Resort
self-contained commercial establishment which attempts to provide for most of a vacationer's wants
A resort is a commercial place that tries to give a vacationer's wants, such as food, drink, a place to stay, sports, entertainment, and shopping, in its place.[1] The word resort may be used for a hotel place. Some resorts are also condominium places. A resort is not always a commercial place owned by a single company, but in the late 20th century, that became more common.[2]
In British English, "resort" means a town which people visit for holidays.
