Workation - nice or stupid?

I have recently received several ads on LinkedIn regarding workation. I am not sure if I think it sounds stupid or not.

I get the appeal of going south (I am from Denmark, we just had the most rainy summer ever recorded) and enjoy the weather, but at the same time it sounds like the perfect way to not enjoy your time abroad.

I work in a position where I could easily ask to work remote for a week or two, thus the targeting ad is correct that I am in the segment.

Any thoughts, experience or opinion on this?

Sounds like an expensive way to work with little reward. I'm all for making work as pleasant as possible, but paying to stay in a hotel just to work seems like a bad idea. It could be interesting in some ways in certain positions.
- I was surprised when I looked into digital nomad visas last year, how cheap an airbnb was to book for a month out of season.
  
  Edit, missed that they said a week or 2
