We're sharing our favorite reasons to book a split stay—from experiencing multiple resort themes and amenities to stretching your vacation budget and adding a little extra pixie dust to your trip. But we're also keeping it real about the challenges, like packing up halfway through your vacation, navigating transfer day, and deciding if the extra logistics are worth it.
