Tusayan Hotels and Other Tips for a Working Vacation at the Grand Canyon

Article by Sandy Winslow

If you own your own business or just have a lot of work to do, sometimes the only way to take a vacation is to take it with you. Other times you may be taking a work-related trip, and have plenty of work to do while you are gone. Regardless, for many people, taking a vacation means planning ahead so that you will be able to work from the road.

Having to work doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy your vacation to the Grand Canyon, though; it just means that you may have to pay closer attention to small matters, such as whether you stay at one of the Tusayan hotels or somewhere else. Here are a few tips to help you get your work done without sacrificing all the best things about a vacation to the Grand Canyon.

Stay in a hotel with wireless Internet access. Internet access is important for keeping in touch with co-workers or employees, communicating with clients, and performing many other tasks associated with work. Therefore, wifi is one of the things you just can’t go without on a working vacation. Most hotels these days have wifi, so many people forget to check — but you will have a hard time finding that deep in a state park!Therefore it is important to remember to look for a hotel with wireless before booking your reservation.

If this is one of your main concerns, be sure to check out Tusayan hotels. Tusayan is only a mile away from the South Rim entrance, which means that you are close enough to enjoy everything the Grand Canyon has to offer during the day without having to give up the things you need to get your work done every evening!

Find out where the wireless hot spots are. Part of the research before your trip should include finding out where you can get wireless Internet access during your trip, when you aren’t in your room at the hotel, that is. If you want to be able to check email during the day, is there a coffee shop or another business that offers wireless access?You can usually find this out via an Internet search.

Invest in power gadgets and an extra battery for your laptop. Especially when you will be away from a power outlet for long periods of time, ensuring that you have plenty of power during your trip is imperative if you want to be able to get enough work done. A bigger battery or a second battery is always a necessity when you travel often, especially if you will be spending time where there isn’t usually an outlet handy, such as in the middle of a national park!Even those who fly a lot will find that a bigger battery is often necessary if you want to power your laptop for an entire flight.

There are also some great power gadgets that you might want to invest in. For instance, a power strip or a power cord for your laptop that plugs into your cigarette lighter will allow you to charge your computer’s battery on the road, or even just power it while you are in the car. This is an especially great investment if you take a lot of road trips.

The Grand Canyon is one of America’s favorite vacation spots, so you should be able to easily plan a vacation that will allow you to work from the road. With a great selection of Tusayan hotels just an hour from the South Rim entrance, plenty of battery power, and careful planning ahead, you will be able to have your fun AND get your work done!

Work Vacations question by neinei: How does taking time off for long vacations work?
I know a lot of people that take 1-3 months off for vacation and usually because they’re going out of the country for vacation. I was just wondering, do they get paid for all three months while they’re on vacation, or do they have to sacrifice 1-2 months of being unpaid? Has anyone been able to take vacations this long? Thanks in advance.

A family member of mine took a leave of absence from her job to go trekking in India for something like 2 months. She had SOME vacation/sick time, saved money, and was gifted like $ 500 from our grandmother. Oh, and she used her credit card

I went on a couple long trips around the country. Saved my money and pawned things I didn’t need to do it, then quit whatever job(s) I was working… I knew they would be temporary anyway.
