Warm Weather Holiday Destination Ideas

It hasn’t gotten very cold (yet) at my location but it will – and probably soon!

I’ve spent about an equal “50-50″ in warm or cold locations for the Christmas holiday. While you can’t argue with scenic snowflakes on Christmas Eve, a Christmas Day or two spent wearing shorts or a bathing suit isn’t half bad!

Here are some great ideas for a warm weather destination for your Christmas holiday…

The Hyatt Regency Scottsdale Resort and Spa at Gainey Ranch is near the edge of Tonto National Forest, in Scottsdale, Arizona.

This luxury desert resort, looking out over the majestic McDowell Mountains, offers a stylish modern-urban design, with dark tranquil colors, and a cool atmosphere. Step out to your balcony through sliding glass doors, or relax in the comfort of your climate controlled room on a hot day, enjoying the modern amenities of your desert oasis. With business services, children’s services, and a fitness center, you can put your mind at ease and your work behind you!

The Round Hill Hotel and Villas in Montego Bay, Jamaica is a restored 18th-century plantation home on stunning Round Hill Bay in Jamaica, and is a celebrated retreat that promises indulgent relaxation.

Decorated by designer Ralph Lauren in his signature beach style, the resort is a haven of privacy and style. Golden sandy beaches, a profusion of lush gardens, a world class spa and the turquoise blue of the calm Caribbean Sea conspire to create a tropical paradise.

The spectacular St. James’s Club Resort & Villas offer a paradise of white sandy beaches and coral reefs on the Caribbean island of Antigua.

Perched on a secluded 100 acre peninsula, minutes from English Harbor, Nelson’s Dockyard, and Shirley Heights, your family is destined to love the eternal list of leisurely and invigorating activities at your doorstep.

Aloha and Mele Kalikimaka!

Book your warm weather Christmas at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa.

Pamper yourself with a trip to the Spa Moana, tee off at the stunning and lush 18-hole Ka’anapali Golf Course, or splash with the kids at the water playground and pool. Head to the beach to kayak and surf in the waves, or take a fun filled adventure to Molokini for a day of snorkeling.

Visit Haleakala Volcanoes National Park to watch the sunrise, (you won’t believe how incredible this is!) hike through mountain trails, or view it all from high above in a helicopter tour. Return to the resort for dinner at Umalu, where modern Hawaiian fare is stylishly served poolside, or take advantage of the romantic private oceanside dining option.

All resorts listed here are part of LuxuryLink.com Family Getaway Packages – multiple nights, lots of activities, and fantastic destinations for you and your family!

Luxury and savings – you don’t even need a holiday for that!
