If there’s a quirky holiday to exploit, you can bet the hotel industry will find it and do just that. This is a leap year, meaning there’s 366 days — one more than the usual 365 — this calendar year. With that in mind, two hotels and one website are offering deals to coincide with the Feb. 29  leap day.

The Somerset on Grace Bay, Turks & Caicos

The luxury resort’s Hop, Skip and a Leap  package offers every fifth night free for travel booked by Feb. 29 for stays through June 30. That translates into a 20 percent discount on five-night stays.  For a stay booked for the first week in March, the best available price per night on the resort’s website is $960 (factoring in the fifth-night free, exclusive of tax) for a 1,500 square foot one-bedroom oceanview villa with with full kitchen, dining area, living room, master bedroom with king/queen bed, 1.5 baths and a private balcony/terrace.
