Nice hotels and resorts
I was recently checking out hotels and resorts in this directory of hotels. I always enjoy browsing through nice hotels and making notes of ones I'd like to stay in at some point. These are nice hotels.
For example, the Spanish Meliá Benidorm in the Rincón de Loix of Benidorm starts at 120 Euros/night. Make sure you check out the photos for a nice-looking pool.
As many of you know, I love talking about Italy and one of the places I want to go is Meliá Poltu Quatu in Costa Smeralda, starting at 235 Euros. Again, you'll want to check out the photos. Also, I see lots of boats around the resort though I'd be going more to watch the boats and for the pool.
Cancun is famous for resorts, so I was curious to see the resorts in Cancun. If you click on the special offers link (upper right) you can see one resort, Gran Meliá Cancún, for 109.00/night which seems quite reasonable.
I've never been to Egypt, so I was curious to check out some hotels in Egypt. Apparently there are some very nice hotels in Sharm El Sheikh and a great one on Hurghada Beach (the Red Sea).
It just reminds me that there are so many places I haven't traveled to and so many great resorts in most of those places...
Get real, who would go to the Middle East in this age.....terrorists, can't trust any of them---Egyptians,Saudis,Iranians and all the other rug merchants. Visit Florida

But as I travel more, I learn of so many more places I want to see and visit. However my attitude has changed over the years. Now when someone asks if I've been somewhere, the answer is either "yes" or "not yet", I don't have "maybe someday" left in my vocabulary.
