About Us

37 Years of Proven Success — Since 1988

3DayEscapes (3DE) began in 1988 as part of Swept Away Marketing Incentives. By 1990, we expanded operations to Acapulco and Cancun, rebranding as Swept Away Marketing International. Soon after, we opened licensed travel agency offices in the U.S. Virgin Islands to serve cruise passengers and provide cost-effective travel incentive solutions for businesses and individuals.

In 1996, we evolved into Special Advantage Marketing, broadening our offerings to include a wider range of travel experiences, promotional tools, and incentive products for businesses and organizations.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, operations were paused. Following the pandemic many hotels remained unavailable due to massive government hotel-housing contracts. With the return of travel, 3DE has reestablished our flagship 3DayEscapes Vacation Gift Certificates—with new destinations added regularly

3DayEscapes, (3DE) is a promotional incentive product introduced 1988. 3DE has been marketed to and employed by hundreds of businesses from small store-fronts to Fortune 500 companies, NPOs, NGOs, schools, churches, Direct Marketing companies, vacation clubs and other entities as their premiere fund-raising and value-added tool. 3DE promotional incentives have been used across the US, Canada, Mexico and Caribbean. The high value-low cost ratio is second to none in the incentive industry.

Our vacations are put together for you by carefully selected wholesale room brokers and consolidators that specialize in the most popular United States vacation destinations. The Vacation Gift Certificate has remained the focal point of our promotions for more than 37 years.

NO TIMESHARE - We are extremely proud of the fact that at no time will any end-user of our 3DayEscapes be required to attend or participate in any type of sales presentation.

Fully Transferable - All of our 3DayEscapes incentives are completely transferable to any persons over the age of 21. Recipients may regift their 3DayEscape to a loved one or friend or as a donation to their favorite non-profit or church as a fundraising tool.

No Breakage — A Rare Standard in Our Industry Unlike many travel incentive providers, 3DayEscapes (3DE) is proudly not based on "breakage"—a common industry practice in which offers are intentionally designed to go unused. With 3DE, there are no hidden timeshare presentations, no deceptive fine print, and no placements in environments saturated with aggressive timeshare tour agents. Instead, we partner with trusted wholesale brokers and travel consolidators to ensure every recipient has access to a genuine, high-quality travel experience. To date, millions of 3DE promotional incentives have been distributed across more than a dozen top travel destinations frequented by American travelers—delivering real value with complete transparency.

100% GUARANTEED: Everyone that follows the Terms and Conditions by properly Registering their 3DayEscapes Gift Certificate and fully completing their Reservation Request will receive their accommodations.

Thanks to you for helping us plan our Acapulco trip. Staying at the Mar Azul was wonderful. The staff was great, the food was excellent, and we had a great time. The rooms were clean and bright—I especially loved the morning views from the balcony. We’d gladly book with you again. Looking forward to our next trip!

I am typing this letter to tell you that I really enjoyed my travels to Hawaii this past February. The accommodations were good and your service was excellent. Should I ever think of taking another trip, I would consider contacting your firm for the same. I am interested in traveling to Mexico or Hawaii again.

I had just returned from your Swept Away Promotion. I just came back from Cancun, Mexico, and it was just beautiful. The food was delicious, the people great. I would advise anyone traveling to consider Cancun, you will not regret it.

We wish to thank you for the very nice time we had in Hawaii in April. Our accommodations at the Hotel in Waikiki were very nice. The food was very good and we ate all our meals at the hotel. The flights both over there and back were also very comfortable.

Thank you for helping us take our honeymoon to Hawaii. It was a trip we’ll never forget. The hotels in Hawaii and on the mainland were excellent. It was our first truly relaxing vacation. The setting was beautiful, the staff very helpful, and the food was great. Everything was smooth and enjoyable. Thanks again for a wonderful, carefree trip.

I had a great time in Hawaii. The hotel was clean, comfy, and close to the beach. All I had to do was send in the form and show up—everything else was handled. The sunsets were amazing. I’d love to try another trip like this and highly recommend it to others.
Marion Krause
Before booking the Las Vegas World Vacation Package with the Hawaii trip, I called to check if my two boys (12 & 10) could come too. I was happy to hear they could stay in our hotel room at no extra cost. We’ll cover their airfare and plan to take them. Thank you for giving us this chance—my wife has always dreamed of going to Hawaii, but we couldn’t afford it until now.
Doug Laesch
We would like to thank you so very much for our wonderful trip to Hawaii. We enjoyed the stay there tremendously. The hotel room was beautiful, the view from the windows exquisite. We appreciate the opportunity to visit this state and see the gorgeous sights there very much. The hospitality was wonderful. Again, we would like to thank you so very much for allowing us this vacation.
