Hospitality for Habitat offers 50 percent off primo Maine lodgings

Every spring, Hospitality for Habitat offers 50% off participating properties. With this program, presented by Hospitality Maine, you can check into one of Maine’s finer accommodations at a great rate while helping a working Maine family put a permanent roof over their heads. Usually, more than a dozen Maine accommodations participate and offer lodging at half the regular rate. Yup, you read that right. This cheap sleeps deal delivers a 50% discount off what are usually low off-season rates at this time of year.

The 2024 program runs from April 21 to May 31. But some properties extend the season. For example, the Inn by the Sea started in December.

Wait! It gets even better.

So here’s the deal: Make reservations to check into a Maine lodging property between mid-April and late May and get 50 percent off the regular rate, courtesy of Hospitality Maine’s annual Hospitality for Habitat program. The catch? You must write a $35 (minimum) check to Habitat for Humanity. That organization gives a hand up, not a handout, to deserving working families.

All contributions support Habitat chapters in Maine. So far, more than $325,000 has been raised through this program.

I love this promo because everyone wins:

• Guests get a reasonable rate,

• Accommodations sell rooms during a quiet season,

• Workers at participating properties earn tips and perhaps get more hours,

• And it helps put a permanent roof over the heads of deserving Maine families.

Hospitality for Habitat details

Participating properties usually include B&Bs, boutique hotels, fancy inns, chain motels, and full-scale resorts. Some restrict the offer to specific rooms or dates or have a minimum stay. But in any case, what a deal! And one you can feel good about enjoying.

The list of participating properties grows as more accommodations sign on. Check back regularly.

Fine print: Each property may limit the number of rooms available for this promo. Reservations are required. The contribution to Habitat for Humanity must be in the form of a check.
