beach resorts

Seaside vacation destinations

Beach resorts are vacation destinations built along coastlines, offering lodging, amenities, and activities centered on ocean access.

They range from budget hotels to luxury compounds with pools, restaurants, and spas.

The term suggests a self-contained experience where guests can stay, eat, and recreate without leaving the property: We spent a week at an all-inclusive beach resort in Cancún.
