How to Find the Cheapest Rates on Florida Resorts
- 1). Search travel sites. Narrow down results by selecting desired Florida locations and what amenities should be offered. Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale and Miami are popular destinations. Commonly requested amenities include internet access, babysitting services and spa facilities. Keep travel dates flexible to receive a wider quote range. Arrival and departure dates impact rates. Resort and flight packages are offered that are not always a bargain. Travel sites offer discounted rooms but the quote typically includes a service fee.
- 2). Contact the resorts. Use travel site information to contact desired resorts. Call the reservation desk to request a rate quote. Some resorts offer rate quotes through an official website. Compare direct quotes with travel site quotes. Cutting out the middle-person sometimes results in a cheaper rate.
- 3). Talk with a travel agent. They use professional contacts to obtain cheap rate quotes. The agent also provides detailed information about each resort. Agents charge a fee for their services. Compare the total cost with price quotes received online and directly from the resorts.
- 4). Book travel early for the best rate deals.
