A night at a lavish resort is a welcome treat for overworked homeowners and for those in hiding from Pat Sajak. Today's Groupon lets you sleep soundly away from home: for $199, you get an overnight stay in an executive suite at Gaylord Palms Resort, located just a mile and a half away from Disney World, in Kissimmee (up to a $500 value). Your Groupon is good for Friday-, Saturday-, or Sunday-night stays, from July 9th through September 6th.

Escape the concrete jungle for a night in the temperature-controlled jungle of a massive resort and playland. In addition to its many lavish guest rooms, Gaylord Palms contains six restaurants and lounges, a spa, a retail space, and four and a half acres of gardens and tributaries under its signature glass dome, including three enclosed habitats that re-create Florida environments. Stroll through the rustic wooden walkways of the Everglades as mists rise all around you and marvel at the Spanish Renaissance architecture and old-world charm of St. Augustine. You'll have a chance to bask in the tropical vibe of the Key West atrium, home to steel drums and a 60-foot schooner. Just outside Key West, you'll find Clearwater Cove, an outdoor swimming area complete with an octopus waterslide, a pool, majestic waterfalls, and a sandy play area for tots.

Executive suites at the resort are generally designed to reflect one of the three dome-enclosed environments, and the rooms—which reach up to 725 square feet—come complete with a living area and queen sleeper sofa, a small dining table, a separate bedroom with a king-size bed, and marble finishes on the surfaces.
