The days of vacationing might seem like a distant thing of the past. We’ll get back to our busy, bustling and vacationing lives soon. But, in the meantime, a staycation done right can help you to relax and rejuvenate right at home. And bonus, no driving, no packing and no extra laundry!
PLANNING YOUR STAYCATION
You can create a relaxing staycation with a few key planning tips:
Stray from your regular routine: To enjoy the feelings of rejuvenation and relaxation you have to change your daily routine. Turn off your computer, put away your phone, shut off the TV and get outside!
Update your yard and pool: Simple updates to your yard, poolscape and/or pool will make you feel like you’ve transported yourself into a whole new place. From adding gardens and decks to upgrading to a full outdoor kitchen – your budget is the limit. And while we’re updating the deck, give your pool a little love too! Lighting is an effective way to incorporate some dramatic scenery into your backyard. You can even install smart technology to control your pool’s accessories from your smartphone.
Update your seating: Making sure you have the perfect location to relax is key for a staycation. Hammocks, lounge chairs and meditation areas are all great ideas. Make sure to pick something you’ll love and you’ll feel relaxed on!
Entertain the kids: Make sure to have plenty of fun pool toys and games for kids to enjoy and always follow pool safety rules! Relax while they play.
