There's a cold front blowing through most of the U.S. and while most people are staying warm under wool scarves and flannel sheets, the Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort is heating up the Bahamas with a stellar hotel deal.

The Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort is hosting a "Companion Flies Free Package" for those guests who book by March 3, 2010 and travel through June 23, 2010. Here's the breakdown of the beach deal:

• You must stay a minimum of four nights, but you'll get up to 40 percent off the room rates. (Florida residents must book a minimum three-night stay)
• A free round-trip companion flight will be awarded when you book your hotel stay.

You could stare out the snow on the ground, or you can hang poolside on the 1,000 foot stretch of Nassau's white-sand beach. Your room rate comes with complimentary kayaking, snorkeling, and wind surfing. Those looking for a little nightlife will find it at the resort's Telegraph Bar and the nearby Crystal Palace Casino and Cable Beach Golf Club.

The resort promotion extends through school breaks, making it an ideal situation for families. The Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort offers a "Love Your Family" program, which offers various complimentary, family-focused activities each day, including fireside storytelling, stargazing, 'dive-in' movies, and festivals featuring authentic foods, dance and music.

You'll get your companion flight through one of the airline partners with the resort. To book the Companion Flies Free Package, travelers should call 1-866-789-5485.
