Rise in Prices for Mexico Hotels?


Recommended Posts

Help - Rising Hotel Rates?!

 

I'm planning on getting married at the Iberostar Tucan June 2013. I already have my deposit down for the date, so we're ready to rock and roll.

 

Unfortunately, I've seen a HUGE spike in the nightly rate. When we first were looking in August, the room rate was around $188 total, so $100/person. But now it's shot up to $286/night! This is way out of our guest's budget and I'm concerned that the prices won't go down.

 

Does anyone have any insight into this or are you experiencing the same thing? I'm wishing we had done the $200 room rate when we booked it, but at the time it was more expensive then what we were seeing online. If the rates stay that high, we'll have to move resorts and lose the deposit all together which would be horrible b/c I'm really in love with the Tucan :(

 

Thanks so much,

Jessica

it is actually quite normal for room rates to go up.  Normally there is an EBB rate that is a reduced rate for early bookings.  It is why we recommend group blocks for weddings.  Not only to guarantee your rooms will be available to your guests but at a lower rate.

 

Most wedding guests will try to book 2-4 months before the wedding and by that time the hotel may even be sold out.  We have a hotel that has sold out for some weekends in May already and it had sold out by september!

 

You may see that the rate will get higher as you get closer to your wedding date and rooms get booked = less vacancies.

 

If you want to see what rates we can try to lock in try one of the BDW Travel Agents.  We Specialize in Destination weddings.  You can contact us HERE!
