Four Seasons Great Exuma Resort Sold

Sandals Resorts recently announced it had purchased the now-closed Four Seasons Great Exuma Resort at Emerald Bay in the Bahamas. The resort opened in 2003 but closed earlier this year. Sandals is planning a major pool area upgrade as well as adding in more dining venues. The new resort will have its grand opening on January 22, 2010.

Four Seasons Aviara

One of my personal favorites, the Four Seasons Aviara in Northern San Diego is offering a great Spring Break Getaway. You will receive a $100 resort credit and for every 2 nights paid you will receive the third night free! If you stay 6 nights, you get 2 nights free. All reservations must be booked through a travel professional, but with average temps in the 70s year round and airfare from Denver just $179 - why shouldn't you go!

Four Seasons Miami

The Four Seasons Miami is offering an unbelievable deal now through April 30, 2009. If you stay 2 nights you get the 3rd night complimentary to lounge by the pool in a private cabana, walk the shops on Lincoln, relax in the world class Spa or enjoy the numerous dining venues like Wish that are located right outside your door.

Sensational Scottsdale

Scottsdale is probably one of my favorite destinations in the US. It is easy (& cheap) to fly into the Phoenix airport from almost any other city in the United States and the resorts in the Scottsdale area are amazing. Virtuoso has over 9 properties listed in their Best of the Best book. Check out this picture I recieved this morning from my rep at the Sanctuary at Camelback:

Who wouldn't want to visit this resort - not to mention their bar Jade and the spa are both internationally renowned in the travel industry. And if you are a star watcher (and I don't mean the kind in the sky, although those are amazing too), there are plenty of chances to grab a sighting or two.

Just today I receive announcements from two of my other fave properties. These are steaks abd deals you won't want to miss. The brand new Intercontinental Montelucia Resort and Spa is offering a rate of just $240 per night for the Tositos Fiesta Bowl that will feature Ohio State vs. Texas. Its a sweet deal to get somewhere warm in the midst of winter, check out great college football and the chance to savor a piece of the Mediterranean at this hotel.

The Four Seasons Scottsdale just introduced a Stay Longer in the Spring promotion. By booking a 2 night stay, you will receive a 3rd night free. The hotel just completed a multi-million enhancement project leaving all 210 casita guest rooms and suites completely renovated. I just visited this property in early April 2007 and thought it was fantastic before the renovation so I can't wait to see it now! As guests of the hotel, you will receive preferred tee times, complimentary Kids Club programs and if you book through a Virtuoso agent you can get an upgrade upon arrival if available, daily breakfast for two, a welcome amenity and a 50% discount on valet parking. Who wouldn't want to spend the spring lounging in this amazing pool:
