Well, every resort will have a max price, a min price, one location, and many activities. So you can get away with three tables.
resorts      resort_activities  activities<
--------     ----------         ----------
resort_id*   resort_id          activity_id
name	     activity_id        description
location
This isn't too bad for a start. I personally recommend something like postgresql for this. DBD::CSV is good, but I don't know how it does with multi-table relations. You could really do all of this with one table instead of three, but your database wouldn't be 'normalized'. Look into the concept of 'normalization' before you design anything that needs to grow to any useful size.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
