Escaping for the Holidays

(St. James, Paris)While getting together for the holidays with family and friends may be warm and festive, you might just need a little R&R away from it all.  Perhaps an escape to one of these beautiful resorts will rejuvenate you to face the new year. 

We took a look at some incredibly designed hotels (of course!) and found these eye candies from around the world. Paris is always a romantic destination and St. James hotel in Paris will not disappoint those desiring a romantic tryst.  The guest rooms are luxuriously designed with glamorous fabrics and materials. If you ever dreamed of living in a chateau, then book a stay at the St. James.

(Las Ventanas al Paraiso, Los Cabos, Mexico)If warm breezes on a beach is more your idea of an escape, then ogle Las Ventanas al Paraiso in Los Cabos, Mexico.  The windows to Paradise resort is aptly named as it borders the ocean on the Baja Peninsula.  The resort is designed in a relaxed Spanish hacienda style with intricately carved woods and ironwork.

For those where wining and dining is the ideal R&R, then escape to the Napa River Inn in the tranquil wine country of Napa, California.  The guest rooms have the cosy feel of a bed and breakfast but with the size and luxury of a resort hotel.  Each room is uniquely designed with beautiful prints and comfortable armchairs and beds.
