Reasons For The Escalating Popularity Of Exclusive Travel


by Allan Hatchell


In the minds of many ordinary individuals, the word travel or vacation elicits memories and fantasies of having fun on an island, touring some oceans, gambling in a casino or lying in a hammock out in the sun. However, this definition does not fit for all citizens. Some people are charmed to the thought of touring hither undiscovered areas. This niche has shoved exclusive travel into the limelight.

Free spirits are extraordinary individuals in society who crave to do the previously unthinkable. They crave to visit previously untouched grounds rather than the normal tourist destinations. In their sojourns, they seek hidden charms of nature. Contrary to popular belief, there are quite a number of locations that have not been discovered.

Creepy places are some of the unnatural attractions that appeal to adventurous travelers. There are plenty of such places all over the world. At least every city or region in the United States has a place considered to be creepy by ordinary men. It could be a haunted bridge from which dogs fall off, a haunted house or hotel, an ancient prison, ruins of famous places or forests.

Many tourists are drawn to the thought of finding something ethereal that could make them famous. The path of exploration is often dangerous thus creating a sense of intrigue. The thrill is like a drug for adventurous types. A couple of places are said to be haunted by thousands of apparitions that make eerie noises during the night.

Other than scary locations, one might decide to visit an isolated country such as Sweden, Greenland and some islands off the coast of Australia. Some of the rocky beaches in these countries are ideal for extreme sports like paragliding, bungee jumping, ice skating and rock climbing. In addition, one gets to see the breathtaking ice capped mountains that line the Alps.

Other than that, these countries offer excellent spots for fishing, diving and snorkeling. The fish found in such areas are unknown to the rest of the world due to their rareness. The fishes in the Alpine seas are bountiful and come in many colors, shapes and sizes. They glisten in the waters creating a picture perfect paradise. The large numbers of sea animals make the location ideal for individuals who are into fishing.

Seekers of adventure might find themselves on an isolated island with dangerous tribes, in a rain forest teeming with mosquitoes and venomous snakes or a desert that stretches past the limits of the eye. However, these are the bits that make exclusive travel fascinating. In the past two decades, abnormal tourist attractions have gained mass attraction. This is led by the revolt from traditional tourist attractions. Individuals are looking for more thrilling and captivating places to visit.

Florida Villas: An Ideal Place To Vacate

Florida Villas: An Ideal Place To Vacate


by Carol Baker


Take a moment and think Florida villas. What comes to mind should be the best vacation you'll ever have. Do you want to look out over the ocean while you eat breakfast? How about a round of golf afterward? Maybe a trip to a local museum or an outdoor concert in the park. You'll need a relaxing day before you take the kids to Disney-world tomorrow. Yes, you can do all that from a hotel room, so why is a Florida villa the place for you? Glad you asked.

Villas were originally the country homes for Italian nobility and the wealthy. Now, celebrities like George Clooney have one and never seem to want to leave. After two days in Florida villas, you'll never want to leave either. As either a part of a larger resort, or isolated from the usual tourist hotels and areas, a Florida villa holiday is something out of the ordinary you will never forget.

To find one, you need to start looking Florida vacation websites by the city you intend to stay near and filter the results by 'villa'. When you're there, you can sort by the lease you want to pay, the number of bedrooms, private swimming pool, or even if you want the kitchen stocked and prepared for you on arrival.

No matter where you decide to go, it's never a long drive to a baseball game, golf course, horse track or a stock car race. There's also that little football team called the Dolphins waiting for you. If you want something a little more filling than a stadium hot dog, then you'll find more world class restaurants than you'll have time to eat at, even if you stay all winter.

When it comes to attractions, there's more to Florida than just the House of Mouse. There are over a dozen major aquariums, not to include Sea World. Busch Gardens is another incredible place for the family. You want to take a day for golf? There are over 165 courses for to choose from.

If you prefer the indoor life, there is still a villa for you. Many Florida villas are located within minutes of the museums, libraries, historical sites and shopping centers. At night, you'll find yourself just as close to some of the most amazing nightclubs and concert venues you'll ever see.

When choosing a vacation home, here are a few things to remember why you want to choose from Florida villas:

1) Villas offer more room than even a spacious hotel room at a lower cost. Rental rates are for the house and not per person. More luxury for less money.

2) Since they are houses, Florida villas give more personal advantages for your convenience like extensive kitchen amenities, private swimming pools and full size, exclusive bedrooms.

3) Most of the villas are privately, locally owned, so they are maintained at a higher standard than hotel rooms. Also, local owners know the best places to go and where you can get the best shopping bargains.
