I am trying to find a good deal to go anywhere warm for a week and it would start next weekend(Oct 25- could leave late friday oct 24th).

I have never done a last minute deal and as I do not have any requirements besides it being warm and 4 stars or better, where should I look as I keep coming up with nothing special in terms of price.

Is the best deal to be gotten by waiting till thursday/friday next week to get the trip?

thanks

www.exitnow.ca


www.redtag.ca

These are the three main sites that I use. They all have pretty much the same prices. There are some great last minute deals right now. Just make sure you check the weather before you book/go because it is still considered Hurricane season. I would book up to a week in advance, the prices do not change much if you wait till the day before.

If you want to try Cuba, let me know I have been there many times.

Here is a 5 star AI, adult only, with a golf course for $1000 per person.

Christmas is always expensive period, new years too, then spring break. I`m going to cuba the week before christmas for 682 Taxes-in.

The cheapest trip to Cuba right now is Dec.11 to Veradaro. You can get a 2.5 star for $450 all in. As long as all you are going for is sand, sun, and suds you will be fine.

2.5 stars in Cuba.....yikes....I'd watch out for that...maybe I am biased (seeing as I have avoided Cuba so far). Not that I would never go to Cuba, just haven't heard the greatest things yet....although I don't know anyone that has stayed at a 5 star complex there yet.

I have been to 4 star places where the food was crap. You do not go to Cuba for the food. That is rule #1. For that kind of money you can eat out once a day at a better restaurant.
