CHARLESTON, S.C., August 13, 2009 – Planters Inn, a 64-room hotel located in the heart of Charleston’s historic City Market and South Carolina’s only Relais & Chateaux property, has unveiled two new packages to usher in the fall season. The No Worries and Divalicious Getaway Packages, designed for value-mindful travelers and girls’ getaways, offer new ways to experience one of the South’s most charming cities and acclaimed hotels.

The No Worries Package is ideal for travelers who are reluctant to forego their vacation despite the flow of the stock market.

Rates for a Queen, Grand King or Deluxe guest room start at $249 per night and rates for a Plantation King room start at $275 per night. All rates are based on double occupancy.

Whether it be a bachelorette weekend, sister bonding or reunion with the girlfriends from college, the Divalicious Getaway Package creates an enticing, experiential escape. The rise in popularity of girlfriend getaways has steadily increased over 200 percent within the last decade, allowing time-pressed career women in their 30s and 40s a chance to relax and socialize. The Divalicious Getaway package includes accommodations in a luxurious King or Queen guest room; a three-course tasting menu at Peninsula Grill with wine pairings, crafted by Executive Chef Robert Carter; transportation to and from the Charleston International Airport via luxury SUV; sweet treat arrival amenity from Pastry Chef Claire Chapman; manicure and pedicure at Earthling Day Spa; and VIP shopping experience at Saks Fifth Avenue on King Street. Rates begin at $900 per night and $1,200 for two nights, based on double occupancy.
