a rest, a swim or some non-park food. Then return to the park in the evening for fireworks and parades. Silver Lake is perfectly positioned for a split day. The resort offers both one- and two-bedroom units.”
