I believe that we all have our little secrets to living the good life that we’re reluctant to share for one reason or another. I’m ready to “DIVULGE” one of my FAVORITE places to find Florida vacations that are SO LOW that it doesn’t pay to stay home! But, you have to PROMISE me (pinky swear) that you won’t tell a soul, because if TOO MANY people know about it – it won’t be so CHEAP!
About once a week, I head over to Florida Vacation Auctions. This site was created by one of the premiere marketing experts in the travel field and is the only site that works with VISIT FLORIDA ™, the State of Florida’s Official Source for Travel Planning. So, if you’ve been afraid of using auctions in the past for your travel, you can now bid with CONFIDENCE and trust.
On the Florida Vacation Auctions site, you’ll find great weekend stays at some of the BEST hotels and locales as well as auctions for reduced admission to some very distinctly Florida attractions. I was able to “score” a 3-day hotel ON THE WATER in a 4* resort in the Keys for less than a night at a roadside motel last year.
You’ll need to check in often, as the hotels and areas change according to season and what’s available. So, if you don’t see that spot you’ve been dying to visit right NOW, it may be listed in a month or two.
Here’s an example of an auction that JUST closed.
The Sanibel Island Resort and Spa(that’s the resort that’s pictured above)
- 3 Days/2 Nights
- Deluxe Guest Room Accommodation with a king bed or two double beds.
- Unlimited use of Fitness Facility
This place is Absolutely GORGEOUS and to stay for 2 night would normally set you back about $700!
Winning Bid: $270
or maybe you’d rather hand out in SoBe
