Global Resorts by Jim

The county of Kent has often been called “The Garden of England,” lush with greenery and famous for its fruit orchards and fields of hops. This is where you will find Cloth Hall, a 15^th-century manor house converted into a luxury rural retreat.

You accommodations will be reminiscent of a rustic scene from a Jane Austen novel. Double rooms feature canopied four-post beds with overstuffed mattresses and airy comforters. The larger rooms have en-suite bathrooms. And thankfully, unlike the Elizabethan era, air conditioning is standard.

In the evenings, you will want to relax in the central sitting room by the great fireplace. It is the perfect spot for evening conversations or just watching the embers glow while sipping tea. All guests have access to a communal kitchen for making hot beverages and sandwiches.

A television lounge is available, too, if you prefer electronic entertainment. But why not spend time in the game room? Accept a challenge of snooker, billiards or darts, then savor a single-malt Scotch while enjoying a match of chess. It is a wonderfully tranquil way to relax after nightfall.

During the day, you will find a swimming pool maintained here in season. Tennis and fishing can also be enjoyed nearby. And for your convenience, there is a driving range and putting green provided for you to practice your golfing skills before taking on one of the many, fine local courses. You have never seen fairways so verdant.

Indeed, surrounding you at Cloth Hall are eight full acres of landscaped gardens. You will want to rise early each morning for a walk in the fresh country air. Watch the hedgerows and shrubs for butterflies and birds, occasional rabbits and field mice, or perhaps even a fox.

No doubt you have envisioned terrain like this when reading of hunts on horseback. If riding appeals to your sense of adventure, you can hire a mount for the day. Or ask the front desk to lend you one of the bicycles reserved for guests. What a fine way to tour the local area.

To go further afield, you will want to have a car. Tour the area to see “oasts,” the cone-shaped farm buildings where hops are threshed. Or stop by a local pub for a pint and bit of discourse on local events.

The more you linger, the better, for the whole point of staying at Cloth Hall is to slow down your pace. This is your opportunity to embrace the ease and refinement of country aristocracy.

A stay at a private manor in Kent for a week might cost you $812, if you got the best rate offered on Travelocity.com. But don’t even bother trying to get a reservation through a online agent.

As a member of the Global Resort Network, you can book seven days and nights at Cloth Hall for just $398. That’s a savings of more than 50%!

You have certainly earned a relaxing holiday away from it all, haven’t you? It’s time to give up the hustle and bustle of everyday life to revel in a Renaissance of refreshment. Join GRN today.

Thrills, romance, adventure and relaxation – you will have your pick of unforgettable memories in Fiji, the island paradise of the Pacific. Your base of operations here is the stylish south-shore vacation haven known as The Pearl South Pacific, located on the longest stretch of sandy beach just outside Deuba.

No one will blame you if you choose to spend most of your holiday not straying far from the resort. You have access to a championship-level 72-par, 18-hole golf course, The Country Club, designed by none other than Robert Trent Jr. Watch out for the intertwining canals that serve as traps on its long holes. Al fresco decks above the 18^th green provide café-style dining and panoramic view.

Down by the ocean near the Qaraniquio River, a natural amphitheater creates the perfect venue for a Sunday beach barbeque. Fiji’s top musicians will serenade you as you sip cocktails and dine at the Beach Bar. Or you can laze by the pool and order breakfast, lunch or dinner from The Bistro restaurant closer to your room.

Each Garden Twin affords a beautiful view from its private balcony, furnished with patio furniture. Your room will have two double beds, a marble bathroom with walk-in shower, tea/coffee-making appliances, and satellite television with in-house movies. High-speed Internet is also available.

At the Bega Lagoon, you will find some of the best snorkeling and scuba-diving in the islands. Sign up for the famous shark dive, or try game fishing, surfing, whitewater rafting and a zip-line experience nearby.

One great opportunity is a half-day of sea kayaking near the mouth of the Deuba River. You can explore the coastline’s mangrove forests and look for herons, harrier hawks and kingfishers above the azure water line, as well as coral reefs, colorful tropical fish and mud lobsters below.

You may want to try a banana boat ride, a jet skiing safari, or a diving trip to Frigate’s Passage organized by the resort. Windsurfing, volleyball and bicycle rentals are also available.

As a boutique resort with only 78 rooms and six penthouse suites, The Pearl South Pacific takes great pride in its hospitality and first-class service. Put the concierge to the test with requests for a couple of hours at the new Pearl Day Spa. And make sure to book a table at the resort’s Mantarae restaurant. It will afford you a 270-degree view of the South Pacific as well as scenic views of Beqa Island. Contemporary fusion-style cuisine is the specialty, featuring fresh local seafood an extensive wine list.

You could make a reservation direct with The Pearl South Pacific for weeklong stay priced at $1,218, and that would be a good value. Shop around a bit on Expedia.com, and you could save about $70. But there is a better, less expensive way

Global Resort Network members can book seven days and nights for just $499. That’s a savings of 59%!

The mountainous region known as Les Portes Du Soliel straddles the border between France and Switzerland, south of Lake Geneva near famous Mount Blanc. It has been lauded as one of the world’s most extensive skiing areas. Here, you will find a dozen ski resorts, fifty peaks, nine snow parks, 206 ski lifts and 700 kilometers of prepared trails, ready with powder, moguls and pistes for all levels of ability.

A rustic alpine village known as Val D’Illiez sits on the Swiss side of the ski territory at a height of 950 meters above sea level. Its central location relative to the best slopes makes it the perfect base for your outdoor excursions.

You must have a car with snow chains as well as skis if you want to get around here in winter. Otherwise, you can ride the local shuttle buses that serve the region.

A short drive to the resort of Champoussin will put you in position to tackle the majestic Dents du Midi range and the Crosets Snowpark. At 1,600 meters, you can feel how thin the air is – and fresh, too. The ski lifts operate from Christmas through Easter, when the snow is perfect.

If snowboarding is your sport, you will appreciate the special extras added to the area. There are tables, boxes and walls to challenge you. A big air super pipe, raised bends, rails and freestyle airbags will also test your abilities.

Rather than a standard hotel room, you will be staying in a studio apartment-type unit within a free-standing chalet. Your unit will have pull-downs and sofa beds, so it can accommodate a group of 4~6 persons.

Expect a full kitchen, cable television, and panoramic views in any direction you look. Common facilities include a heated pool and sauna, a restaurant serving Swiss specialties, a snack bar and grocery store.

One side trip that you will certainly want to make is to the wonderful thermal baths near Lavey and Bex. The natural hot springs are said to have curative powers, and it sure feels good to relax and soak in hot mineral water after a long day on the slopes.

If you would prefer to visit Les Portes Du Soliel in summer, there will still be plenty of activities to keep you occupied. More than 800 kilometers of hiking trails have been marked, and 24 lifts operate throughout the summer to take you to the heights. There is golf course in Aigle, just 20 minutes away. You can even visit a goat farm and see demonstrations of cheese making, with tastings afterwards.

Fishing, biking, horseback riding, rock climbing, tennis and hot air ballooning are also available. And if you still miss the snow skiing, try grass boarding – the next best thing.

How much would you have to pay if you booked a week at Les Portes Du Soliel during peak season? It could cost thousands of dollars, if you make your reservation direct with the resort. You may be able to save 20~25% if you book in advance through Travelocity. But we think that is still too much.

As an exclusive offer for members of the Global Resort Network, you can enjoy seven days and nights of alpine splendor in a one-bedroom studio unit for just $645. That’s less than $16 per person per day for a party of six!

The motto inscribed on the sundial of the bell tower in Val D’Illiez reads “Carpe Diem.” Go ahead and take its advice: “Seize the Day.” Sign up for your GRN membership today.

Fly in to Puerto Vallarta and head north to the Bay of Banderas, where an unforgettable Mexican holiday awaits you. Your destination is the four-star Villa del Palmar Flamingos Beach and Spa Resort. Featuring only suites, it is one of the area’s newest resorts and also among its finest.

This section of the coast is called Nuevo Vallarta, and its sub-tropical climate has been favorably compared to Hawaii’s. Much like those islands, the main attraction here is the wave-washed Pacific coast, where white sand beaches and lush gardens beckon.

Villa del Palmar Flamingos has a splendid beach-front location. In addition to ocean bathing, it offers multi-tiered negative-edge swimming pools, with waterfalls and a fountain play area for children.

On the surrounding sun deck, you will find lounge chairs and umbrellas. Just pick out a spot, settle in and relax. There is also a Jacuzzi hot tub for up to 30 adults, and the nearby fire pit is lit each evening for dipping after dark.

Your one bedroom suite is so spacious that it sleeps four and has a 266-square-foot private balcony overlooking the bay. The décor is contemporary Mexican style, with wood-paddle ceiling fans revolving overhead.

A 27-inch flat screen television and dial-up Internet access have been provided for your entertainment, and DVD players are available on request. Also included in your suite is a fully furnished kitchenette with a dining area, and you will find a deli and grocery store on premise.

If you prefer going out for your meals, the local cuisine is superb. You can dine in the resort’s own Bellavista Restaurant & Bar, serving buffet and à la carte meals all day long. Or walk up the beach two kilometers to the little village of Bucerias, renowned for its fresh seafood. A number of open-air restaurants will be happy to serve you there.

When you are in the mood for recreation, you can choose from dozens of activities, from snorkeling, windsurfing, kayaking and boogie boarding to golf, cycling, horseback riding and fishing. Whale watching tours can also be arranged.

One of the high points of your stay will be a daily visit to the resort’s Tatewari Spa, where the massage and wellness facilities are first class.  You will want to experience their unique water therapy, too, which combines the use of hot, jetted tubs with cold, spring water pools, followed by sauna and steam treatments, and capped off by a waterfall rinse. How refreshing!

The published price for a full week in one bedroom suite with an ocean view is $1,953. If you make your booking on Expedia.com, you can get 25 percent off the rack rate down to $1,463. But compare either of those packages to the preferred treatment you can get through Global Resorts Network – members pay only $599.

That’s a savings of nearly $200 a day – more than 69%!

A beach and spa getaway to Mexico is just what you need, isn’t it? And the price is so right. Join today and start enjoying the suite life tomorrow with your GRN membership.

Welcome aboard the Celebrity Millennium, one of the flagships of this renowned cruise line. From the moment you set foot on this 91,000-ton floating resort, you know you have chosen wisely.

Take a moment to stroll the Promenade Deck, nearly a thousand feet long from stem to stern. You will pass by the Broadway-style Celebrity Theater, bustling Fortune’s Casino, and the cocktail spot known as Michael’s Club, as you make you way to the Grand Foyer at mid-ship.  Marble floors and an onyx staircase tell you this is the luxury at sea you were seeking.

Further aft, you will come upon the Rendezvous Lounge and the Metropolitan Restaurant, where you hear the soft sounds of piano music. Stop here to take in the breathtaking view of Vancouver, B.C. as the cruise ship pulls out of port. Hard as it is to imagine, there are still ten more decks to explore.

Your stateroom may be on the Penthouse Deck, where the most lavish suite features a master bedroom, a dressing room with vanity, a powder room with shower, and separate master bath made of marble with whirlpool jets to sooth you. A private A/V center is at your disposal, and even the draperies are motorized for your convenience.

The Millennium will make its way smoothly up the Canadian coast along the seaway known as the Inside Passage. It is one of the most beautiful stretches of ocean in the world, flanked by glaciers and rocky inlets, rainforests and snow-capped peaks. Look for whales and sea lions in the cold waters below.

By the time the cruise reaches Ketchikan, Alaska, your first jumping off point, you will have already discovered the sports and recreation facilities of the three upper decks. Perhaps you went jogging, relaxed in the Riviera Pool or had a massage in the AquaSpa wellness center.

Now, you can board a seaplane for a bird’s eye view of the Misty Fjords National Monument, covering 2.2 million acres of Alaska wilderness. Or visit the Saxman Native Village to see the world’s largest collection of totem poles. It’s a day you will never forget.

Back on the ship, have a cocktail at the Persian Garden or Ocean Grill while you unwind. You might even want to do a little shopping at the boutiques on the Entertainment Deck. There is just so much to see and do here.

Your journey north will take eight days/seven nights and include stops in Juneau, Skagway and Icy Strait Point, where wildlife viewing is at its best. Your last port of call will be the Hubbard Glacier, an unforgettable natural sight to behold. When at last you moor in the fishing village of Seward, Alaska, your return flight will be waiting for you. What an adventure you have just had!

A couple could pay up to $4,998 for this once in a lifetime experience. If you were to select the least expensive inside cabin, you could still pay $1,398. But as a member of the Global Resort Network, you can book your cruise for as little as $280 per person.

That’s a savings of 60% or more!

Alaska still has some of the most spectacular untamed expanses in the world. Seeing such panoramas aboard the Celebrity Millennium will make your experience even more special. Why not join today and enjoy the preferred treatment of GRN membership.
