Plan a winter getaway

Cheryl Clemens | 02/25/09

It’s not too late to take advantage of the Family Value Winter Getaway package at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay in Cambridge.

For $99 a night Sunday through Friday and $149 on Saturdays, families can can take advantage of all the amenities on this 342-acre retreat on the Choptank River — including a number of complimentary or low-cost activities for kids. This includes roasting s’mores by the two-story, outdoor fireplace; bingo; “Amazing Race” family scavenger hunts; and double feature “Dive-In” movies, held at the resort’s heated, indoor swimming pool. For $5, guests can enjoy an afternoon treat at the make-your-own-sundae bar, and those seeking a quick round of golf can play a four hole loop for just $10 per person. The Stillwater Spa is offering 30-minute massages and facials, and a new teen spa menu features hair treatments, manicures and pedicures.

Culinary enthusiasts can glean recipe secrets during cooking demonstrations, held every Thursday through Sunday afternoon, kids can take part in cookie decorating and coffee fans can attend tasting classes conducted by Starbucks. Themed activities are planned for select weekends, and children ages 4 to 12 can sign up for Camp Hyatt Pirate’s Cove, which will be available by the hour exclusively this winter.

“Travelers are not only looking for great overnight rates, they’re also looking for low-cost ways for the whole family to have fun during the vacation,” said Fred Findlen, general manager of Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Resort. “The winter weekends are the resort’s way of providing a relaxing, value-filled getaway.”
