    I'm trying to book a stay and i'm on the Temptations website.. they have a fall promo right now and i'd like to book.. but under "details" for the promos i get this message
    This promotion will be capacity controlled and the Resort reserves the right to stop sale,change the promotion or return to regular rate.
    so what does that mean?? i could get there and owe more?

    Basically it means they can stop the sale at any time. Just go for it I wouldn't get concerned

    That's how I read it too. Sometimes their English is not very clear.

    If you do go ahead and book direct with the htoel, please use the cancuncare >>>> Temptation <<<<< link. The price will be the same but it records the site as referrer and pays some commission :)

    no, they cant charge more. it basically means that its a sale and they can end it at anytime. anything paid for and confirmed it 100% cool
    they say that so people cant complain if they miss the special and try and get the lower rate after it changes.

    If I were reviewing that clause from a U.S. hotel, I'd be taking it as a bait and switch scam, actually.

    "Sure, you're booked for thirty bucks a night, ome on down."
    "Oh, I'm sorry, we returned to the regular rate yesterday. You owe us two grand."

    Like that.
