Hitting the Road for the Holidays
Traditions are a big part of the holiday season. You can usually look forward to a gathering with family and friends to savor delicious food, eggnog and delectable desserts while sharing stories of days gone by. But, what if you decided to take your holiday revelry on the road this year?
While you’re leaving familiar rituals behind, there are some advantages to a bed and breakfast holiday getaway. Not only will you still be able to partake in joyous celebrations, but also enjoy some R&R. You can focus on the beautifully decorated shops from your horse-drawn carriage ride or decide to stay in your pajamas and sample sweet treats while others take care of the preparations. If the brisk air and arriving snow has you running for the hills, turn around and make your way to the warmth of Florida. At the Amelia Island Williams House located on Amelia Island, you’ll get to admire the inn’s holiday décor before taking a horse-drawn carriage ride through historic streets lit up in twinkling lights.

Choosing to stay at the Williams House provides entree into the world of Select Registry, a group of the best Inns in the country. We have been members since 2006 and provide the excellent quality and high standards required to remain a member of this special group. Every guest at the Williams House receives a Select Registry guidebook and registration information for joining their frequent stay loyalty program. With more than three hundred of the best Inns throughout the US as members, future stays can be assured at the same quality and dedicated service experienced at the Williams House. All Inns within Select Registry submit to the Secret Sleeper program than insures quality and high standards through independent unnounced inspections that create the highest level of confidence for lodging consumers . You can learn more at www.selectregistry.com and see for yourself at their Select Difference video. We feel priveledged to be part of this unique group and enjoy acquainting guests with the loyalty program.
Here’s how it works….
Each night you stay with a select registry property earns one Golden Quill. When you have stayed twelve times you receive a gift certificate for $100 from Select Registry that can be redeemed at any SR member Inn in North America. As a special bonus they recently added the opportunity to receive one Golden Quill free when you sign up for the Golden Quill Rewards through their Facebook page after your first stay. Previous stays can also be confirmed and utilized toward the 12 Golden Quills. If you are not a facebook user just sign up for the loyalty program after your first stay on the Select Registry website.
Feel free to tell your facebook friends about this great program and see if they “poke” you for letting them know. Once you create your account start accumulating your stays at SR properties..and of course we reccommend you start here at the Williams House! This is just one more perk for choosing us and represents our promise to provide an excellent stay experience.
