Staycation

Relaxing in a home swimming pool is a typical staycation pursuit.
In Hong Kong, the term may refer to a domestic tourism vacation at a hotel elsewhere in the territory[1]

A staycation (a portmanteau of "stay" and "vacation") is a recreational break spent at home or within a both-ways day's trip distance of it, requiring no overnight accommodation.[2] In the UK, the term has increasingly also come to encompass domestic tourism, or taking a holiday in one's resident country as opposed to traveling abroad.[3][4][5][6]

Common activities of a staycation include the use of a home pool, visits to local parks and museums, and attendance at local festivals and amusement parks. Some staycationers also like to follow a set of rules, such as setting a start and end date, planning ahead, and avoiding routine, with the goal of creating the feel of a traditional vacation.[7]

Staycations achieved popularity in the U.S. during the Great Recession of the late 2000s.[8][9] In 2020, they became common because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[10]
