Do you love all things Dolly? Are you ready to live in the lap of luxury? If so, it’s time for you to experience Dolly Parton style luxury for yourself. With that, you get to see just what it’s like to have all the glitz and glamour at your fingertips. Just remember to stay humble, of course. A true luxury maven would never forget their modest roots, after all. Ready to get started? Here’s how to go all out while visiting Dollywood.
Book the Dolly Parton Suite
Start out your journey into pure luxury by booking the iconic Dolly Parton Suite at the DreamMore Resort & Spa. The Queen of Country Music herself put her full personality into designing, furnishing, and decorating the suite – and the results are phenomenal.
The penthouse apartment sits on the top floor of the resort, offering breathtaking views through the stylish picture windows. Although it’s built for two, the ultra-spacious apartment comes with a living room, dining room, office area, bedroom, two bathrooms, and a bar, of course.
Glitzy chandeliers, furry pink rugs, mirror cabinets, and gold accents all around set the stage for an amazing stay. You cannot forget all the Dolly memorabilia, too, like her beloved saxophone. As you gaze in awe at all the swag, take a moment to pay homage to Dolly while enjoying her cool digs.
As it’s quite an iconic place to stay, the room stays booked out more often than not. On top of that, they insist that you ring them up by phone to even inquire about its availability – no online bookings are allowed for this fancy suite.
If you can manage to get your name on the list, you’ll likely have time to save up for the nightly room rate, which lands in the $1,200 to $2,000 range on average. The price fluctuates all throughout the year, too, often hitting $2,500 per night during the peak tourist season.
Although it costs a pretty penny to stay in the Dolly Parton Suite, it’s well worth the money. The sheer extravagance all around will have you feeling like royalty. And the unforgettable setting will allow you to make memories to last a lifetime.
Enjoy Exquisite Spa Services
A spa visit is perfect for getting ready for the waterpark or simply winding down after a long day of Dollywood adventures. So, while staying at the DreamMore, definitely take a trip over to the spa to enjoy all the pampering you can get.
On their spa menu, you’ll find all the most luxurious services around, including:
- Hair
- Nails
- Facials
- Massage
- Waxing
- Body treatments
You can put together your perfect pampering package, ensuring you walk out feeling your best always.
Want beautiful hair, shiny nails, and glowing skin? Just ask for Cleanse, Condition, & Blowout hair services plus the Radiant Signature Lift facial and Indulgence Manicure and Pedicure combo. You could even go all out with a Himalayan Stone Massage to remember.
If you’d like to bring a friend along on the journey, inquire about their Couple’s Massage. Offered in your choice of mellow, restorative, or salt stone, this massage journey promises to melt the stress away. Plus, you’ll end up cozily cocooned in hot towels – or enveloped by relaxing yet rejuvenating aromatherapy oil.
You can even take a bit of luxury home with you by purchasing spa products used right in-house. They offer all the best skin care products from leading brands, including Farmhouse Fresh, Glo Skin Beauty, and milk_shake. Just let them know which products you absolutely cannot live without, and they’ll add them to your tab.
Take Dollywood’s VIP Tour
After getting pampered to the fullest, sign up for the VIP Tour at Dollywood. With that move, you’ll get assigned a personal tour guide for your entire day of theme park shenanigans. Your VIP experience begins with valet parking if needed for your vehicle. Or you can just hop on the shuttle if you’re still booked at the DreamMore for the night.
Then, as you walk onto the park grounds, your guide will come over to offer a warm welcome and answer all your questions about the day ahead. After that, you’ll get to explore the park at your leisure, while your guide shares fun facts and inside tips galore. You’ll also get front-of-the-line access to all the main attractions, like Daredevil Falls, Great Tree Swing, and Lightning Rod.
On your explorations, imagine all the possibilities as you pass by the many eateries in your midst. Then, choose the one that speaks to you most to get a tasty meal on the house. A wonderful gift from Dolly will come your way at the end of the tour, too, perfectly completing your VIP explorations.
Save Time at Splash Country
If you don’t want the VIP experience to end, get another taste by signing up for the TimeSaver H20 Pass at Splash Country. With that pass in hand, you’ll get to skip the lines and go straight for the expedited entrances eight times each day. Want to skip the lines all day long? Then, you’ll need to treat yourself to the TimeSaver H20 Unlimited instead.
Either way, only select rides qualify for usage of the pass, so don’t be surprised if you still have to wait in line for a couple of your favorites. Despite that, it’s still worth trying to get your hands on this pass, which is only available on a first-come, first-served basis each day.
Even More Luxury to Come
Although Dolly Parton comes from humble roots, she’s always happy to add a little bit of luxury to her fans’ lives. So, keep an eye out for more luxurious suites, experiences, and the like to land at Dollywood, like the much-anticipated HeartSong Lodge and Resort. Then, hop on the chance to swing on by and try them out for yourself.
