$199 Groupon Mystery Getaway Deal Is Back With Flights (Plus Hotel Included)
The Groupon mystery getaway deal is the kind of travel chaos that can be either genius or stressful, depending on how much we love surprises. It bundles roundtrip flights plus hotel, then reveals the destination and trip length after booking. If we are flexible and craving a reset, this is a fun way to travel for less.

What this deal actually is
This Groupon mystery getaway is priced per person, based on two people traveling together and sharing. We buy at least two vouchers, pick our preferred travel dates and departure airport, then the trip gets assigned by a random draw. Trip length can be 2 nights, 4 nights, or 7 nights.
The fun part is obvious. We do not have to plan every detail. We just choose availability, pack, and go. The not fun part is also obvious. We do not get to control the destination the same way we would on a normal booking.
Why it can still be a money saver
Travel gets expensive fast because planning adds on extras. This deal bakes in the two biggest costs up front, flight and hotel. For a lot of families, that is the difference between taking a trip and talking about taking a trip.
It can also be a great way to actually follow through on rest and wellness. A change of scenery helps. So does sleeping somewhere that is not next to a laundry pile. If we treat this as a simple recharge weekend, it can be a solid value.
Read this before buying
This is not for control freak energy. It is for flexible people.
A few practical things to keep in mind
- Carry on and checked bags are not included
- Airport transfers are not included
- Some destinations may have resort fees or local taxes
- Once the booking form is submitted and confirmed, changes and cancellations get complicated fast
How to make it work for us
- Choose dates with flexibility built in
- Pick the closest departure airport we can realistically use
- Treat it like a surprise weekend, not a once in a lifetime dream trip
- Budget a little extra for baggage and transportation, just in case
If we are flexible and want an exciting deal, the Groupon mystery getaway is worth a look. It is a fun way to travel without doing a thousand tabs of research. For more ways to stretch the budget, head to our Saving Money page.
