Luxury resorts are working hard to keep afloat, and keep staff employed as travelers cut back from five star to four star hotels. Rather than cut prices, the Acqualina Resort and Spa in Florida is offering a short-stay alternative to international travelers who need a layover in the Miami area before reaching their final luxury destination.
You can choose to pamper yourself in the luxury spa, or if you need an overnight stay, there are 188 Mediterranean-inspired houses or 97 luxury suites.
