Memorial Day weekend is only a few days away and some of you have forgotten to make plans, or perhaps we just thought we couldn’t afford to get away. Well, think again! We’ve all earned the right to kick up our heels, take a load off, and enjoy this opportunity for some rest and relaxation.
I gathered up some insider getaway tips to help all you last minute planners so that you, too, can have the memorable (and affordable) getaway you deserve. Happy Memorial Day!
COUPLES
Romantic Hotel Escape
It’s time to get a room, lovebirds! But seriously, Hoteltonight is an app that sells unbooked hotel rooms at remarkably discounted prices towards the end of the day. Pick the destination city of your dreams, have a romantic day exploring the city, and then, in the final hours, use their app to check into an extravagant room for nearly half the price– the ultimate late night sexy rendezvous.
Railroad Rendezvous
Take a round-trip, three day expedition through the American scenic landscape on a romantic railroad adventure. Go see The Grand Canyon, The Golden Gate Bridge, or Niagara Falls. Regardless of where you are located in the United States, Amtrak offers romantic rendezvous’ to scenic hotspots equipped with sleeper cars and dining facilities. Save $150 per couple if you book anytime before June 3oth.
FRIENDS
The Great Outdoors
Pack the cooler, the s’mores, the hot dogs, and head out with a group of pals into the great outdoors. All you need is a tent and the stars in the sky to find some instant luxurious leisure–and a reservation of course: Score the best last minute reservations at gocampingamerica.
Host Your Own Outdoor Movie Night
Upgrade your standard Memorial Day BBQ to an outdoor movie screening spectacular. Once the sun sets, grab some blankets, and use a projector or an old TV, pop some popcorn, and host the best double-feature your friends have ever seen–and this one’s on the house.
FAMILY
Backyard Water Park Adventure
Let the summer games begin! Skip those pricey theme park tickets and create your very own backyard waterpark. Head to your local Costco and purchase every wonderful water toy imaginable: A giant slip ‘n slide, water guns, a kiddie pool filled with water balloons, and water balloon sling shots. Set up the mayhem on a grass lawn, throw on you’re bathing suit, and get down to business. For extra adult fun, pack a giant cooler with Coronas and limes, invite your favorite grown-ups, and let the good times roll.
