This week, we welcome Niagara locals at our hotel during the annual Sleep Cheap Charities Reap event.

The Americana Resort was featured in an article that appeared in the Niagara Falls Review today:

“We come every year. We brought our grand kids and they just love it,” said Keith MacDonald of Thorold while enjoying a relaxing afternoon Monday at the indoor water park at the Americana Conference Resort, Spa & Waterpark on Lundy’s Lane in Niagara Falls.

“This is a beautiful service. The hospitality has been nice and we’ve had no complaints. I would recommend this to anyone, they should jump at the opportunity. I will be back next year. It’s beautiful here.”

The truth is there are more family-friendly Niagara attractions than can possibly be taken in over a period of two days. The other truth is this: as much as I presumed nothing could possibly equal or surpass the Falls in Jack’s estimation, I was wrong. What he loved best of all was the Waves Indoor Water Park at the Americana Resort, a family-friendly hotel where kids eat free. This 25,000-sq. ft. attraction features a large wave pool, tube slides, body slides, whirlpool, kiddy pool, play structures and an adjacent video arcade. The other good thing about the Americana are its family suites where children have their own separate sleeping quarters with bunk beds, walls decorated in pirate and mermaid motifs, plus their own TV.

Today we launched a new look and feel for our website and we’d love for you to check it out!

Social media now plays a big part in the wedding planning process. Couples will keep their guests informed through Facebook, blogs, Twitter and wedding websites. You will see posts such as “ Keep August 18^th open” or “Just booked our photographer”.  Family and friends feel like they are now part of the planning.

Your entire wedding can all be done online through wedding websites. Enter your guest list and check people off as they reply. Pick out wedding dresses, cakes and décor you like. You can even make your invitations and print them off at home.

Wedding bloggers love to give prizes away. Make a note to do a daily scan of your favorite wedding tweeters. Sometimes all you have to do is post a tweet to be entered!

Facebook can be a handy tool to remind your bridal party of all their duties. It is also a big help if some of your bridal party lives out of town or even out of country.  Create an event on Facebook and invite hundreds of people to your Stag and Doe.

Just remember that a lot of your older guests might not be well versed in the social media world. Make sure to give them a call or send an invite by mail. You don’t want Grandma missing your shower because she didn’t get the Facebook Event invite.

Bieber Fever hit the Americana Resort on Saturday March 12^th as the Stars of Pop tribute show to Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Mile Cyrus, Hanna Montana, and of course Justin Bieber hit the stage. This is our first event with the Stars of Pop troop and we were so pleased. The troop was professional and had amazing star qualities. Children went nuts! There were plenty of seats but they were empty as everyone was on the dance floor.

This is a lovely letter we received form one of our guests after the show on Saturday:

“I just wanted to comment on your show on Saturday, my granddaughter is 9 years old and of course a Justin fan - she was in awe of the entire performance – they were all good but Lady Gaga was my favourite - what a great venue for all the young girls that were there and the price was perfect – just wanted to congratulate the Americana for offering such a great show for the kids – keep up the good work for the locals, we appreciate it” –Janice

When we first announce we were having the Stars of Pop at the Americana the response was overwhelming we had to add an extra show. Some tickets are still available for the 2^nd show on Wednesday March 16^th. If you are interested go to www.americananiagara.com to book your tickets online.
