UPDATES & INFO

OK. I know a lot of people have been getting on the Beaches website and checking out prices. People are getting the incorrect information. I will be adding some prices and comparisons on here using the GROUP BOOKING ID # WE HAVE RECEIVED. You will receive this number in the mail shortly with our save the date magnets. Please don't jump to conclusions. We know everyone will not be able to make it, but were trying to give people enough notice to save a little. Its a perfect time for a family vacation or weekend getaway!!!

ALSO I KNOW ITS VERY VERY HARD TO BELIEVE! BUT THESE RESORTS ARE ALL INCLUSIVE! This means EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED... ALL FOOD FROM 16 SPECIALTY RESTAURANTS, ALL DRINKS (non alcoholic & alcoholic), ALL ACTIVITIES (snorkeling, glass bottom boats, nightly entertainment/shows,disco, windsurfing, hobie cat, sailing, canoes, kayaks, paddle boats,tennis, WATERPARK, table tennis, volleyball, basketball, lawn chess, shuffleboard, horseshoes, croquet, swimming, etc).. EVEN SCUBA DIVING! Unless you need to get certified they offer classes and courses there! They also offer day care, a teen night club, video game lounge, day camp for youth/teens, etc...
its worth it OH AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO TIPPING ALLOWED!!!!!!!

OK HERE IT GOES: (this is based on 2 adults (so total not each). If you go with more people and split the room its going to be much cheaper. Many of the rooms sleep 4-6 people)
_____________________________________
THURSDAY JANUARY 21ST- SUNDAY JANUARY 24TH (3 nights 4 days)
$1554.00

WEDNESDAY JANUARY 20th- SUNDAY JANUARY 24th (4 nights 5 days)
$1970.00 

TUESDAY JANUARY 19TH- SUNDAY JANUARY 24TH (5 nights 6 days)
$2590.00

 MONDAY JANUARY 18TH- SUNDAY JANUARY 24TH (6 nights 7 days)
$3000.00

Comparison:

7 night royal caribbean - western caribbean cruise (for january 2010)
$849 interior room per person = $1700.00 (2 people)
$949 balcony room per person = $ 1900.00 (2 people)

These prices do not include ANY ACTIVITIES OR BEVERAGES. Usually on a cruise this equals out to between $500-$1000 depending on what you were looking to do and how much hydration you need. They also DO NOT INCLUDE TIPS for your head waiter, head chef and housekeeping. Which is usually about $10 a day per person. 7 x $10= $70 x 2= $140
 
Total for 7 day cruise: $1700 + 500 + 140 = $2340 (at bare minimum)
________________________________________________

Trip to Disney World: (based on 2 people)
In a Walt Disney World MODERATE RESORT for 6 nights: $1848.54

This price does not include any food or drinks. We all know you cant go to Disney and not buy anything! Your looking at another $500-$1000

Total for 6 day trip to Florida: $1848 + $500 = $2348.00 (minimum)
________________________________________________
ALL THESE TRIPS COMPARE TO OURS. People usually do not put it into retrospect like this. Because people pay for their trips all throughout the trip and do not realize how much they have spent until they get home and their accounts are drained. The reason ours may seem a little expensive is because its all right there for you to see BUT everything is included, SO WHAT YOU PAY IS FOR EVERYTHING, you pay for what you get, no additional costs. Have you ever gone back to see how much you spent on vacation? 
                                                                            ... it would compare to ours. MAY EVEN be more!


                
There is a little insight for everyone. Please think about this. Love to all!
