YOU deserve a staycation! I headed about 30 miles YOU deserve a staycation! I headed about 30 miles outside downtown Chicago to 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐨 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝. @Wcsouthland is a luxurious escape from the city. The state of the art hotel opened in 2025 and has over 255 rooms and 43+ suites. There’s a pool, fitness center, and a full service luxury spa @wcsouthlandspa that spans 11,665 square feet. The 70,000 square foot casino offers 1,412 slot machines, 56 table games, poker room, and the newly opened - Sportsbook. Sportsbook is a high energy, 24/7 destination for sports fans to watch and wager. 

As a foodie my FAVORITE part is well the FOOD. 😆 I loved my dinner at Chef @Fabioviviani restaurant @altosteakhouse. We also enjoyed the Food Bazaar located on the ground floor. There’s six restaurants within the food bazaar and they’re all you can eat. I highly recommend heading to Chicago Southland for a staycation @wcsouthland.
📍17300 S Halsted St, East Hazel Crest, IL

I had one of the BEST spa experiences at Wind Cree I had one of the BEST spa experiences at Wind Creek Southland Spa. 😌

@Wcsouthlandspa is 11,000+ square feet and overlooks the Chicago skyline. The peaceful retreat is guided by a deep commitment to holistic wellness and relaxation. I started off in the heated jacuzzi whirl pool and then had a a rejuvenating facial. My skin was glowing immediately! My friend decided to do a cupping massage for the first time and she could feel the detoxification running through her body. 

Afterwards we both enjoyed the sauna and relaxed with some refreshing fruit infused water while overlooking the skyline. It was the perfect Sunday Funday. Check them out! 📍17300 S Halsted St, Hazel Crest, IL located inside @Wcsouthland
