Summer vacation is just not the same without a trip to the beach. Fourth of July is just a few days away, which means that we are less than two months away from the start of the new school year (less than that if your children are enrolled in a year-round school). So what are you waiting for? Pack up the kids, get in a little R&R and enjoy the sun, sand and surf.
Here are a few incredible travel deals to sunny locales where you can get your tan on without burning a hole in your budget.
Honolulu, Hawaii
World-famous Waikiki Beach is world famous for a reason. It offers some of the finest views of the Pacific Ocean, not to mention having some of the finest waves for novice surfers. You can get your dose of Hawaii-style fun this summer for next to nothing with this deal. Expedia is offering 4-nights at a Waikiki hotel plus roundtrip air from Los Angeles at the height of summer (July 19–July 23) for just $643. You’ll stay at Aqua Aloha Beach Hotel, just two blocks from the famous sands of Waikiki Beach. Kids stay free. Rooms come with high-speed Internet access, and flat-screen TVs. Plus you get complimentary daily breakfast, newspapers, and wireless Internet access poolside and in the lobby.
San Diego, California
It doesn’t get much better than this. California’s Coronado Beach is one of the most family-friendly beach destinations in the world. For those of you who have never visited, Coronado Beach is a seaside resort seven miles southeast of San Diego. The beach there is amazing… miles of clean stretches of sand, tide pools and parks. It’s a great place to let your children dig and swim. From August 26th through August 30th the Edwardian-style Glorietta Bay Inn, is offering discounted room rates for as low as $149 a night. The inn is a refurbished mansion, which features rooms with Old World décor.
Miami, Florida
Miami’s South Beach is consistently voted as one of the top beach cities in the United States. The area offers something for everyone—hip restaurants, world class shopping and, of course, miles and miles of pristine beaches. Orbitz is currently offering a last-minute air-land bargain to South Beach, priced at just $393. The price includes airfare from Atlanta and three nights at Blue Moon Hotel, a three-star property a block away from the ocean. The hotel grounds are dotted with courtyards that feature fountains, waterfalls, and swimming pools.
