Reunite with your Bestie and Win $10K with Wyndham!

Days Inn Wants to Pay You $10K for Reuniting with Your Bestie!

Are you missing your best friend? Nearly 40% of adults report that their closest friends live in different states. Let’s face it: even the strongest friendships need more than just direct messages and video calls to stay strong. That’s where Days Inn comes in. In honour of National Best Friends Day, this hotel brand, known for spreading joy, is launching a nationwide search to reunite five pairs of long-distance best friends. These pairs will serve as its newest brand ambassadors.

Days Inn invites five dynamic duos to become official “Days Inn-siders.” These pairs will spend a weekend exploring and showcasing the best offerings of various buzz-worthy destinations nationwide. In exchange for creating exciting content for the brand’s social media channels, each duo will receive a $10,000 payment, along with accommodations, flights, and a daily travel stipend.

“In a world where group chats fade and schedules collide, Days Inn is making sure one thing stays strong – closeness. With destinations that offer everything from laid-back beach escapes to vibrant city adventures, our hotels create space for best friends to share the kind of moments that stick – and that’s exactly what our Days Inn-siders will help bring to life.John Henderson, VP, Brand Operations, Days Inn by Wyndham.

 


The Mission: Guaranteed Closeness

Each duo will work together to document their ultimate “days out” experience, showcasing must-try bites and must-see sights all within steps of their hotel. Recognizing that no two friendships are alike, each getaway will be tailored to fit a different kind of duo. This approach will show other travellers that no matter where they are headed, the best experiences can be found with Days Inn. Whether it’s a mother-daughter team searching for the best beaches or college roommates turned long-distance friends looking for thrilling adventures, Days Inn will customize trips that cater to each duo’s unique personalities and passions.

Among the types of duos, Days Inn is searching for:

  • Nature Nomads – From misty mornings in the Pacific Northwest, stargazing in Sedona and red rock sunsets in the Southwest, these besties feel most alive on the trail.
  • Taste Makers—These besties plan their trips around flavor and flair, whether it’s uncovering the best deep-dish in Chicago, food truck feasts in Austin, or café-hopping in Portland.
  • Adrenaline Junkies – Whether it’s roller coasters in Orlando, zip-lining through the Smokies, or ATVing across the Utah dessert, these besties are all in for speed, heights and heart-racing fun.
  • Wave Watchers – From sunrise surf sessions in Santa Monica to boardwalk strolls in Ocean City, MD, these besties are all about salt air and sandy toes.
  • Culture Cravers – Live music in Nashville, museums in D.C., art walks in Santa Fe – these besties travel for soul, story and self-expression.

The Responsibilities:

  • Able to travel for two nights between August and December 2025 (dates and destination will be coordinated with the Days Inn team).
  • Create original “Days Inn-sider” content (video + photo) highlighting must-do experiences for the brand’s social media channels.
  • Inspire others to stop waiting and start reuniting through authentic storytelling.
  • Represent the Days Inn spirit like a pro, rooted in fun, adventure and warmth.

The Perks:

  • $10,000 cash payday ($5,000 per bestie).
  • Shared Days Inn hotel room for two guests for two nights.
  • Travel stipend ($2,000 per pair) for airfare, ground transportation, and meals.
  • Wyndham Rewards® DIAMOND level membership.
  • A suitcase full of Days Inn swag.
  • A real-life reunion with your favourite person.

The Qualifications:

  • Creative and social media-savvy duo—18 years or older.
  • Social-savvy: you know your way around a photo dump, reel or TikTok.
  • Legal resident of U.S., District of Columbia, Guam or Puerto Rico with a valid form of government-issued ID (e.g., U.S. passport or state-issued ID).
  • Must be fluent in both written and spoken English.

  1. The full names of both individuals in the pair.
  2. Each individual’s place of residence in the U.S.
