\"Orb_img_beachwizard2_250x180\"<\/a>Want to hit the beach, but you’re not sure where to go? Check out Orbitz’s innovative new search tool, which helps travelers plan a beach vacation<\/a><\/strong> based on their specific needs and interests.<\/p>\n

When you visit MyIdealBeach.com<\/a><\/strong>, you’ll be asked to identify who’s traveling (family with kids, for example), choose your preferred
\nactivities (e.g. shopping, golf, nightlife), and identify hotel<\/a><\/strong> features and amenities (spa, gay-friendly, etc.) you want.<\/p>\n

You also can modify your results based on region and sort results by price, location, and hotel<\/a><\/strong> star rating.<\/p>\n

The tool searches more than 450 of Orbitz’s top beachfront hotels<\/a><\/strong> in the United States, the Caribbean<\/a><\/strong>, Mexico<\/a><\/strong> and South America that have been hand-picked and ranked by Orbitz’s team of hotel<\/a><\/strong> market managers based on the criteria.<\/p>\n

Travelers can then choose from a recommended list of select properties — from South Beach hotels<\/a><\/strong> to Maui hotels<\/a><\/strong> to Myrtle Beach hotels<\/a><\/strong> — that most closely match their ideal beach. All inclusive vacations<\/a><\/strong> also are among the options.<\/p>\n
