That annual frenzy of bargain shopping over Thanksgiving weekend is not just for stores and online sellers. Hotels get in on the act, too, and family travelers can make big savings on future travels by reserving during Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.

 

From Colorado’s Rocky Mountains to New Hampshire’s White Mountains to the beaches of the Caribbean, these hotels and resorts offer Black Friday savings as high as 50 percent.

 

On 4 oceanfront acres along famous Grace Bay Beach in Turks & Caicos, The Regent Grand is an all-suite resort with family-friendly features like full kitchens, ample living and dining areas, and furnished balconies or terraces. Enter code BlackFriday2025 to get 30 percent off rates on all suite types from Nov. 7 to Dec. 2 for stays until April 30, 2026.

 

The same code will score savings at Half Moon, in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Save 35 percent with three or more nights in Founders Cove or Eclipse, and 20 percent with three nights or longer in Legacy Villa. The offers are good on stays through Nov. 14, 2026.

 

In New Hampshire’s White Mountains, The Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa commands a panoramic view of snow-covered mountains along with ice skating, sleigh rides and cross-country skiing in the winter, and golf and hiking in the summer. Save 50 percent on stays throughout 2026. The booking code can be found on the resort’s Facebook page.

 

In the Rockies, Aspen Meadows Resort in Colorado offers a complimentary third night for stays through July 31, 2026, if you book with the BlackFriday2025 code.

 

In Charleston, South Carolina, both Hotel Bennett and The Inn at Middleton Place offer savings of up to 35 percent on stays of three or more nights (20 percent off two nights) through Aug. 31, 2026. The same rate is available at Salamander Middleburg, in Middleburg, Virginia. Use BlackFriday2025 code and book by Dec. 6.

 

During its Black Friday to Travel Tuesday sale, Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa celebrates its 45th anniversary by offering guests a 45 percent discount for stays of five nights or more between Jan. 21 and September 30, 2026. Use code BF2025 when reserving.

 

Most of these properties have blackout dates on rooms reserved during the sale, usually over holiday periods. Also, be sure to check the sale period, as most offers end Dec. 2.
