度假酒店促销 赠送怀孕优惠券

A luxury resort on the Dutch Caribbean island of Aruba is offering amorous couples a discount of around £180 on a future booking – if they conceive a child during their holiday.

Management at the Westin Resort (www.westinaruba.com), located in Palm Beach on the island’s northern coastline, have devised the scheme in an effort to attract would-be mothers and fathers.

Couples will be rewarded with a $300 ‘Conception Credit’ if they can prove that their baby was conceived while they were staying at the hotel.

A doctor’s note confirming that the likely conception date coincided with the couple’s stay will be accepted as evidence, according to a spokesperson for the resort.

The offer is open to any guests staying at the hotel before December 18, 2009.

Rooms at the Westin Resort start at around $200 (£120) a night, so couples can claim at least one nights’ complimentary accommodation should they succeed in taking up the offer.

Last month, the budget hotel company Premier Inn launched another promotion aimed at happy couples – the £58 honeymoon.

The offer includes a bottle of Asda sparkling wine, a hamper of Boots spa treatments, a punnet of strawberries or a box of chocolates and his and hers nightwear by Primark.
