Holiday Lights, Penthouse Nights, & Gaylord Grandeur

Celebrate the Season in Grand, VIP Style

4 Days / 3 Nights ~ Fully Customizable

Celebrate the season in grand style with a luxurious holiday escape to the Gaylord Resort at National Harbor and our exclusive Penthouse Christmas Party overlooking Washington, DC’s monuments shining bright against the night sky.

At the Gaylord, the soaring atrium transforms into a winter wonderland with twinkling lights, dazzling shows, and even indoor snowfall—setting the stage for a truly magical getaway.

The highlight of your trip is our glamorous Penthouse Christmas Party at Top of the Town. Dressed in holiday finery, you’ll sip festive toasts, enjoy butler-served hors d’oeuvres and a gourmet holiday meal, and dance the night away with panoramic views of the capital’s holiday glow.

Combined with the elegance of your resort stay and the enchantment of Christmas in DC, this is the ultimate holiday celebration filled with luxury, sparkle, and unforgettable memories.
