A Kelowna couple who won 18 years of free stays at Hotel Zed has welcomed the newest member of their family.

Nicole and Alex stayed at Hotel Zed on Valentine鈥檚 Day 2020. In December, they welcomed their baby girl, expanding their family to four.

The successful birth of their daughter inspired Hotel Zed to re-launch the campaign in time for Feb. 14.

The hotel鈥檚 playful campaign offers midday stays, with the added bonus of 18 years of free stay every Valentine鈥檚 Day to couples who give birth to a baby nine-months after check-in.

This year, with safety protocols in place, Hotel Zed is once again encouraging local couples to participate and treat themselves to a four-hour Valentine鈥檚 Day escape.

鈥淭he promotion is open to families of all kinds. However, you welcome the baby, whether that be through IVF, surrogacy or adoption is fine by us,鈥� the hotel said.

鈥淎s long as the baby arrives within nine months of check-in, the lucky parents will receive a complimentary annual stay for 18 years.鈥�

Hotel Zed鈥檚 CEO Mandy Farmer said the campaign was meant to restore excitement around Valentine鈥檚 Day.

鈥淲e never expected it would create such joy,鈥� she said.

鈥淲e鈥檙e looking forward to re-introducing the Nooner this Valentine鈥檚 Day, and continuing to spread the love - and meeting Hotel Zed鈥檚 love children - for many years to come.鈥�

The hotel鈥檚 Nooner package starts with a four-hour stay, but couples can extend the stay to overnight.
