Just when I thought we had hit bottom (travel deals, I mean), the rates are getting lower! I have outlined the best deals I have seen through out the Caribbean, airfare sale and a special Tahiti deal that will blow your mind!
This is a MUST READ if you are thinking of taking the family on vacation between now and next Fall.
There are more kids stay free deals than ever seen before. I also notice the additional costs for upgrading to suites or having connecting rooms are being cut up to 60%!
Another change I notice is the increase in resort and cruise credits.
Cruise ships always made their real profit by what they sell on the ship such as alcohol, clothes, tours, etc. Now more than ever before, the cruise lines are offering up to $300 on board ship credit.
The trend for resorts to also offer credits is growing tremendously. Resort credit used to be something I saw in the low season or an infrequent special. Resort credit can go towards spa, tours, golf, drinks and food if it is not an all inclusive, or simply fun nick knacks.
When you see these credits in the deal, always check what it is for and make sure it is valid on the dates you are going. Once verifies, just think of it like someone handed you cash towards spending money on your vacation.
Here are a few very new amazing deals for families this Spring, Summer & Fall! Some of these deals have not even been published yet, so take advantage of them and happy traveling!
Caribbean Family Vacations:
I had to check this one a few times because it looked to good to be true, but it is correct:
CheapCaribbean's 48 hour sale, all inclusive three star resorts for $48 per person, per night. Yes, all inclusive - meals, taxes, drinks, activities, kids activities, etc...many of these resorts allow children under 12 free, so all you have to pay is the airfare! I would compare the resorts on sale to a nice Holiday Inn, this resort is midway between deluxe and moderate. The deal is for travel from May - June 30, a perfect family trip before summer activites begin.
Check out all of the $48 deals for families! This sale ends 11:59pm Friday, April 3.
Apple Vacations' Spring Savings Sale! If you do not see your gateway, they may still have it, using the booking engine on the top of the page. It is really cool as you can specify your needs when you begin (airport, amount of people, budget, amount of nights, etc) and that will reflect every deal you click on. This eliminates the irritating task of having to fill out your information over and over to shop around. The lead pricing is $459+: 60% off: All-Inclusives w/Air.
Apple Vacations charters their own planes, so the airfare is very reasonable. The add-ons for different gateways are reasonable as well. $499 per adult for 3 nights all inclusive five-star resort including airfare, two kids under 12 stay and fly for $199 per child! Not interested in the all inclusive, ok, there are resort deals for $599.99 including 7 night resort stay and airfare!
Future Vacations is running my favorite kind of deal - up to $300 in Spa and/or Golf Credit! Ahhh, I would have no problem using up that Spa Credit! The resort is Cancun Palace, a Four-Star beachfront, all inclusive. I stayed here years ago and it was ok, a bit run down and a little big for my taste. Now the resort has had a fuill make over, ready to impress.
The make over includes a redesigned pool, modern spa, five fine dining restaurants, six bars including two swim up bars and a Kid's Club. All rooms have a double Jacuzzi, balcony, first class amenities and 24 hr room service. 24hr room service at an all inclusive is the coolest - you can feed the midnight munchy attack without having to worry about exhorbanent hotel bills!
BookIt.com, one of the best web sites I have found for extra amenities and all sorts of goodies is running a Dominic Republic All Inclusive Sale. All Inclusive start from $59 per person, per night with tons of kids free deals, room upgrades and more.
Airfare sale:
American Airlines has a major sale domestic right now with travel through August 14. Airfares are starting at $49 each way. What is extra special about this sale is tround trip is not required. So if you want to fly somewhere and go back rfom a different gateway, you dont have to deal with all of the extra charges. For a listing of all the gateways and prices, click here.
The top value of the week (drum roll...)
Tahiti - the trip of a life time, suddenly became more affordable. Air Tahiti Nui is also offering slashed rates and free air from Los Angeles for kids! Add-ons from other cities are reasonable. The feature sale is $1698/per adult+: Air, Breakfast & 5nts Manava Suite Resort Tahiti- there are other options, more nights - this is the lead rate (best deal) and it is specifically designed for family vacations!
Happy traveling!
