Ways to Escape the Holiday Madness

Resorts around the world want you to rethink spending the holidays sleeping on Aunt Lucy’s lumpy sofa bed. As incentive to get you and your family to ditch grandma’s house this season and relax in a spacious hotel room, a number of popular properties are offering amazing money-saving deals on holiday retreats, including:

Crested Butte Mountain Resort in Colorado: The family-friendly property is celebrating its 50th anniversary with half-off lifts and deeply discounted lodging. You can save even more by taking advantage of the “Friends and Family Fly Free,” which offers a free ticket for every two you purchase.

Azul Sensatori Hotel: Located just 20 minutes from sunny Cancun, Mexico, the ultra-luxe, all-inclusive property offers free connecting suites for teens if you book by November 30, 2010, and travel by December 22, 2010. The hotel also has a special treat for babies: Free use of everything from monitors to strollers. They’ll even deliver the latest Fisher-Price toys to your suite to entertain your kids while you get some much needed R and R.

Colonial Williamsburg: Travel back to 18th-century and enjoy a Christmas to remember. A three-day, two-night Christmas Bounce Package offered by the historical site will only set you back $379 for a family of four. It includes lodging, breakfast and tickets to Colonial Williamsburg Historic Area and Busch Gardens’ Christmas Town.

Cheyenne Mountain Resort in Colorado Springs, Colorado: The kid-friendly resort is offering rooms for under $100 a night. In addition, you can take the Pikes Peak Cog Railway alongside Santa and Mrs. Claus if you travel before Christmas Eve.

Sandestin Beach and Golf Resort and Spa in Florida: The sun-sational property is offering amazing holiday discounts on condos and villas. Plus, from now until Christmas the resort is gifting its youngest guests with a personal visit and story from Santa.
