Shell Vacations Hospitality's Hot Deals Blog Delivers Sizzling Family Travel Opportunities

Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) March 3, 2009 -- Shell Vacations Hospitality is proud to announce the launch of a new key component to its web site -- the Hot Deals Blog (http://www.shellhospitality.com/blog). Travelers seeking a resource for last-minute lodging bargains at Shell Hospitality’s 22 one-of-a-kind, all-seasons resorts will find stellar, last minute deals created for loyal, new and soon-to-be fans of Shell Hospitality’s condo rentals and expansive suite accommodations in diverse locations such as the beaches of Hawaii, the legendary links of Arizona, dynamic San Francisco, picturesque New England and so many more destinations suited for adult and family travelers.

Every week, Shell Hospitality will offer one bargain basement, lowest- rate-of- the- year sale at a resort or destination. Exclusive deals that range from $49 per night to 50% off savings are only offered on the Hot Deals Blog and cannot be booked anywhere else! Consumers will be encouraged to check back into the blog the following week to find the next of-the-moment-deal by visiting Shellhospitality.com/blog. Last minute deals are updated every Thursday night. Once the deal sells out, it is gone forever.

Currently, the Hot Deals blog features $89 per night rates on weekdays and $99 per night rates on weekends at The Donatello in the heart of San Francisco’s Union Square Shopping District, allowing guests to enjoy the most spacious accommodations in the city, each exquisitely decorated, and stunningly elegant as a home-away-from-home in one of the world’s finest cities.

•    Contests and Giveaways – Win Big by entering Shell Hospitality’s various contests and sweepstakes giveaways throughout the year.
