Okay, so you are already a month into winter, and you still have two or three more months of this to face. How are you going to get through it? Why not take a mid-winter break and head off to a warmer climate? If time and budget allow, then this is a great to recharge the batteries, ready for a fresh assault on the cold winter months ahead. Read on for some tips on how to choose the best winter vacation for you.
First off, you need to decide how long you can get away and how much travel you want to do. Since most of the U.S. is cold in winter you'll have to go south to find warm weather. If you only have a few days then it makes sense to keep your winter trip close to home since you don't want to spend a large part of your holiday on a plane.
Consider visiting southern Florida which has loads of options and tropical weather throughout the winter. Miami is fantastic for visiting the beach, soaking up the sun and enjoying the nightlife of South Beach. If you want a slower pace and fewer crowds, consider the Florida Keys. Key West is a quaint city full of bed and breakfasts with plenty to do for the entire family including water sports and nightlife.
Want to stay away from the crowds? If so then don't look at the more popular east coast resorts like Miami and Fort Lauderdale, and look on the west coast at places like Sarasota, Siesta Key, Naples, Fort Myers and Tampa All of thes locations enjoy all year round sunshine. Do make sure you book early if any of these are the destination of your choice, during the winter months, Siesta Key rentals and accommodation in Naples, for example, get fully booked very quickly.
You'll need a passport and the flights are more expensive but it is well worth it. The Dominican Republic is know for its inexpensive all inclusive resorts; included in the packages is accommodation, food, transfers and water sports.
If you have more time and money then consider taking a winter vacation in the Southern Hemisphere which is summer during the U.S.' winter. Rio de Janeiro has the world famous beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana with Sugar Loaf as a rugged mountain backdrop. Since Rio is a large city, it boasts five star hotels, fine dining and many nightlife options.
Malaysia has many white sand beaches and islands with accommodations ranging from simple bungalows to lavish resorts. Thailand is another country brimming with ancient sights and gorgeous beaches and its people are known for their hospitality.
