We are Passover Resorts. Passover is a Jewish holiday that can be celebrated at home or in a hotel setting. Passover falls in the spring usually in April but sometimes it begins late in March. Our potential guests come from all over the world in addition to all over the United States expecting a full Passover experience in a hotel and/or resort setting. Some guests come locally but the majority does not. So it is helpful if we know of websites where they can purchase Cheap Air Tickets . Guests have Kosher for Passover Seders and all other meals and snacks during the holiday. We have entertainment including singers, magicians, hypnotists, mentalists and jugglers during the program. Our entertainers can come from anywhere in the United States and sometimes they come from as far away as Israel. It is handy to know of a website where we can purchase  Cheap Air Tickets for the entertainers. A day camp is provided for children 18 months thru 12 years. We have indoor activities utilizing books, games, toys and on some days arts and crafts. We also take the children outside to play sometimes on the grassy areas and other times we have sports activities such as basketball, hockey, volleyball and soccer on the cement surfaces. For the pre-school age children we have Little Tykes type climbing equipment if the hotel doesn’t have a playground or there isn’t one nearby. There is also a teen program which is housed in a room we set up with activities teens would enjoy such as ping pong table, pool table, indoor basketball hoops, knock hockey and others. We need staff for the day camp and teen program and applicants for these jobs come from all over the United States. So we also need cheap air tickets for them. We know of two great websites for cheap air tickets and they are: www.cheapfareguru.com and www.airtkt.com. These folks have come up with incredible deals for us not only saving us money but also arranging itineraries that we could never find on our own.

The resorts, cruise lines and tour agencies are sensitive to economic woes, so they are cutting their prices down like I have never seen in my 20 years in this business. Whether you are looking for a family vacation, maybe a Romantic Getaway or a trip with your friends, my top picks for this week fit all of the above!

 I found 6 incredible deals that fit different travelers’ needs.

1) Barbados All Inclusive, Barbados Beach Club: The deal of the century: $399 per person includes airfare, 5 nights hotel including food, drink and entertainment! The Barbados Beach Club is located directly on the beach of the scenic south coast, a stone’s throw away from the very best in shopping and nightlife. This all inclusive offers three restaurants, nightly entertainment and a dedicated area for families. The main hotel is for singles and couples, this resort carefully separated the families from the rest so everyone has an environment to fit their needs.

Venetos serves á la carte Italian cuisine or overlooking the Caribbean Sea, Sea Rocks Restaurant offers a unique dining experience with impeccable service.

2) Jamaica All Inclusive, Fun Holiday Beach Resort, Negril, Jamaica: I have been going to Negril for 15 years and what I love most about it is I still feel that REAL Jamaica feeling, there are still shops that are shacks with native food, music and drink. Yes, Negril has become more touristy over the years, but there is still an ambiance of Island Reggae making you feel that you have left civilization for a calmer, simpler life. Negril is also one of the best beaches in all of the Caribbean. Across from the beach, The Fun Holiday Resort is a simple all inclusive resort in a good location offering Fun Time Band for live reggae 2 nights a week at the beach restaurant that features seafood and Jamaican cuisine! For more late night fun, check out the disco across the street! On premises car, jeep, jet- ski and scooter rentals for when you aren’t spending time in your air conditioned room watching the cable TV or listening to the optional CD player or ordering Room Service from the beach restaurant! All food and drinks in the restaurants are included. $499 per person includes airfare to Jamaica, transfer to the hotel, 7 nights hotel, food, drink, and some activities. You can not leave Negril without taking a ride to Rick’s café – where there is cliff diving and some of the most beautiful sun sets I have ever seen.

3) Exclusives at Club Med and SuperClubs: For those who do not know about these two chains, Club Med is an all inclusive (not including soda or alcoholic drinks) that has a property to fit every person. Properties are categorized as singles, couples (adults only) and families. The family Club Meds are the best for children, with continuous activities for all.

Atlantis is perfect for families, with the Aqua Tots program for children 3-12, Discovery Kids Adventure and the Atlantis Kids’ Club; children’s pools throughout the property, in room babysitting and a “Gentle Travel” kit for babies including tips from Dr.Trachtenberg, a lullaby CD, a nightlight and variety of JOHNSON’S© best baby products. Don’t worry; this is also a singles/couples without children destination as well. This large resort and casino which dominates the island’s real estate, is a mega-plex of fun and excitement. They have everything for those of us that feel that money is no object (they house one of the world’s most expensive hotel suites in the world – $25,000 per night) to those of us that are more price savvy.

There are also deep savings with the kids dining plan where kids 6 and under eat free, this will save tons of money if you take advantage of it. A 3nt package is only $339 per adult, use code XDH386.

5) Family Friendly Resorts at Shell Vacations Hospitality: These unique resorts are great for families, however, don’t turn away if you do not have children; these resorts have something for everyone.

Currently they are offering 15% of their regular rates plus a $15 gas card to help you out with driving around. Resorts are located in California, Arizona, Hawaii, Texas, Nevada and Canada. Teach the kids some history and take the family to the Alamo staying at Hill Country Inn & Suites at Salado Creek Villas. This is a seven acre resort with a Texas Hill Country charm and comfortable accommodations such as ranch style porches, 2 oversized Jacuzzis surrounded by lush garden greenery, daily continental breakfast, outdoor swimming pool, children’s playground and barbecue grills and picnic tables throughout the property.

6) Orlando Vacations: When we say Orlando, we think Disney, Universal, Sea World, and tons of other family entertainment fun. Yes, there are tons of expenses on this trip – so the hotel really can not be one of them. So you want to be on Disney property because it is convenient and easy, but think it is too expensive? I found a deal for $89 per night inside Disney, including breakfast and up to $200 off in half price Gas. Stay inside of Disney with continuous shuttles to all the Disney parks, FREE continental breakfast for two guests each day, a $25 Food and Beverage Credit to be used at the hotel plus other great Best Western amenities like free wireless internet throughout the hotel and private balconies to relax on.

Ghana has emerged and evolved on the map of the world as a prominent and largely visited African Country during the past decade. Like any other country in Africa, Ghana is also known for its rich tradition, prominent culture and colorful festivals. “Homowa Festival” is one such festival that attracts the attentions of tourists and media around the world.

The unique and most impressive thing about Ghanaian’s or any African nation is that the people are so strong, so bold, so confident and so strong willed that nothing could ever stand in their way. If you go through pages of history and have a look at the wounded endeavors, from Hunger, famine to salvation, there has been a series of hardships that the people of Africa have stood before and raised above. Keeping in mind this history , “Homowo Festival” is trail and secret of the strength still visible in all young and old alike. As the name of this festival indicates “hooting on hunger”.

The word Homowo is derived from two different words “Homo” meaning “Hunger” and “wo” meaning “sleep”. The word “Homowo” means to hoot and jeer at hunger. It tells the story of the people who were not scared of the deadliest of natural disasters and fieriest of enemies. The tradition of Homowo started with a period of hunger leading to famine due to failure of the seasonal rains needed by crops in the Greater Accra Region, where the Ghana people predominately dwell. When the rains returned to normal, the Ghanaians celebrated by creating the Homowo festival hence it name and meanings are the traces of the event that gave birth to this colorful festival.

This colorful festival is celebrated every year with full enthusiasm and spreads a sheer cheerfulness through out the country. By celebrating this event Ghanian people keep alive their traditions and values of true people of early Ghana. The young and old are entwined with the rich drumming and dance traditions that were once a part of every day of life. The festival is characterized by rituals such as the sprinkling of “Kpokpoi” (the festival dish) to the gods and ancestors for spiritual protection, procession of twins through the principal streets, traditional drumming and dancing and general merry-making. A month before the celebration, there is a ban of noise making. A climax of the festival is that from 12 noon to 6:00pm any woman, no matter the status, should accept a hug from a man on the festival street. And this makes it a very interesting, open hearted and joyful event.

The festival starts every year with the month of May with the planting of crops just before the rainy season starts. The musicians and dancers of Homowo are living examples of the strength of African performing arts. The repertoire, featuring the yesterday, today and tomorrow of Ghanaian cultural arts, creates an acoustic and visual history of Ghana and brings the spirit alive in every Ghaian. If you are planning to visit Ghana during Homowa Festival, many European and African airlines offer cheap flights to Ghana at a very low rate. However, the best deals are still with only a handful of airline like Egypt, Ghana International or KLM. For more details visit: Cheap Flights
