We had the chance to treat ourselves yesterday to a night at the Fairmont Resort in Scottsdale. I’d like to stay we’re regulars at places that charge $380 a night, but truth is, this was a real treat. We call it our Posh Day… our Irish friends use the word “posh” at times like this. I like the sound of it.
We earned the free room by booking 10 nights with www.hotels.com… they’ve since changed their policy, so your free room has to be closer in value to your ten paid rooms. Fortunately, we’re cashing in on the more generous system… a Casita room with a fireplace, patio and enormous bathroom… the bathroom is probably bigger than the whole RV.
Last night we wandered into the Gold Lounge and enjoyed some drinks and snacks. Then spent the evening splashing around the hot tub and pool and lounging by the fire pit. This morning we stopped by the Gold Lounge again, but were told our room didn’t “qualify” us for the lounge (guess it’s good we didn’t ask last night), but the concierge was quick to tell us about the club and then invite us to enjoy the complimentary breakfast. Yes! Free breakfast!
Now, we head back to the RV and reality.
