As travel restrictions continue to ease and states reopen restaurants, retail and entertainment venues, the tourism industry is eager for a boost. Though many people are yearning for a vacation after months of being cooped up inside, some are still hesitant to travel, and hotels are noticing. To sweeten the deal, hotels across the country are offering unique packages that allow guests to enjoy the luxury of the hotel property, while still being able to ‘work-from-home’ or assist their kids with virtual learning. While there are definitely added perks, some of the limited time offers will also put money back in your pocket, which is an incentive we can all get behind.
Best Western
Best Western is helping travelers make the most of every dollar through their latest campaign “Hit the Road with Best Western”.

The travel card is accepted at more than 100 countries and territories worldwide and can be purchased in a variety of denominations. For details on expiration and use, visit Best Western.
Club Wyndham
With many students opting for virtual school this year, Club Wyndham decided to launch the “Back to School, Back to Your Bucket List” vacation package to encourage families to start distance learning from new destinations.
The package will save families up to 30% at all-suite resorts located near family-friendly destinations that offer historical sites or outdoor activities once the school day is over. In addition to the special rate, families will receive upgraded Wi-Fi, a Club Wyndham backpack filled with school supplies and for the parents, noise canceling headphones and a bottle of wine.

MGM Resorts (Bellagio Las Vegas & ARIA Las Vegas)
For those who have been working from home for the last 6 months, this deal is for you. MGM launched three different “Viva Las Office” packages to allow remote workers the opportunity to take their office to Sin City.

Depending on the package you choose, amenities include daily food and drink credits, access to a private pool, free massage and discounts for helicopter and Jeep tours.
