Pet-Friendly Hotels For A Staycation With Your Furry Friend
Tomorrow, August 26 is National Dog Day, a day to give our irresistibly cute bundles of unconditional love an extra treat or a super long belly rub. For those wanting to kick the celebration up a notch, here's a list of dog-friendly hotels for a staycation with Fido's happiness in mind.
This boutique hotel comes with its own pet-lover hashtag (#THesisPetLife)! For doggies of all sizes, the property features comfortable beds and cute bowls by Paco & Lucia as well as tasty treats by local bakery, Bullie Bites. Small grassy areas along the hotel grounds and an expansive park right across the street make it super pet-friendly. Catch some Vitamin D with your furry friend at the sun-filled rooftop pool or grab a bite at the poolside bar or the exceptional on-site restaurants — Mamey and Orno, both under the helm of James Beard nominee Chef Niven Patel.
Talk about a warm welcome! Pets checking into this downtown property receive a special "Doggy Bag" filled with an assortment of treats and toys. Once in the room, pups can relax on a plush dog bed and hydrate using a branded dog bowl. Doggies even get a curated turndown service which includes an evening bedside treat. Please note there is a $50 pet fee, per pet and a 65-pound weight restriction.
There's no reason your favorite pooch should miss out on the fun! Book a Sandy Paws Package at this exclusive South Of Fifth Miami hotel and your pet guest will receive a portable water bowl, dog treat, dog toy, doggy bags, and a clip-on doggy bag dispenser. Dog owners get a (human) treat too along with a waived pet fee of $150 for the length of the stay. The property's recent $3.8 million renovations makes it tempting to settle in for a while!
The Marker Key West Harbor Resort
No need to leave anyone behind if you're headed to the Keys. Upon arrival, pets get a customized welcome bag loaded with toys, treats, and a Marker Key West pet tag. A bottle of champagne awaits as well so you can enjoy some bubbles while your four-legged friend settles in. During their stay pets are treated to puppy turndown service, and, upon request, walks along Smathers Beach, a spa session at Salty Paws pet spa and even a beautiful dinner under the stars with a multicourse dog food menu. The phrase “doggie paddle” takes on new meaning when you embark on an excursion with Lazy Dog. The adventure company welcomes four-legged adventurers on its paddleboards, kayaks and pontoon boats. To finish out the trip, take in Key West’s magnificent sunset with your pooch.
