The special rate is valid for select stay dates, Monday–Thursday, Aug. 4–Dec. 15. The bulk of the $84 per night room rates are on offer post-Labor Day. Use promo code 84DEGREES. The rate is non-refundable and not valid Friday–Sunday, or during bank or school holiday periods.

 

There’s also a Flex Trip option available. At an additional $15, with a starting price of $99/night, families have more flexibility to cancel their trip without fees until midnight two days prior to arrival date. For this option, use promo code 84FLEX. Similar conditions to the 84DEGREES promo apply.
