In the event you've reserved a room at a U.S. hotel with a credit card and have a confirmation number, but your hotel has no room for you when you arrive, you can get the quoted rate of the room as Cash Back up to $500.00 a year! Even if they put you up at another hotel! Use the "Make a Claim" link below to see the full terms and conditions for this benefit.

Luxury Serviced Apartments Vs Hotels: The Top 5 Reasons To Stay At Luxury Serviced Apartments

Are you a traveller? If so, take a look at the top 5 reasons to skip the hotel and opt for a luxury serviced apartment.

1. A Home Away from Home – Luxury serviced apartments, also known as aparthotels, corporate housing and extended stay hotels offer travellers somewhere to live rather than just a place to stay. Hotels are, for the most part, impersonal in feel but a luxury serviced apartment becomes a home - making for a more enjoyable stay.

2. Lifestyle Advantages, Freedom, and More Space – A hotel room can cramp your style but a luxury serviced apartment lets you entertain the way you want to. It’s just like having your own space and it makes meetings, events, and having family over easier (especially if you are relocating) with separate spaces for living, sleeping, eating, relaxing, and working.

3. Ideal for Business Travellers – For visitors who are relocating, working on a contract, executives on a short visit or colleagues travelling together, a luxury serviced apartment is perfect. Avoiding the “hotel feel” and enjoying amenities such as broadband, flat panel TV, digital or cable channels and a fully fitted kitchen at an all-inclusive price, business travellers experience an exceptional stay.

4. Save Money – Luxury serviced apartments are a great economic as well as lifestyle decision. Rates are per apartment and not per person so there can be significant financial savings from sharing with colleagues. Luxury serviced apartments feature fully equipped kitchens – obviating the need to eat out all the time.

5. The Feel Good Factor – This can be a huge benefit during relocation. The first few weeks or months in a new country can be difficult and disorienting. A serviced apartment with the space and amenities of home to smooth that adjustment is increasingly recognised as an enlightened investment that pays back in motivation and effectiveness.

Luxury serviced apartments are growing in popularity. Listed above are just some major reasons why you should choose a luxury serviced apartments over a hotel for your business and leisure travels.

Condominium Hotels Gain Popularity

You can spend a vacation, a season-or the rest of your life-in the lush desert of Southern Arizona and reap the benefits of a resort residence at the same time.

You can live in one resort, with all of the resort amenities, year round or use as a vacation home. If you choose, you have the opportunity to place your suite in a rental program. This is a relatively new concept in vacation home ownership that's becoming more popular at desirable destinations across the country. Resort residences can be found in major cities and at resorts.

The resort is in Green Valley, Arizona, 20 minutes south of Tucson, in a scenic area at the base of the Santa Rita Mountains. It looks over the Canoa Ranch Golf Course, a par-72 championship course designed by Lee Schmidt and Brian Hurley. The Torres Blancas golf course, designed by Lee Trevino, is close by. Every resident of Canoa Ranch Resort Condominiums enjoys preferred rates and priority tee times at both courses without ever having to purchase a golf membership.

The condominiums are clusters of three-story Santa Barbara-style buildings, each housing two-bedroom suites. The homes range from 1,500 to 1,726 square feet depending on the three available floor plans.

Each residence is upgraded, completely furnished and professionally decorated, including granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Everything is included, from furniture to flat screen digital televisions to dishes and kitchen appliances. The homes have high-speed Internet access, voice over IP phones and premium cable television. All you need to bring are your clothes, your laptop and your golf clubs. Housekeeping services are optional.

The Grill on the Green restaurant is part of the Canoa Ranch Golf Course; a pool and outdoor patio are part of the amenities. The community of Green Valley provides shopping, restaurants and retail services. The Tucson International Airport is less than 30 minutes away.

Imagine bright clear night skies, mountain vistas and pleasant weather year round in your own resort residence in Arizona. The hotel is part of the Wyndham Hotel & Resorts and is managed by Aimbridge Hospitality. Fairfield Homes, Inc., a long-time Arizona company, is the developer.

More and more Americans are enjoying the high life in the high desert at resort-condominium combinations.
