Midweek Getaways: The best way to escape for the moment
Everyone loves humpday: you’re halfway through the week, and the weekend is within reach. But why wait? Book a midweek getaway and spend some time during the week away from your routine at Odyssey Resorts.
No crowds, no problem
One of the best-kept secrets of travel is that midweek trips offer a completely different experience than weekend getaways. Popular trails, scenic overlooks, and charming local spots are often overrun on Saturdays and Sundays. But on a Wednesday? Not so much. You’ll find more room to breathe, explore, and unwind at your own pace.
More value, more flexibility
Traveling midweek isn’t just about fewer crowds—it’s also about getting the most out of your stay. Midweek lodging rates are often lower at Odyssey Resorts, allowing you to enjoy luxury accommodations, spa treatments, and guided activities with ease. Plus, with more availability at top dining spots and popular attractions, you can savor every moment without the rush (or reservations).
Perfect for every traveler
Whether you’re a solo adventurer craving solitude, a couple looking for a romantic escape, or retirees seeking a quiet retreat, midweek travel caters to your needs. Picture yourself hiking through golden autumn leaves, snowshoeing across pristine winter trails, enjoying the first green of spring, or soaking up the summer sun on a deck with a lake view—all without the weekend background noise.
Save your PTO days
Switch the office with a cozy spot surrounded by breathtaking nature and make your midweek getaway a workation.
