Resort
A resort is a place for holidaying or vacationing. Two kinds of places are usually called resorts: towns in which tourism or vacationing is a major part of the local activity (for example Aspen, Colorado); and vacation centres which attempt to provide for all or most of a vacationer's wants while staying there (for example Walt Disney World). At a minimum, most resorts include lodging and scenic views. Many all-inclusive resorts, such as Sandals, include unlimited food, drink and entertainment as well.See also: The Breakers
Resort is also an English word meaning recourse. An example of usage: "Jim went to Ann as his last resort to save his company."
