Staycation Paradise at The Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center!
The newest ticket this vacation season, during these tight economic times is the increasingly popular Staycation vacations. What is a Staycation? Well, a Staycation is a vacation taken locally, a quick getaway, right in your own hometown/state. You actually take time off from work and enjoy the local attractions of your own city; you don’t just stay at home and sleep late. For MD/DC/VA residents, I have the perfect location for a Staycation. The National Harbor in Prince Georges County, Maryland is a perfect local destination for a Staycation. Particularly the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center.
The Gaylord National Resort is the anchor resort of the new 300 acre National Harbor development. The resort features 2,000 luxurious guest rooms; four fabulous signature restaurants, a 20,000 square foot spa and Pose Ultra Lounge, the hottest nightclub outside of Miami (please try the Dreamsicle at the InFusion Bar).
The Gaylord (as it is affectionately called) is filled with all the luxurious amenities travelers expect (32 inch LCD televisions, high speed internet, oversized ceramic tiled showers and soaking tubs, king/queen size beds available). Balconies in the luxury appointed guest rooms open to reveal spectacular views of the Potomac Riverfront, Maryland’s Hillside and the resorts’ breathtaking atrium.
Guests can sample delectable delights from one of the resorts’ four signature restaurants. Old Hickory Steakhouse (an outstanding steakhouse featuring a unique cheese presentation that can accompany your choice steak), Moon Bay Coastal Cuisine (seafood lovers enjoy a wharf side bar & lounge), Pienza Italian Market (six market inspired stations featuring excellent Italian food & deserts) and National Pastime (the official sports bar of the Washington Nationals).
The Gaylord is a true vacation away from home. You actually feel like you are in another city like Miami or San Francisco. If you care to venture outside the resort complex, another spectacular world awaits. The National Harbor features art galleries, specialty shops and a treasure trove of restaurants. Bowie, Maryland favorite Grace’s will be opening another location in November alongside, Ketchup, Rosa Mexicano and McCormick & Schmick’s. The National Harbor also hosts FREE Friday night summer concerts (from 7-9pm), American Market (featuring unique local vendors) on Saturday’s, the SeaDog speed boat experience (love it!), the Alexandria – National Harbor Water Taxi and a host of fun filled activities for families, singles and couples. Kids can even play on ‘The Awakening’ statue that was once the centerpiece of DC’s Hanes Point. Food lovers get ready, ‘The First Annual Taste of Maryland’ is coming September 20th & 21st!
