b.
 
санаторийsanatorium
А санаторий is closest to what would be called a rest home. People go there more for reasons of health than for recreation — for mud baths, mineral waters, and the like. Those who require special medical care are also sent to a sanatorium, usually no less than for 26 days.
 
дом отдыха house of rest
А дом отдыха is not what is meant by a rest home, nor is it really comparable to our resorts. One does not go there for reasons of health; one is sent there on vacation as a reward for having done a good job. It differs from a resort in that activities are regulated: meals, exercise and rest periods and bedtime all take place at specified times. А дом отдыха is usually attended for 12 or 24 days.
 
курортspa, resort
А курорт is any region where the climate, beaches, mineral waters, or any physical aspect of the area is thought to be conducive to good health- The дом отдыха or санаторий is often located at а курорт.
 
пансионат(resort) hotel
А пансионат has rooms and a dining hall or cooking facilities. It is attended by entire families and is in a location conducive to rest and recreation, often with оборудование на прокат (equipment, such as rowboats, for rent).
 
турбаза (туристская база)tourist base

путёвка

pass to a sanatorium, rest home, tourist trip, etc

The путевка provides one with the right to stay at а санаторий, дом отдыха, пансионат, or турбаза at varying rates— sometimes totally free, more often at a reduced rate, or also at full price.
 
дачаcountry house, summer house
The word дача describes more the use to which a house is put rather than what the house looks like. It can range from a peasant hut to a rather large structure, some even tinged with former elegance- It is located in the country but is usually not far from a large city.
