Starting at $299, Spend a Nick Weekend in Arizona with Dora and SpongeBob

If your kids are big fans of Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob SquarePants and Dora the Explorer, consider booking your very own Nick Weekend Getaway this year at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort & Spa in Tucson, Arizona.

Upon check-in, families will be greeted by a special Nickelodeon host who will debrief you on the myriad of slimy, Nick-themed activities that will be going on during the stay.  Kids will enjoy dance parties, arts 'n' crafts at the Nick Workshop, game nights and trivia shows. On Friday and Saturday evenings, Dive-In Movies will show kid-friendly Nickelodeon films and guests can enjoy complimentary Slime Slushies during the screening.

Plus, during the hot, dry Saturdays, there is no better way to spend time cooling down than with a Nickelodeon interactive poolside game show.  As contestants, kids will get messy with pies in the face and even the famous Nick- green slime!   Shows are offered twice daily at 1:30pm and 3:30pm.  After the competition is over, Dora and SpongeBob will hang around to give out autographs.

Of course, this is not the only opportunity to meet-n-greet your favorite Nick characters.  At the Saturday morning brunch, parents and kids not only get to enjoy a nice a meal, but it is the perfect photo opportunity.  This is not your ordinary breakfast experience – in addition to SpongeBob and Dora, the dining room is also packed with fun activities and music.

The package, which starts at $299/N, also includes a two-night stay and up to two children receive a special sleepover kit including a pillowcase and surprise Nick gift!  Available for weekend stays only (Friday through Sunday), the package is valid from March 5th through September 6th.

If the kids are celebrating a birthday during your stay, consider inquiring about the JW Marriot Birthday Party Special.  For $40 per person, the party includes non-alcoholic beverages, food and access to the pool.  Plus, if the party is booked on a Saturday, guests will be able to attend the Nick shows at no additional charge. Call 520/791-6130 for more information.

The kids will certainly be sad upon check-out, but to make the moment sweeter, arrange a “So-Long” from both Dora and SpongeBob.  Talk to the concierge before departure to guarantee that the characters will be there to wave goodbye to your little ones.
