This season, Club Wyndham will spread holiday cheer loud for all to hear with a suite stay like no other, inspired by the classic New Line Cinema holiday film, Elf. Travelers of all ages will be transported into Buddy the Elf’s imaginative and over the top Christmas world when they book an exclusive one-bedroom suite at Club Wyndham Midtown 45 in New York City. The vacation club suite features everything you need to have the perfect holiday experience, complete with hundreds of paper snowflakes, Buddy’s favorite toys, plenty of sugary treats and more. The Elf-themed suite is available for reservations from December 2 – December 26, with rates starting at $399 per night or 15,000 Wyndham Rewards® points on select nights.
As a part of a vacation club that encourages families to live their travel bucket list through its collection of more than 100 resorts around the world, this first-ever experiential suite at Club Wyndham Midtown 45, created in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, will allow travelers to live like Buddy as they get cozy in the heart of New York City – one of the world’s must-see destinations for the holidays.
From the moment they arrive, guests will be immersed in a winter wonderland. A door dressed in an elf jacket will welcome families, opening to the living and dining area filled with all of Buddy’s favorite holiday décor. Hundreds of paper snowflakes, popcorn, and paper garlands adorn the ceiling, while a towering Christmas tree beautifully decorated with golden ornaments centers the space. Guests will marvel at a Lite Brite welcome message, jack-in-the-box toys under the tree, a colorful gift wrap mural wall complete with six-inch ribbon curls and more. In the kitchen, ribbons cover the cabinets and a full-size fridge is stocked with elves’ four essential food groups – candy, candy canes, candy corn, and maple syrup. Families will have everything they need to prepare a Buddy the Elf-inspired meal in the suite’s fully equipped kitchen, with treats including spaghetti, marshmallows, chocolate sauce, Pop-Tarts, rolls of cookie dough, M&Ms and, of course, liters of soda.
The Christmas cheer continues into the suite’s bedroom and bathroom, with even more paper snowflakes, garlands, festive decorations and bath ‘snowballs’ to complete an elf-approved vacation this season. Guests of all ages can also enjoy some of Buddy’s favorite toys, including a Lego replica of the Empire State building, Etch A Sketches and toy trains available throughout the suite.

“Every detail of this Elf-inspired suite was designed to put families in awe from the moment they walk in,” said Noah Brodsky, a chief brand officer for Wyndham Destinations. “Visiting New York City during the holidays is at the top of many travelers’ bucket list, and Club Wyndham wants to help our owners check that list off in a spectacular way. We think there’s no better way to do it than to get families immersed into Buddy the Elf’s whimsical Christmas world.”
The Elf-inspired holiday suite sleeps up to four guests, and reservations will be available to book starting November 25, for stays beginning December 2. Rates start at $399 per night or 15,000 Wyndham Rewards points on select nights. The suite will be available exclusively for Club Wyndham vacation club members from December 21 – December 26. Families that reserve the holiday suite inspired by Elf can follow Buddy’s steps throughout the city with complimentary admission for up to four people to the Empire State Building and tickets to the Rockefeller Center ice skating rink.
