Juicy Tidbits National Geographic Traveler says..."A 140-acre isthmus resort with water galore: calm lagoon, Caribbean bay, pounding Atlantic. Ocean waves do the entertaining just beyond the simply furnished suites (some TV-free) with private verandas, big windows, outdoor garden showers. Captain a Boston Whaler for island hopping, bike on trails lined by wild nutmeg and frangipani. Island-born chef infuses the menu with flavorsome Caribbean attitude. 31 suites." -From National Geographic Traveler
Conde Nast Traveler says..."Our experience surpassed our wildest expectations." This stone resort accessible only by boat or helicopter means "no hustle and bustle." At the hilltop restaurant, the "food and desserts are to die for!" "Service is impeccable." From rooms in white and turquoise, with bright Caribbean artwork and furnished verandas, the views of the Atlantic are "simply breathtaking." " -From Conde Nast Traveler

Its 130 rock art sites and caves that allow you to see what the Bushmen have painted over the ages make this national heritage site one of the largest open air art galleries in the world. You will be staying in an oasis and haven offering all the modern comforts in the middle of open plains and staggering rock formations. As well as the beautiful spa- pampering beauty treatments and the chance to bathe in rock pools and waterfalls- an ecosystem of 7500 hectares of wild and preserved biodiversity is an invitation to try a green safari for a glimpse of rare birds- indigenous wildlife- incredible flowers and fabulous starry night skies. An absolute must for nature-lovers.
Juicy Tidbits Travel + Leisure says..."THE SETTING 18,000 acres in the foothills of the Cedar Mountains.GREEN FACTOR When Bill McAdam purchased the vast tract of wilderness in 1991, the property was a virtual wasteland of overgrazed veld. Today, the Kloof blooms with 800 tree and plant species, down to rarities like the Clanwilliam cedar. Threatened wildlife has come thundering back, too, including red hartebeests, black wildebeests, bontebok, aardwolves, 150 rare birds, and one of the largest private herds of endangered Cape mountain zebras in the world. More than 130 ancient rock-art sites dating back 10,000 years are also safeguarded in their natural environment. After a day in the wild, it's nice to know that the 16-room Relais & Chteaux lodge has hand-sewn bed linens." -From Travel + Leisure
Conde Nast Traveler says..."Riding mountain bikes past zebras is the right way to start the day at this rehabilitated farmstead. Light-filled contemporary rooms have outdoor showers. Meals at Makana draw from native fynbos herbs and local meat. Affable staff "offer great insight into the native culture and historya they elevate the spirit." The 18,500-acre reserve is home to more than 130 tribal rock art sites." -From Conde Nast Traveler

Children of all ages are welcome year round, with no additional fees outside Dec 18th 2009 thru Jan 4th, 2010, and Dec 18th 2010 thru Jan 4th 2011.
Juicy Tidbits Travel + Leisure says..."Located on spectacular Maundays Bay, this 179-acre Caribbean resort with its striking Moorish architecture has long been a favorite of everyone from honeymooners to Hollywood A-listers. A recent renovation freshened public spaces as well as the interiors of its 97 rooms and suites and six private pool villasaknown for their Morocco-meets-West Indies dAcor (dark-wood louvered windows and white-tiled floors paired with colorful silk pillows and arched doorways). The lodgings are spread along two miles of sugary white-sand beach, as are the three restaurants, five cabana bars (where servers dole out free snacks), a spectacular domed open-air lounge, a wine bar, and a pool." -From Travel + Leisure

Amidst larger-than-life spectacle, feel the exhilaration of elite entertainment and duty-free designer shopping. Then hide away in the Cotai Strips most intimate hotel. Lavish chinoiserie blends old-world European opulence with high-tech chic. Cuisine reflects Macaus Portuguese and Chinese heritage. And spa suites tempt with outdoor vitality pools. Thoughtful Four Seasons care promises you unrivalled comfort.
Juicy Tidbits Conde Nast Traveler says..."Just as it did in Las Vegas, the Four Seasons has opted out of having its own casino in this, the world's most popular emergent gaming capital, although high rollers do have direct access to gaming tables at the Venetian Macao and Plaza Casino next door. There are five swimming pools in the tropical grounds, surrounded by daybeds and cabaAas with televisions, surely designed to help broaden Macau's appeal to families and non-gambling sun-seekers. Gourmands will appreciate the authentic Portuguese and Macanese cuisine on offer at the generous lunch and dinner buffets at the BelcanAo restaurant. All the spacious bedrooms have state-of-the-art workstations and WiFi access and, whether you are here for work or pleasure, it's worth paying the small daily tariff to access the top-floor executive lounge with its meeting spaces, private offices, breakfasts and sunset cocktails. In the spa, where smiling attendants stand ready outside the steam room with ice-cold Fiji water and enveloping towels, therapists perform a tightly edited menu of targeted treatments for aching muscles and jet lag, as well as traditional Chinese healing.
