Any time you make a decision to travel you want to get the best that you can where you are going. If anything you want to get the best at the place you are staying. You are seeking a fun trip with relaxation so you must consider a few things about your hotel. The price, the accessibility, the comfort and how clean it is.
If you think that a luxury property is automatically out of your budget you may want to think again. If you know where to look you can usually land a good deal even on the most beautiful properties relatively cheap.
Even in places like Las Vegas you can save a lot of money by looking around. Sometimes you can get a 5 star property on the strip super cheap, or you can always stay just a little off the strip and still be able to have fun. Vegas is like a lot of other places, most hotels will work to get you to attractions as easily as possible, so you dont have to stay right on site.
The Disney parks are a perfect example. The actual hotels located on the resort are usually high cost. You can stay just a few miles away from the parks though at a hotel and get a much better rate. Most of the hotels still have a shuttle or some form of transportation to the park because that is really what attracts their business, however their price is usually half of the resorts.
I would say the best way that I know of to save money is to book early and find a discount hotel website. These websites usually guarantee they have the lowest price, so if you find something out there that is cheaper, you can simply call the customer service line and they will match it. I say shop around very little, find a rate that you like, book it then keep shopping. If the rate drops let the service know.
Always read reviews of hotels and make sure the property is worth it. You don't want to save a load of money and have health concerns when you arrive. If you shop then book then shop you will save money. If a price seems too good to be true, it probably is. - 16492
