Meet Our #Its5pmAtOpalContest Finalists

No vacation is complete without a toast – to your health, to an amazing vacation, to spending time with those you care about most. That’s why we asked Opal guests to share their favorite libation photos at an Opal resort using the hashtag #Its5pmAtOpalContest captioning what they were toasting to. After eyeballing all of the thirst-quenching photos, we narrowed it down to these eye-catching finalists. Cheers to a chance at winning a three-night stay!
