Real Resort Cancun

Foreign hotels are keen to the idea that travelers have many economic obstacles facing them when planning a vacation. With climbing airfares and less discretionary spending in their budgets, eager vacationers are looking for an incentive to spark their travel interest.

Many properties around the globe are doing their best to encourage travel such as the Royal Resort Cancun where bargain-priced spa packages provide luxurious pampering. The all-inclusive resort hotel on the edge of the turquoise waters of a quiet beach offers a two-hour sun and sea spa package, 50-minute residue facial experience, 30-minute cool hydro experience, 50-minute aloe rescue, and cool muslin sheets draped in herbal infusion all for $185 (the price that some resorts charge for just a massage treatment). Mexican resorts, especially, are able to offer excellent deals to travelers due to the weak Mexican Peso.

At the Capital Hotel in London (where the British pound has soared to new highs against the weak U.S. Dollar), special rates practically guarantee a fair exchange providing a holiday gift for Americans who are planning ahead. The family-owned hotel has locked in rates pegged to the Dollar to insure the price does not climb any higher than expected. This tremendous value provides enough incentive to splurge on expensive items from Harrod’s or the other luxury boutiques in its Knightsbridge neighborhood.

The property’s “Capital Idea” package features a three night stay, full English Breakfast each morning, and luxury chauffer-driven towncar to and from the airport or train station. To top it off, guests booking this special guaranteed American Dollar rate will also receive free access to a full-service health club and spa within walking distance of this boutique inn and a special welcome gift upon arrival.
For reservations, please email reservations@capitalhotel.co.uk.

Other hotels across the globe are following suit to encourage winter travel. The best bet is to contact hotels directly to inquire about any special rates or packages.
