AMENITY SERVICES - Advertorial
Well-traveled vacationing guests to Northwest Florida know a secret that allows them to enjoy more fulfilling vacations time and again. Thankfully, it's a secret they're willing to share.


Select property management companies from Pensacola to St. Augustine have embraced 'amenity programs' from Amenity Services, Inc. - a company that provides guests with complimentary rounds of championship golf, deep sea fishing excursions, tickets to state-of-the-art water parks, admission to adventure parks, dolphin-watch cruises, children's fishing adventures, DVD rentals, and more, inclusive in their stay. These amenities are available to guests every day of their stay and are quickly becoming the determining factor for guests vacationing in the region.

"The value of this program is unparalleled," says Darrell Blanton, president and CEO of Amenity Services, Inc., "We know that guests often ask the front desk staff what the best things to do and see in an area. With our program, the front desk hands them their amenity packet and tells them, 'Not only are these the best things to do, they're free to you as our guest. Thank you for staying with us.' The guest is thrilled and becomes a loyal customer of that property. Some of our guests actually book their golf rounds as they are driving into town and are on the links before they even put their luggage in their room!" laughs Blanton.
The company's new website, www.getmorevacations.com, allows travelers to choose their destination and then select the corresponding property that features the amenities they would most like to take advantage of on their vacation. Over 25 property companies participate in the program, representing thousands of properties for guests to choose from.

"When the cost of lodging is about the same, why not take advantage of the one that allows you to enjoy the things that make vacation memories?" asks Blanton. "Seeing a dolphin pod for the first time with your kids makes memories, discounts and coupons do not." www.getmorevacations.com
