It came about by accident.<br />Our team worked to think of a name, which was proving difficult, particularly because some of us don't have English as our first language. We found Best Beach Resorts on a list of domain names for sale and someone suggested a catchy phrase: "Best Beach Resorts where I wanna go to!" What he meant was "I go to wherever I want to go."It kind of stuck. We think of it as global slang for "I go to."<br /><br />What's important is that the word 'go' lies at the heart of Best Beach Resorts. That's what we want you to do. Go! Get out there. Travel, experience, push your boundaries, whether on business or vacation.<br />Join Us<br /><br />We'd love to have you in our team or simply part of our circle. We really value your comments.

We hope you enjoy Best Beach Resorts and have a great journey.<br /><br />Keep traveling,<br />The Best Beach Resorts Team http://www.imeem.com/bestbeachresorts Delta 0 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Beach Resort Jobs<br /><br />Does the idea of getting paid to serve drinks in Barbados, work as a lifeguard in Tahiti, or patrol a surf-swept beach in Maui appeal to you? The attractions of collecting a paycheck in exchange for taking part in activities you enjoy is obvious. Other benefits of beach resort jobs include meeting people from fascinating places, gaining new skills, building confidence in customer interaction, and developing a greater appreciating for exotic tropical places.<br />Can I just work at a beach resort for a season, or do I need to commit for the whole year?<br /><br />Yes, beach resort companies from Maui to Greece hire thousands of "seasonals" every year. The resorts need to staff up for their peak season and often do so with season employees.<br /><br />There are also thousands of jobs for people who want to work longer - anywhere from six months to several years.<br />What type of people work at a beach resort?<br /><br />No matter what your background, there's probably a job waiting for you at one of the many beach resorts around the world. That means that people with different skills, employment requirements, and interests work at destination beach resorts. Typically, though, resort workers fall into three categories:<br /><br /> * Students<br /> * Those in transition<br /> * Skilled career employees<br /><br />What jobs are available working at a beach resort or other resort?<br /><br />Beach resorts offer also offer a wide variety of employment opportunities. At these beach resorts there are the standard positions that are at any nice hotel such as: front desk, bell staff, guest services, concierges, doormen, housekeepers, accountants, food staff, bartenders, retail clerks, youth coordinators, child care staff, security personnel, and PBX operators. In addition, depending on the resort, they may also hire: musicians and entertainers, sport instructors (tennis, surfing, water skiing, golf, weight training, etc), beach staff, casino staff, massage therapists, beauty salon staff, and hosts, to name a few.<br />How much can I earn working a resort job?<br /><br />Earnings and benefits vary according to your position, the company you work for, and your previous experience. Most people who work in this industry decide to work here based on the settings and recreation opportunities, not for the outstanding pay. Although these jobs pay enough to cover your expenses and transportation, you should not expect to get rich based on your base pay. People who work in jobs in which they receive gratuities from the guests can make substantially more than other workers. It is not uncommon for a waiter in a nice restaurant to make $200 - $300 per night in tips.<br />Will I be supplied room and board at the resort?<br /><br />This really varies by resort and company. Some resorts make it standard practice to offer room and board to their employees and others leave it up to the employees to find their own housing. CruiseJobFinder helps you match yourself to the employer and resort that best matches your needs and desires.<br />Resort job Worker Profile - Massage Therapist<br />An interview with a real resort worker<br /><br />Ken Kindt worked as a massage therapist at the Woodstock Inn and Resort in Vermont.<br /><br />The work of a massage therapist is quite varied. Some of it is therapy work for injuries. There are also people who come in for stress-related relief, and others who come in strictly for relaxation.<br /><br />The resort requires coverage 365 days per year, so as much as I want to work, I'm working. I usually work six days per week, and I rarely do less than five massages per day-usually more like six to eight during the week and eight to ten on the weekends. The weekends are definitely work days. It's pretty busy year-round here, although some resorts have busy seasons and slow seasons.<br /><br />My typical day usually starts out with leaving home about eight or nine o'clock. The first massage is at nine or ten, so I go in about half an hour ahead of time and set up the table. I like to keep my lotions and oils warm, so I'll run a sink full of warm water and let the bottles float in there. I have to wait for the room to adjust to the right temperature. Then I'll start on the first appointment and proceed through the day that way.<br /><br />Each massage is a full hour with fifteen minutes between each client. During that time I change the table over and get the room ready for the next person. I take breaks as they come, and often a day will book solid, sometimes with eight massages back-to-back. As a result, I don't eat lunch very often, so I always try to pack an apple or other snack. At the end of the day I'll check the appointment book for the next day and write down my schedule. It's also nice to think about who's coming in and how they like things so that I can get mentally prepared.<br /><br />The more education you have, the better off you are going to be. You'd be amazed at the number of questions you get asked. People ask you questions as though you're a doctor, but you're not.<br /><br />The drawback of working as a massage therapist is that you are almost never on salary. If your hands aren't working, you're not making a dime. So you have no guarantees. But you also have a lot of independence. You can take your hands almost anywhere you want to go.<br /><br />The biggest reward of being a massage therapist is that it's a self-energizing job. You will usually finish a day tired but rarely exhausted. I never have a day where I don't want to go back the next day. I meet interesting people, and I don't see their bad side. When they come in they want to unwind. It's a very enjoyable job.<br /><br />If you have an inkling that you might like this kind of work, I'd encourage you to do it. I wish I'd started sooner. It beats working for a living, because it really doesn't seem like you're working.<a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/jobs" rel="tag"></a><a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/resort" rel="tag"></a><a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/beach" rel="tag"></a> Beach Resort Best Resorts Best Beach Resorts http://www.imeem.com/bestbeachresorts/blogs/2008/08/01/Eai5IbzW/work-in-beach-resorts-jobs-in-beach-resorts Fri, 01 Aug 2008 07:06:08 -0000 NOB1yOqLKz Why Go<br />A beach vacation at the Bitter End Yacht Club is all about the activities.

Resorts typically include all the services you'll need while staying on the island. While villas are a great way to enjoy privacy, you'll find that a resort is more convenient when you need certain services.<br /><br />Enjoying the Tropics at a Caribbean Beach Resort<br />A typical Caribbean beach resort offers full-service restaurants, dry cleaning centers, laundry rooms, internet access, currency exchanges, and more. If you want help planning events, your resort activities desk will also help you decide on exciting and adventurous excursions. Relax by the pool or enjoy a cocktail underneath your umbrella at the beach. With fully staffed waiters and waitresses, you'll never even need to leave your lounge chair.<br /><br />Different resorts offer different programs to suit all travelers. Find resorts online that specialize in activities for kids or specifically for honeymooners. Resorts also offer great deals on all inclusive packages.<br /><br />Look for a Caribbean beach resort that offers hurricane guarantees. In the event that a tropical storm spoils your vacation, your resort will offer you a free trip back that even includes airfare! There's no better way to ensure you get the vacation you deserve.

Want to find that perfect stretch of beach and blue water where you can let all your cares drift away on warm tropical breezes? Welcome to the Forbes.com list of the best beach resorts in the world.<br /><br />Many countries, of course, can offer many fine resorts, but to make your decision easier, we have picked only one resort per country, based on the beauty of the beach and the service and amenities of the resort.<br /><br />Whether you are looking for a family-oriented vacation or a romantic getaway, chances are you will find the resort that's right for you. <br /><br />California<br /><br />Shutters on the Beach<br /><br />Although it only opened in 1993, Shutters on the Beach calls to mind a grand resort hotel of the 1920s. Each one of its nearly 200 rooms have shuttered doors that open onto private balconies but guests who want to have a view of the ocean will have to pay more. The hotel has become a favorite romantic getaway for the Hollywood crowd, and is the only luxury beachfront hotel in Los Angeles.<br /><br />Shutters on the Beach<br />One Pico Boulevard<br />Santa Monica, California 90405<br />Phone: (310) 458-0030<br />Fax: (310) 458-4589<br /><br />Hawaii<br /><br /><br />Courtesy of Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea<br /><br />Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea<br /><br />There are many incredible beaches and superb resorts in Hawaii, but for service, food, location and ambiance, nothing beats the Four Seasons resort on Maui. The island boasts gorgeous weather year round and its white sand beaches and clear blue water make for great scuba diving, snorkeling, wind surfing or just world-class goofing off.<br /><br />Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea<br />3900 Wailea Alanui<br />Wailea, Maui, Hawaii 96753<br />Phone: (808) 874-8000<br />Fax: (808) 874-6449<br /><br /><br /><br />Rhode Island<br /><br />Weekapaug Inn<br /><br />Around the turn of the 19th century dozens of grand seaside resorts dotted the most fashionable coastal villages of the East Coast from Nova Scotia down to Florida. Few of them remain and most of those that do now must pursue the lucrative conference business in order to remain solvent. Fortunately, the Weekapaug Inn, just a few miles outside of Watch Hill, has remained true to its original conception. Still family-run, it's open only from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Rooms are spartan but clean. There's no telephone. Children are welcome--the more the merrier. There's no bar or any fancy spa services, but there is a lovely beach, terrific food and a cookout every Thursday night.<br /><br />Weekapaug Inn<br />25 Spray Rock Road<br />Weekapaug, Rhode Island 02891<br />Phone: (401) 322-0301<br />Fax: (401) 322-1016<a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/resorts" rel="tag"></a><a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/best" rel="tag"></a><a href="http://www.imeem.com/tag/beach" rel="tag"></a> Beach Resort Best Resorts Best Beach Resorts http://www.imeem.com/bestbeachresorts/blogs/2008/07/28/diNzgn_p/best-beach-resorts Mon, 28 Jul 2008 14:23:21 -0000 pJNiJ_oghU
