Travel Tips

Booking a family vacation, weekend trip or extended stay through a bundle site is not a new concept. We have booked on Orbitz, Expedia, Kayak, Priceline and countless other sites for years, but booking specifically through a favorite luxury hotel site with a flight option included, this may be the start of a new travel trend.

 

Bundle your hotel accommodations and flights with Omni Hotels & Resorts without leaving the site. Thanks to a new collaboration with Expedia, Omni now offers a full-service travel site, Vacations by Omni, complete with luxury hotel stays across nearly all 60 of Omni’s resort locations in North America alone. Peruse the best stay and flight for your family all in one place.

The new collaboration and first of its kind is designed to save travelers time and money by bundling vacation packages from the essentials like flight and hotel to added features like customizable rooms and preferences. For families with particular tastes, special needs and everything in between, booking with one site in one place can simplify the process while cutting unnecessary costs and headaches.

 

Omni regulars and members of the loyalty program, Select Guest, are already well aware of the luxury resort benefits. Redeem benefits upon booking and enjoy free stays, room upgrades and special beverage packages along with your loyalty membership.

 

Booking direct can be a lifesaver for families on the go and can add a sense of calm to your travel experience. Traveling families know having peace of mind while and after booking your family trip can be a game changer.

 

Once everything is planned and prepared together in one place, it’s helpful to know you have your trip itinerary and important information all in one place — easing you and the family through take-off and landing. You can cut out some of the shopping around as well, as most travelers booking direct with Vacations by Omni save around 25 percent.

Rhode Island, home to some of America’s most beautiful landscapes, is the perfect place to head each fall to see nature at its best.
