With the official start of December under way, parties and preparing for the season usually trump travel, unless you've planned ahead and are taking advantage of the November and mid-December Travel Sweet Spot. If you're looking for a quick break or dreaming of a sand-between-your-toes getaway in the New Year, here are some options:
December Travel Treats
Vancouver - Fairmont Hotel Vancouver
[trip style = urban]
There's something about grand, historical, city hotels that's so inviting and cozy in winter. This holiday season why not sneak away for a night, right in the centre of town? Park your car and walk to the city's best shopping and swanky restaurants. Rates from $129.
Antigua - Sugar Ridge Resort
[trip style = sun + beach]
If melting away holiday stress in the warmth of the Caribbean sun is something that appeals to you, check out this new and stunning resort. Nestled into a hill overlooking the crystal ocean, a deluxe room with a plunge pool starts at $160. Wow! See you there! To access this offer, you must [become a member] of Jetsetter (one of my fave private travel sale websites).
PS - I've talked about this deal more times than I can count, but if you need to do any Christmas shopping in Seattle/Bellevue and want to make it an overnighter, check out this Westin Deal. Not only have I done it, but a few people I know have indulged too.
