A resort can be a multipurpose tourism Place - one that offers food, lodgings, and accomidations in a single, privately operated place

Tokyo Disneyland resort is a good example. 

As well as those carribbian (sp) beach-spa-amusement park- hotel places like "sandals" and what not. 

It is not a town. A town is made up of many resorts (like aspen) .

Maybe this is a BE vs AE thing.
