8 Surprises to Leave on Guests’ Beds

Little tokens of appreciation that are thoughtful, whimsical and just plain smart.

1. A personalized, heartfelt, handwritten note thanking them for making the trip. Doesn’t cost much, but it’ll generate a ton of good will.

2. A voucher for a free in-room movie. Pair it with a bag of candy or gourmet popcorn for the ultimate viewing experience.

3. A mini flashlight for impromptu midnight swims and moonlit excursions to the beach.

4. A CD of your favorite sleepy-time tunes. Throw in a few bags of herbal tea, and they’ll be in dreamland before their heads hit the pillow.

5. A pair of cozy cashmere socks to snuggle in.

6. A split of champagne. Nothing can get a party — or a vacation — started like bubbly.

7. A mini Scrabble game with a little note that says, “Open in case of rain.”

8. Packets of Alka-Seltzer and aspirin for toomuchfunitis. They’ll love you forever.
