holiday resort
Leisure travel spot
A holiday resort is a destination—typically a hotel, complex, or community—designed primarily for vacationers, offering lodging along with recreational amenities like pools, beaches, restaurants, and organized activities.
The term is more common in British English; Americans typically say vacation resort or simply resort: We booked a week at a holiday resort in the Canaries.
