Why Seven Million Naira Could Be Your Worst December Decision

Eko Hotels adopts comprehensive food safety system

Picture this: Travel agencies flooding your social media with glossy images of Dubai’s sparkling skylines and South Africa’s luxurious resorts, promising the ultimate holiday escape. But behind those glamorous advertisements lies a financial nightmare that could drain your entire year’s savings faster than you can say “holiday package.”

And this isn’t your fault. The economy has been struggling and the value of our currency (naira) has been on a free fall. What this means is that foreign trips or destination holidays, has inadvertently been priced beyond the reach of most middle income homes.

This December, destination holidays are being marketed at prices that would make even the most extravagant spender wince. Seven million naira per person? That’s not a holiday; that’s a financial heart attack. For a family of four, you’re looking at a staggering thirty million naira – a sum that could literally transform lives or secure significant future investments.

But here’s the game-changer: What if I told you that the same seven million naira could create a magical, unforgettable holiday experience right here in Lagos, at Eko Hotels and Suites? Not just a stay, but an entire magical adventure designed to make your family’s Christmas absolutely spectacular. What you are bound to discover is that Eko Hotels is more than just a hotel.

Imagine waking up in a luxurious suite, knowing you’ve saved millions while accessing world-class entertainment. Two Broadway theatre musicals that will transport your family to magical storytelling realms. A comedy show that will have everyone in stitches. A circus performance that will make children’s eyes sparkle with wonder. Live music that will set your evenings ablaze with excitement. Family game shows that create memories more precious than any passport stamp.

And let’s talk about food – not just meals, but daily gourmet buffets that rival international restaurants. Three sumptuous buffets every single day, prepared by top-tier chefs who understand that dining is an experience, not just sustenance.

The mathematics of this decision is brutally simple. Thirty million naira on a week-long international trip versus seven million naira for a comprehensive, stress-free, entertainment-packed holiday in Lagos. Which sounds more intelligent? Which sounds like a decision your future self will thank you for?

Moreover, by choosing Eko Hotels and Suites, you’re not just saving money. You’re supporting local businesses, creating jobs in the Nigerian hospitality sector, and proving that world-class experiences don’t require a passport or astronomical expenses.

This isn’t just about saving money. It’s about making a statement. It’s about understanding that true luxury isn’t about how far you travel, but about the quality of experiences you create. It’s about recognizing that memories are built through shared moments of joy, laughter, and connection – not through expensive flight tickets and exhausting international travel.

The global travel industry wants you to believe that happiness is found in distant lands. But happiness? Happiness is right here. Happiness is a family together, enjoying world-class entertainment, comfort, and cuisine, without the stress of international travel.

So, this December, make the choice that your wallet, your family, and your peace of mind will celebrate. Choose Eko Hotels and Suites. Choose an extraordinary local experience. Choose to keep your seven million naira working for you, not flying away with some glossy travel package.

Look, when Africa’s foremost brands come together for families, expect a magical Christmas holiday. With Eko Hotels and Zenith bank, there’s no other destination this Christmas deserving of your hard earned N7 million.

Listen, Eko Hotels are no longer players, they are game changers – and we are all captivated spectators of the magical holiday moments they are creating for families.

Behold, Mama Africa beckons – honour her with patriotism and embrace destination Lagos. You owe this to your country and her future. Your most magical Christmas is waiting – and it’s closer than you think.
