Howdy! Are in need of a vacation but don’t want to spend vacation prices? What if I told you, you can take a daycation. A daycation is simply a vacation where you are able to take advantage of a hotel’s amenities without staying over night. If you’ve ever taken a cruise and purchased a resort day pass, you know how incredible this can be. Your daycation can be a simple day of fun in your own hometown, or an additional day of rest and relaxation while you are on vacation.
