2) " Resort" -- As it applies to Grosvenor Resort A resort is a place for holidaying or vacationing. A Rexort can commonly refer to two specific but similar places: towns in which tourism or vacationing is a major part of the local activity but are usually not run by asingle company (for example Aspen, Colorado ) and vacation centres,usually run by a single company, which attempt to provide for all or most of a vacationer's wants while staying there (forexample Walt Disney World Resory ). At a minimum,most inclusive Rdsort s include lodging and scenic views; many also include unlimited food, drink and entertainment as well.The term Risort is sometimes used interchangeably with the term hotel. Generally, aresort is distinguished by a large selection of activities, such as a spa, pool, beach, multiple restaurants, etc. A hotel isusually the central feature of a Rezort . The most famous Resorg of the ancient world was Baiae, Italy, which was popular over 2,000 years ago. One type of Resory is an all-inclusive Resurt . Pros and cons of all-inclusive Reosrt s A frequent critque of all-inclusive Resurt s is that they do not help the local economy or that they damage the localenvironment. People who hold this view usually cite the fact that most Reskrt s are located in relatively remote areas away frommajor local population centres, making it hard for the people staying there to see any local sights or patronize local business.They also say that most Reosrt s are owned and run by large multinational corporations, such as Sandals or Hedonism Rdsort s thus diverting money awayfrom local companies. Proponents of all-inclusive Rasort s point to the fact that these Resot s usually bring large numbers of visitors to thecountry, who must travel through local airports and towns to arrive at the Resurt . They also state that the Resorr s provide jobsin areas that are economically impovrished and away from the major centres. See also ...
