During the winter months, finding a beach vacation



spot can be a little difficult. It doesn't have



to be, which is where this article will really come



in handy. Below, you'll find some resorts that



offer a unique twist to your winter beach vacation.





1. Molokai Ranch and Lodge



On a white sand shore on the tiny Hawaiian island of



Molokai, guests will stay in comfortable yet unique



tents. Each double unit canvas bungalow sits on



wooden platforms, offers queen size beds in one



unit, twin beds in the other, solar powered lights,



and a private bathroom with hot water showers.





The Molokai Ranch and Lodge offers over 54,000



acres, including seaside cliffs with very lush



valleys. The outdoor activities here include sea



kayaking, cultural hikes, mountain biking, and



horseback rides. For the kids, the lodge offers



nature walks, horse stables, tidal pools and



Hawaiian arts and crafts.





2. Grand Wailea Resort and Spa of Hawaii



Long ago, a big swimming pool was enough to make



guests happy. Now days, resorts compete in water



activities such as lagoons, waterfalls, water



slides, and even lazy rivers.





The Grand Wailea Resort offers several attractions,



such as the 4,580 square foot Hibiscus pool,



and the 25,700 square foot Canyon Activity pool



which is great for families.

exhibit lagoons that house more than 50,000



sea animals.

Over the last several years, the Dominion



Republic has been working very hard to establish



itself as a destination for families, with many



all inclusives being built. This location has



all the perks of a tropical resort plus stand



out features that include kids programs, and



other attractions that make Club Med Punta Cana



one of the most unique beach vacation spots in



the entire world.





5. Virgin Islands



The US Virgin Islands National Park is a very



unique vacation spot with white sandy beaches, and



lodging in comfortable tent cottages.





As with the Molokai Ranch, guest cottages are built



on platforms and designed to be both attractive



and comfortable. Each one has a sleeping area,



bed linen, towels, kitchen utensils, stove, ice



cooler, and even a private deck.





Water sports for the area include kayaking, wind



surfing, snorkeling, and scuba diving. There is



also an outdoor restaurant and a food store for



those who want to cook from the privacy of their
