Marari Beach Resort Kerala For A Vacation
The Marari Beach Resort in Kerala is in a superb, if a touch isolated location on a totally unspoiled beach about an hour south of Cochin. The hotel has been deliberately built to be eco friendly, has wonderful facilities and gorgeous self-contained villas with open-air bathrooms.
If you can, stay in a pool garden villa as this had a walled patio for the pool and sunbeds with lovely plants and creepers against the walls. This gave the pool villas real privacy that they other villas did not...
Long Bay Beach Resort And Villas Tortola
We booked at the Long Bay Beach resort a beachfront room which had a beautiful high vaulted wooden ceiling, a very large king sized bed, and a full length sliding glass door, so we had just the most beautiful views, and there was a cosy sun deck for us to sit on. The air conditioning worked well and we werent frozen as we have been in other places, and I cant complain at all about how well we were looked after.
We woke every morning to the sound of the sea, opening the curtains, and seeing...
Visiting Shakespeare s Birthplace
Stratford-Upon-Avon must be one of the most visited places on the tourist trail in England. In the summer it can literally be awash with people, such is the popularity of Shakespeares birthplace.
Of course it is little wonder owing to the aura that surrounds William Shakespeare, that this pilgrimage, because of course that is what it is should occur almost on a daily basis.
What people need to understand is that the attractiveness of Stratford Upon-Avon is not a recent occurrence. It was...
The Hill Club Nuwara Eliya Sri Lanka
If you have a vacation in Sri Lanka, then a trip to Nuwara Eliya which is where the British used to retreat to, for coolness in the summer heat a century ago is essential, , to stay at The Hill Club, because I guarantee you wont find another place like it anywhere in the world.
Nuwara Eliya is over 5000 feet above sea level and visiting there is like going back in time, in fact just getting there is an adventure in itself.
We hired a vehicle, plus driver from our beach side hotel, and...
A Superb Small Beachfront Hotel on Aruba
Ever thought of Aruba in the Dutch Antilles for your vacation. You need to check out the Golden Tulip Bucuti Beach Resort
Looking for a small hotel, looking for a beachfront vacation, then you need to hear about Aruba, one of the most southerly islands in the Caribbean, part of the Dutch Antilles, and one of the three islands that makes up the ABC Islands. The ABC Islands consists of Aruba, Curacao, and Bonaire, and they are located just north of the coast of Venezeula in South America, and...
Kowloon Shangri La Hotel
When you stay in the room with a harbour view, then you get a harbour view with a vengeance. I had forgotten how beautiful it all was, until at ten o'clock at night the baggage porter pressed the automatic button to open the curtains, and there the full majesty of night time Hong Kong island Wanchai district was exposed to us.
Wakening in the morning the first thing we did was to sit up in bed as the curtains slowly opened, and we saw the busy harbour, boats, junks, and sampans rushing here...
Indian Ocean Lodge Seychelles
The Indian Ocean Lodge is situated on the west coast of Praslin, and the hotel stands on a prime site on Grand Anse, the island's longest beach. The hotel nestles amongst mature Takamaka trees and colourful tropical plants just a few steps from the sea. The 32 rooms are arranged in eight separate units.
Whilst we loved the Indian Ocean Lodge Seychelles on the island of Praslin, you have to be careful when you visit. From May until December because of the prevailing wind you may find the...
Mauritius For a Great Family Vacation Hotel
Mauritius is a great island for a family vacation, and there are plenty of fantastic hotels but check out the Beau Rivage for a great family vacation
Mauritius, and great family vacation are synonymous, always providing you have the money. The Beau Rivage Hotel is a very good example of what is meant by that. This is a very beautiful hotel, almost better than the photographs which isnt something that can be said very often.
The whole place is quite beautiful, the beach is as good as it...
Indian Ocean Beach Club South Of Mombasa Could Be Right For You
The Indian Ocean Beach Club is located on a powder white sand beach south of Mombasa, and surrounded by swaying coconut palm groves, and old baobabs.
It isnt the kind of hotel that is all too popular nowadays, all singing all dancing, disco, high rise, bland, huge, the could be anywhere type of place.
The Indian Ocean Beach Club has been built to attract honeymooners, and romantics, and to recreate a sadly bygone age where service and opulence reigned.
To an extent, they have succeeded,...
Hemingways At Watamu Malindi
Hemingways is a 74 room resort Hotel overlooking the stunning beach of Watamu Marine Park, 20 miles south of Malindi and 60 miles north of Mombasa.
The hotel has a distinctive exclusive, and sophisticated feel about it and is definitely for the more discerning traveller seeking quality, and peace and quiet. You wont find much entertainment in the evenings apart from live lounge music in the restaurant twice a week and a snake charmer on one occasion in the bar.
This is a privately owned...
