What's Making Money at Top Hotels and Resorts These Days? Honey
Tours.com's Travel-Intel Follows the Buzz
(firmenpresse) - SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 08/06/12 -- Hotels from Paris and Beijing to the rooftops of New York and San Francisco are benefitting from the buzz of beekeeping owing to a new trend in hotel attractions and amenities putting money on the honey at top properties.

Travel-Intel looks at how anyone can have his or her own private island at Musha Cay with buyouts that run $54,000 a night. Musha Cay is a member of the exclusive collection of resorts.
