Amid the COVID-19 pandemic and in anticipation of Father's Day this year, Hotels.com debuted a "mulligan" campaign to help consumers give their dads an amazing gift post-pandemic. For 48 hours only, Hotels.com is offering 50% off bookings at 10 luxurious golf resorts across the globe so consumers can "take a mulligan aka a do-over in golf lingo."
“This year isn’t making it easy on anyone to make Father’s Day a hole in one,” said Josh Belkin, vice president, Hotels.com brand. “With future stays at these 10 incredible golf resorts, we’re hoping this offer will take the guesswork out of Father’s Day gift giving and reward your dad with something to look forward to — an epic golf trip!”
