Make the Most of your Next Business + Leisure Trip

The Meadowmere Resort is the perfect spot for your next Business + Leisure Trip.

With vaccination rates rising in the U.S., many of us are tentatively peeling ourselves off the couch and feeling cautiously optimistic about traveling again. Business travel is already picking up, and many travelers are turning those trips into mini-vacations. Whether you’re traveling solo or are looking to bring your family along, bleisure (business + leisure) trips are turning into one of the biggest travel trends of 2021.

It’s a genius move, really. Why not extend your business trip a few extra days to get quality time with yourself or your favorite people? It’s cost-effective, and no one has to miss a thing at work or with school.

Here’s how to make the most out of any bleisure trip:

1. Find the right space.

Assess the number of people coming with you, and be honest about what it will take to be comfortable at the right price point. Single room options are great if you want a cozy, sleepover vibe. Or, you may want to find a place that has divided rooms like our family-friendly suites so you and the kids have space to work, do school, and get a good night’s rest.

2. Make sure you have WiFi.

A good WiFi connection can make all the difference, and being able to access it outside the room is a huge plus. At Meadowmere, you can connect to our WiFi anywhere in the resort, so no one in the family has to miss a beat when it comes to work or school.

3. Look at booking weekdays.

Extend your stay into the week so you get the benefit of a less busy environment and more cost-effective stay.

4. Make the most of onsite amenities.

Sure you’re sleeping well, but are you getting the most out of the hotel? Having tons of activities within arm reach can be a blessing when it comes to having a relaxing family trip. Keep your eyes peeled for:

• Spa Onsite or Nearby:
  • You should never feel guilty about treating yourself to a massage. Not only can it improve blood flow and relieve the tension we’ve all felt this year, it’s been shown to improve mood. Treating yourself or your significant other to a massage is a must for one of your first trips away.

• Pools:
  • Get the kids out of the room to burn off some energy and have some fun. Who knows, maybe you’ll have some fun, too! We have indoor and outdoor pools, a whirlpool and jacuzzi.
    
• Game room and arcade:
  • What’s better than a game room to entertain the kiddos and get some space? This can be a game changer at a hotel. Here, we have pinball, air hockey, billiard, video games, and more!
    
• Grill area:
  • Whether you’re a frequent griller or not, it’s always so nice to be able to cook your own food while you’re away. Read more about our gas grills and patio seating.
    
• Movie room:
  • These are rare finds, but so fun when you can watch a movie in stadium seating and take in a show without having to leave the building. Check out our screening room set up.

5. Find a walkable place so you can have fun close to home.
