Not all vacationers dream of celebrating Christmas at home in a large family circle around a decorated Christmas tree when a snowstorm is raging outside. Often, this festive time is used to travel to the sea or mountains, where all-inclusive hotel systems allow you to relax and forget about the daily hustle and bustle of cooking and cleaning.

There are many such resorts that are ready to welcome guests at Christmas around the world. They value traditions and prepare a number of activities for adults and children, gifts and meetings with Santa for the holidays. USA Today told you about the best vacation options during this festive time.

1. Nickelodeon has given millions of people joyful memories and favorite characters, as more than one generation has grown up with the company's children's and teenage projects. What better time than Christmas to treat yourself and your kids to a vacation at Nickelodeon Hotels and Resorts Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic and Nickelodeon Hotels and Resorts Riviera Maya in Mexico? They offer festive menus, magic shows, sand sculpture competitions, singing, and visits from Santa.

2. Beaches Resorts in Jamaica and the Turks and Caicos Islands is suitable for those who cannot imagine Christmas without elves. Tourists will be allowed to book a room with butler service, as well as enjoy milk and cookies under the moon, marshmallow bubble baths, and holiday movies.

3. Fans of active winter recreation will definitely appreciate Club Med Quebec Charlevoix in Canada. The resort offers 300 acres of entertainment: skiing and ice skating, dog sledding, and a toboggan run. Guests will not be deprived of New Year's events and safer activities for children.

4. Hacienda AltaGracia, Auberge Resorts Collection in Costa Rica differs from the usual huge hotels with an all-inclusive system. The resort consists of 50 houses so that guests can reconnect with nature, practice yoga, and relax. However, don't worry that the celebration will be boring, as this place turns into a winter fairy tale with live music and themed dishes at Christmas.

5. The tourist area of St. James, Barbados, will delight guests this Christmas season with the Crystal Cove by Elegant Hotels resort. Visitors will be able to immerse themselves in the traditions of the region's celebration, light a Christmas tree, create a gingerbread house, attend a gnome-making workshop, and more.

6. A family trip to the C Lazy U Ranch in Colorado seems like a particularly attractive solution for Christmas, when caroling, Santa arriving in a horse-drawn sleigh, and traditional holiday turkey are all on offer. This trip will be memorable for both children and adults.

7. Mexico is one of the most colorful and cheerful countries in the world at other times of the year, and Mexicans are used to celebrating on a grand scale at Christmas. To feel this atmosphere, it is worth visiting Delta Hotels by Marriott Riviera Nayarit, which is located in the Sierra Madre Mountains near the beach. Tourists are promised festive culinary master classes, the Oaxacan craft market, and sound healing sessions.

8. Grand Velas Los Cabos is another Mexican resort that deserves attention. Travelers can look forward to gingerbread decorations, caroling, daily themed shows, and photos with Santa, who flies to the resort by helicopter. Here you can ask for a room with a Christmas tree or balls to decorate it with your family.

9. In New York City, a center of the Victorian era, the Mohonk Mountain House, opens its doors to vacationers at Christmas. Within the walls of this resort, guests can travel back in time and celebrate surrounded by vintage interior elements with the opportunity to enjoy performances of A Christmas Carol or excerpts from The Nutcracker ballet.

10. Meeting Santa at the Moon Palace Cancun, Mexico, can be one of the most memorable Christmas experiences of your life. According to the publication, in previous years, he has appeared on a parachute and a Ferrari, and what will happen this time is a mystery. One thing is for sure: the popular Christmas Village will make your vacation at the resort unforgettable.
