I know it's very obvious, but I wanted to point out how important it is to shop around when searching for hotel deals. I was looking at dates for Temptation for mid-March 2016. Last week, I thought the best deal was through TripAdvisor with $198/night (for 2 people, in USD $) Today, I searched again, and found even better rates (from Trivago). Again, this is for mid-March, namely March 13 through March 18 This is how the results stacked up: Original Resorts: $450/night Travelocity: $378/night Hotwire: $378/night Expedia: $378/night Orbitz: $374/night Alpharooms: $250/night Trivago: $164/night So keep looking and good luck searching!
The Trivago price may be per person (edit: I was wrong, it is per room, great prices). In any event, it's almost always better to try to book a flight and room package together, because that's where the big ones like Expedia/Orbitz/Travelocity give you the most savings.
It seems to be for the room,, with Hotelclick.com ,, Trivago is basically the search engine,, watch for the actual site it brings you to .( hotelclicks)
Actually worked out to $259 / night CDN after taxes and fees for 19 -29 May 2016. The site Trivago took me to is otels.com...no H there at all btw
IT CAN TAKE YOU ANYWHERE , ITS JUST A SEARCH ENGINE ,SORRY DIDN'T MEAN TO YELL ,, caps off :aktion054: too lazt to retype
We used a hotel search engine and it took me to easyclicktravel.com (never heard of them) but it was by far the cheapest at $164 a night plus tax bringing total to $1323 for 7 nights. Also had $35 off promo code for total of $1288
On four trips vacationstogo.com has always been the cheapest for us. They mainly do cruise but have a resort division also. For march 13-18 they are at 342.79/night. About 10% less then the major sites, I have found this to be true every trip. Would really wonder about the $164 price. Do you really think that the resort is going to give a price that much cheaper to a small web site and upset the big boys? I have a hard time believing it is not per person which would price it with everyone else. That being said it is Mexico and you never know who is in bed with who.
I have been screwed by one of these small companies in the past. Basically they just said , ( months after booking) ,, ''sorry your room is no longer available, we have switched your booking to **** beach club, or you may take a refund'' . I was then forced to book last minute at a much higher price . Had I not seen other people on here having issues with the same bookings , I would have arrived in Mexico and been sent to another hotel. Its in most booking companies fine print that they can move you to a same star hotel . Buyer beware.
we added 2 nights to TTR and booked it through TripAdvisor, which actually brokered it to Cancelon. Being early enough and purchased with credit card, we figured why not to save $80. After a week, I called TTR If direct and they confirmed they had a paid reservation in our name for the requested dates. If it were a lot closer to our travel dates, I wouldn't have even tried it.
It is about the same price that alpha rooms was running last week so I dont see an issue. I'll just confirm with TTR
