Have any of you happened to use these websites to plan your trip.

 

Just last week i searched for Ala Moana hotel with next Aprils dates of travel, and it was 1300 per person with 10 day stay and roundtrip. just 5 days later and it went up 600 dollars! what in the world?

I can't totally help but we called Hawaiian Air and worked out a wedding wings discount (it's only 5%) but if we had 40 people book through our wedding wings we got a free upgrade (only one way).

 

For accommodations we rented someone's estate and there's a bunch of us staying there who will split the cost. It was cheaper for us to do it separately so I suggest looking into both separately and together so see what's cheaper for you.

 

April is a low peak month so there's no way you should be paying premium prices. I'd also advise that best time to purchase flights seems to be right after the new year (well the first 2 weeks of Jan or maybe just the first week). This is just what I experienced this year and last year. You should be able to get great (low) prices for the month of April. Good Luck.

Try clearing your cookies and revisiting the site or using a different computer. These sites remember that you've looked at that trip before, and when you come back, their sale price magically disappears. Of course, the actual price may have increased as well.

Maureen is right if you are booking for a group, the prices will definitely go up..

But if you are looking for just yourself, try the other discount sites and see if you can find it cheaper again if you are ready to book soon - kayak.com is pretty good and lets you compare it to other sites - priceline, expedia, hotels.com.

Some of my guests just booked on hotels.com and saved a lot of money by booking a package with them...

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
