Hotels have been marketing to women for a while now, and spa vacations are selling well. So what are hoteliers preparing as vacations for groups of men? Mancations!
At the Wild Dunes Resort in Isle of Palms, S.C., the “Dudes on the Dunes” package includes a round of golf and an in-room poker game with snacks and beer from $1,250 per person for two nights. The Marquis Los Cabos Resort in Los Cabos, Mexico, includes surfing lessons, golf, poker, cigars, beer, chips and guacamole in its man-themed package from $490 a night.
Making bachelor parties an annual affair? Brilliant. But $1250 per person? For a poker game in your room? Is the hotel’s description leaving out some, err, entertainment that’s taking place in the room at that rate?
