Marriott launches ‘Deal of the Day’, exclusively on Twitter

June 02, 2009 | Hospitality Industry

For the next two weeks, Marriott is offering summer savings with its new "Deal of the Day" - up to 60 percent off leisure rates. Marriott's Deal of the Day rates and packages can be found exclusively on the company's Twitter feed and website.

Starting today, Marriott will list one new “Deal” each day, for 24 hours, only at resorts in the Caribbean, Hawaii and California. New deals will be announced daily at 7 am EDT, Monday through Friday, with the last deal announced June 12.

Today’s inaugural Deal of the Day is from the Grand Cayman Marriott Beach Resort. Guests can book a room with a private balcony for $120 per night—a 55 percent discount—for stays of three nights or more through July 31, 2009. The resort, situated on the world-famous Seven Mile Beach, also features a serene turtle lagoon and tropical gardens with walkways and private seating areas. Guests can enjoy the on-site spa and choose from four restaurants. To book, visit http://www.Marriottdealoftheday.com. Check back in less than 24 hours for the next vacation Deal of the Day.

Discounts will vary each day and by resort, which include the Marriott(R) Hotels & Resorts, JW Marriott(R) Hotels & Resorts and Renaissance(R) Hotels & Resorts brands. For example, you may find:

- a discount on the daily room rate; or
- free nights based on a minimum length of stay; and
- free services and amenities included as well, such as free breakfast.

Marriott is not revealing the exact resorts until their particular Deal of the Day is announced. However, the majority of the resorts will be beach locations. All will offer spa services and swimming pools on site. Recreational activities, such as golf, will be located at the resort or nearby. Each resort will feature fine dining options.

Remember to check Twitter.com/marriottintl or Marriottdealoftheday.com daily because the deeply discounted rates will only be available for 24 hours.
