Description
Parent/Faculty Hotel Choice: Located on the only private beach in downtown Nassau, the British Colonial Hilton offers beautiful accommodations in a convenient location. Decorated in dark wood colonial-style furnishings, accented with pink marble floors and peppered with palm trees around the grounds, this Nassau hotel evokes a relaxed Bahamian vibe. Although the resort has a pool area, most guests prefer to spend their days kicking back on a lounge chair under a thatched sunshade on the Hilton's lovely 300 foot long white sands beach. Guests also enjoy free use of recreational gear including snorkeling equipment, kayaks, and oversized tubes for a day of splashing in the warm Caribbean waters. The Hilton features a number of eating and drinking options including the Portofino, an international restaurant with a Caribbean twist, the Patio Bar & Grille where you can grab a light meal or a snack after a day at the beach, and Blackbeard's Cove & Lobby Bar. Just minutes away from two casinos, the Straw Market and a number of amazing Nassau restaurants and clubs, the Hilton is the perfect place for parents and faculty to stay while accompanying students on their grad trips.

Description
Parent/Faculty Hotel Choice: Located on a gorgeous stretch of the Caribbean Sea, the Omni Cancun is a great destination for parents and faculty accompanying students on their Cancun high school graduation trips. With three cascading swimming pools and a 35-person capacity ocean-view Jacuzzi, the Omni has ample opportunities for relaxation in the Mexican sun. This Cancun hotel offers all-inclusive packages for your convenience and features beautifully-decorated standard, villa and ocean-view rooms and a number of restaurants on-site. And because the Omni, which recently underwent a $15 million facelift, is located in the middle of the 'Hotel Zone,' you'll only be a cab ride away from the Cancun clubs and restaurants where your students will be hanging out at.
