Planning a Budget Holiday Successfully

With a little advance planning, you can make that dream vacation become a reality – whether it’s a romantic getaway to a Venice hotel room overlooking one of the lovely city’s famous canals, or a relaxing visit to a sunny Caribbean paradise, such as one of the fabulous Puerto Rico hotels or resorts, there is probably a way to do it for substantially less than you might think.

Many resorts and hotels offer big savings if you book your trip far enough in advance, but it’s important to make sure your dates are solid, since most of these advances booking offers are not transferable by date. If you’re sure when you want to travel, however, it’s possible to save as much as 20 – 40% on rooms and suites.

Another way to save cash on flights and accommodations is to travel during the off-season. Many popular destinations, such as Paris, Rome or Venice can be hot and crowded in the peak summer months – why not visit when temperatures are cooler and you don’t have to queue up for hours to get into museums or other attractions? That Venice hotel room is likely to have a lot less mosquitoes in late November…

Puerto Rico hotels and those in other popular destinations can be relatively expensive year-round, but many do offer off-season rates or discount packages. Do a bit of internet research and find out what’s available. Many high-end luxury resorts and hotels offer specials that can make a big difference to the budget-minded traveler in search of a bit of the good life.

Being flexible and somewhat creative in your travel plans can open up many opportunities to see the world in style on a shoestring budget. Planning a trip can be a big part of the fun, so get started planning your next dream vacation today!
