If you need a break from gift shopping and holiday parties, this is a perfect time to start planning a beach getaway.  While we all have our favorite tropical destinations, it could be time to consider going somewhere new.  The 2014-2015 beach season is offering a wide variety of new beach hotels which span the globe.  Whether you’re looking to take a dip in the Caribbean, Pacific, or Indian Ocean, you can find thoughtful design, luxurious amenities and access to a great beach at all of these resorts.  Here’s a look at the best new beach hotels opening around the world.

If you’re debating between a safari or a beach vacation, one way to incorporate both is to book a stay at the new Saruni Ocean, located on Kenya’s south coast.  Opening on December 15, the resort will feature 7 villas, each with views of the Indian Ocean.  The Décor is sleek but uses traditional materials such as wood and thatch.  The hotel’s Sarunity spa will offer water-based therapies that incorporate natural ingredients like seaweed.  Snorkeling and diving are offered through the resort, but there are also land-based activities, such as safaris and game drives. 

Insider Tip: Guests looking for an adrenaline rush can sky dive – barefoot – over the Indian Ocean if interested.
