How To Plan The Perfect Staycation In Hyderabad
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines a “staycation” as “a vacation spent at home or nearby”.
A rather bland definition that doesn’t do justice to how relaxing and memorable it can be. A staycation well-spent requires the proper planning and preparation, and if Hyderabad is the address you call your abode, then you shall soon find a big chunk of that work taken care of.
When it comes to vacationing abroad there’s no arguments over whether planning is necessary or not, but for a vacation in one’s own hometown, there are some. After all, it is a familiar place and deciding what to do in the spur of the moment doesn’t sound all that hard.
Yet contrary to that belief, there are four reasons why one should plan a staycation:
- Last-minute decisions during a staycation ends up turning the entire ordeal into just scrambling for things to do.
- Events and activities might be fully booked if all is left to decide on a whim.
- Better deals might be available when booking in advance.
- Planning allows the securing of reservations for the desired experiences.
And while staycations can be a solo vacation at home, they can also be one where the entire family gets to take a break together.
With that said, here are what must be kept in mind when planning a staycation:
What To Get Out Of It
The first and foremost question to be addressed is, “What do I want to get out of the staycation?”
That “I” here extends to the family, when it is a family staycation. And what every single family member might want from it, will need to be taken into account.
A list of such wants is:
- Relaxing and recharging,
- Exploring (e.g cafes, mystery rooms, rock climbing gyms),
- Indulgence (e.g shopping sprees, a cheat meal week),
- Gaming,
- Self-discovery (e.g finding new hobbies)
There is plenty that is possible in Hyderabad. With places and events that might come as a surprise to even the natives of the city.
But most importantly, when planning for what the staycation will entail, scheduling activities as per the interest of every family member is critical.
Activities That Are Possible
But that may still not be enough information on how to do it right, given the duration of the staycation. Which brings in a requirement of simpler, easier alternatives.
That’s when Google searches for “ideas” begin. And examples of what can be done and how they can be done are actively looked for.
For starters, a spa day can be something quite enjoyable. Either by visiting a spa or booking someone to do the face masks, manicures, pedicures, body massages and whatnot.
Then there’s the activities where the entire family can take part:
- Board Game nights,
- Gaming nights (If the kids hate board games, join them in what they do enjoy. Grab a controller, a tablet, whatever the required platform),
- Baking or cooking together,
- Going on long scenic drives,
- Visits to museums, water parks, or just a local park.
The ideas are endless, and so is the list of ways to relax and bond.
Self-Care Matters
A crucial piece of a staycation well-spent is treating oneself and being guilt-free about it. Whether that means desserts every day, going on daily shopping sprees, staying away from the usual strenuous workout routines, sleeping until noon or letting yourself loose doing whatever you don’t let yourself do much of.
As much as a staycation is a golden opportunity for bonding with family, it is just as important to make some time for self-care during it.
But with all that said, no amount of scheduling of activities or blocking off time to catch up on additional sleep will be of any good if one doesn’t disconnect from everything else properly.
Setting Slack and Microsoft Teams to silent, and shutting down email pop-up notifications are a must. And so is booking a rental like a good service apartment for the staycation so any interrupting calls or messages that come, can be given the reply that you are away.
But it isn’t just for that reason that you ought to be booking a service apartment nearby. A staycation would be quite hard to do at home without giving into the routine, and without forgetting all about the plans and getting lost in the addiction that is social media.
The Right Accommodation
There’s one thing that sits at the centre of the entire staycation experience. And that is booking the right service apartment in your city to really get into the holiday spirit.
