'''Quite the Vacation Resort''' is an exclusive song found on the [[Halo Wars Bonus DVD|''Halo Wars'' Bonus DVD]]. It runs for 2 minutes and 7 seconds.  


==Overview==
It can be heard in the scene when Professor Anders explains to Captain Cutter that the planet Arcadia was somehow linked to the artifact they found, and when at the same time a distress call was sent to them from Arcadia, requesting military assistance for evacuating civilians.  
The track opens with a drumroll, with strings, brass, and woodwinds playing a suspenseful melody. Piano repeats the melody, answered by strings and brass. Brass cuts in with a flowing melody, answered by the other instruments. Strings repeat their melodies resting. Low strings enter with a heavy melody, accompanied by brass and percussion. High strings join in, playing a flowing melody, echoed by brass. The instruments pause briefly, with synthesizers playing in ambiance. Strings return briefly before ambiance returns again. Strings play a series of short notes before male vocals with the first phrase of the Gregorian chant from the ''[[Halo Theme]]''. The track ends in a climax with strings and vocals.
