2015 Summer Staycation Guide
June 17, 2015 by Stephanie
Looking for a cost-effective way to experience a mini summer vacation in Tucson? Consider a STAYCATION at a local resort!
With temperatures soaring, most of the area resorts offer HOT deals on rooms. You can cool off at the pool, try your hand at some tennis, swing your clubs at a golf course, enjoy a margarita with your spouse, and/or have a blast at specially-themed summer activities for the whole family. Unfortunately, Arizona resorts are unable to offer beachfront property. ;)
