daycation noun [C]
/deɪ.ˈkeɪ.ʃən/
a day trip, usually to a hotel or similar resort, where you use the facilities for the day then go home at night
As the name implies, a daycation is about getting away from your hectic life and enjoying all the amenities of a real vacation without all the extra travel or expenses. The service is growing in popularity in cities like Miami where luxury pools and spas are a staple at just about every beachside hotel.

Daycation is a mistrious world. I love this world very much.
I LIKE THESE NEW WORDS: I WOULD LIKE TO ADD IN CAMBRIDGE DICTIONARY: I USE AND REFER FOR ACCURATE MENAING TO ENGLISH WORDS.
Nice… WE need one
Bthe frirst and laast
Some hotels in Japan already have microstay and it’s called “day use.” It’s probably a way to increase hotel’s occupancy rate and revenue.
Is is the same meaning as staycation?
great!we need it
AGREE
that’s great
Seems like we have a lot of new words to learn.
Jobbymoon i think the best word i have learnt today in dictionary. I like this word because i am about to resign from current organisation and i will have some holiday before starting a new job.
