My wife and I just got back a couple weeks ago from our first trip to Desire. Can anyone say AAAAAAAAAAAAAwWESOME!!!! Anyway, as great as it was, we are, of course, wanting to go back as soon as we can. We were just wondering whether any of you knew any good way to save money when travelling to Desire. Here's some ways I'd been considering (none of which we used our first time we booked there). Some of these suggestions are from folks who'd already been to Desire:
1) Stay in Cancun at cheap hotel night before and show up at resort around 9am to get 'banded' and then simply hang out around pool or beach until room is ready. Same goes when you're leaving, I suppose, don't check out until as late as possible getting maximum Desire time in. LOL
2) Try one of the Sky Auction websites for airfare or resort itself. Anyone ever use this service.
3) Check for specials throughout year for best prices for air to Cancun ie...Funjet, Cheap Caribbean
4) Stay in Gardenview booking a year out with promo rates on site now $340/night
5) Use taxi instead of private transportation. We used TransOcean our first trip and were very happy with it.
6) Book as part of a group (we're new enough not to know whether this is the main attraction of going with a groupl
7) Book with Lifestyle travel agency (again, are there savings there?
We would appreciate any and all suggestions. We're wanting to get back as soon as we can. That first time was UNBELIEVABLY FUN!!!!!! Almost surreal - best 5 days I've had in too long a time.
