March means, among other things, it’s high time to start planning for spring break. If you’re lucky enough to still receive a spring break (or are taking matters into your own hands and creating one!), we’ve got four travel packages tailormade to give you the best spring break imaginable – no matter what kind of vacation you prefer.

For the Spring Break Traditionalist:
Head to Half Moon, Jamaica for an all-inclusive, Perfectly Pampered escape to beat the band. Daily spa treatments, included meals, indoor/outdoor recreation…you won’t run out of things to do if you can peel yourself off that 2 mile white sand beach.

For the Adventurous Type:
Ever wanted to be rewarded for trying something new? Make it a reality with the Two New, Too Terrific package at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, New England. Two guests who have never stayed at the resort can each receive 15% off their package stay. Jet off to somewhere brand new together!

For the Desert Lover:
Book a 5-night all-inclusive stay and enjoy your 5th night for free at the Miraval Arizona resort property. Enjoy included meals, facility use, access to classes, and a $130 resort credit every night of stay. You can use it for golf, the spa, or private wellness consultation – take your pick!

For the R&R Fan:
If your idea of a vacation is catching lots of rest and relaxation in a gorgeous setting, the Spa Week InnSPAration Package from The Founders Inn and Spa in Virginia is for you. Enjoy luxurious accommodations and a $100 credit to go towards some of the most soothing spa treatments you’ve ever experienced.

It’s about that time when most of us in the working world (and stay-at-home parents, I assume) wish we had a Spring Break. If you are one of the lucky few in this mess of an economy that gets to use some vacation days in April, why not travel during Spa Week?

Across the US and Canada, many hotel spas are offering $50 treatments during Spa Week. If you travel from April 13-19, stay at one of these hotels and indulge in some pampering on the cheap at their spa:

I miss Spring Break. It’s that week or so of frivolity and excess wedged between winter quarter finals and the final few weeks of school. Nowadays the closest I get to a Spring vaca is living vicariously through family and friends who are still free to enjoy the first weeks of sun.

Who, for instance wouldn’t want to enjoy the S’mores, Slides and Shamu package offered by The Blue Marble Spa at the Hyatt Regency in Mission Bay, San Diego? For just $299 a night, your family can stay at the Hyatt and enjoy the sights of San Diego, including world-famous Sea World just down the road. The package also includes a s’mores kit, a gift certificate to the eco-friendly Blue Marble Spa and access to the many water sport activities the Hyatt has to offer including boating, jet skiing, sailing, windsurfing and wakeboarding. All fabulous ingredients for a fun-filled family Spring Break.

If you’ll be in the San Diego area from Apri 13-19 take advantage of The Blue Marble Spa’s Spa Week treatments!
