The best spots to kick off your New Year’s resolutions
Happy New Year! 2022 is finally here, and with it comes a chance to reset and make new resolutions for the year ahead. To help you keep up with your New Year’s resolutions, we came up with some of the spots that will help you achieve your goals well beyond the January slump. Whether you want to spend more time with the fam, commit to an exercise regime or make new memories, these resorts will help you make 2022 the best year yet.
If your resolution is to lead a healthier lifestyle
From exercising more to eating less fast food, developing a healthier lifestyle is one of the most popular New Year’s resolutions year after year. When you’re stuck at home in Canada in the winter, where the weather is gloomy and it gets dark so early, you’re probably going to feel less motivated to schlep to the gym when you could order takeout at home. You’ll feel a lot more motivated to keep up with your routine at Riu Palace Tropical Bay in Jamaica! The popular resort offers the RiuFit program with a workout pavilion overlooking the ocean, a fully-equipped fitness centre and plenty of fun classes like aqua aerobics where you can work up a sweat.
If your resolution is to spend quality time with loved ones
Lots of people want to spend more time with friends and family that they may have only gotten to see over a screen during the pandemic. What better way to catch up on all that missed time than by making new memories together on vacation? Reconnecting and spending quality time together is easy at Memories Varadero Beach Resort in Cuba, which offers something for all ages and interests. You can look forward to fun-filled entertainment, an action-packed kids club with popular characters Toopy and Binoo™ and a sprawling pool with a water slide that kids (and kids at heart) will love.
If your resolution is to disconnect more from technology
We’re all guilty of being glued to our phones, tablets and laptops – even more so with the current climate of remote work and learning. If you want to try and disconnect from your devices, Palmaia the House of Aia is a great place to do it. The Riviera Maya enclaves is focused on wellness and offers holistic experiences, including personal growth programs offered by the resort’s in-house Shaman. You’ll forget all about Instagram as you wake up each morning to ocean views from your suite’s balcony, participate in a yoga class and indulge in gourmet plant-based cuisine. If you can’t resist boasting about your Insta-worthy view, there’s free Wi-Fi available across the resort.
If your resolution is to have new experiences
