Travel Deals Website?
Hi everyone. I was at the hair salon one night and someone mentioned a website that has awesome travel deals similar to Groupon deals. It wasn't Groupon and I cannot remember what it was called. I've not been able to get in contact with the lady that shared the information. As an example, she said there was a deal that was a 5-day trip to Puerto Rico for two including air fare, hotel and I think she said a spa package that was something like 60% or 70% off. She said that the site emails daily deals at incredible rates. Would any of you know of such a website?
Thank you!

It could be Living Social, Groupon, SniqueAway, Perfect Escapes, Travelzoo, Vacations To Go. My cousin just went on a trip to Costa Rica that she got through Living Social.

Sounds like cheapcaribbean.com.
I got a great deal to a resort in Mexico and it included the hotel, air, and meals (all inclusive). My wife and I had a blast.
If this isn't what you want, e-mail me and I'll gather a bunch of inexpensive websites for you.
Good luck to you and yours

I don't know of anything like that and I would steer clear of one if I saw it.
You know the old saying... You get what you pay for.
We do a lot of travel and I am the one who books all personal and business. I only deal directly with Southwest and American airlines for airfare and the Hilton family of hotels.
SW and AA advertise deals on their sites. You can usually negotiate a better deal at a hotel one an one. For instance, my hubby goes to Houston at least once a month. He stays at a hotel with posted rates of $200/ night. Because he's there monthly, I negotiated corporate rate for our company and he pays $89 a night.
Many of the discounters will not be around if you have any trouble. Airlines favor the people who book directly vs discounters when bumping, etc.
I'm not saying all discounters are bad. Just be very careful and read the fine print carefully. If it sounds too good to be true..... It is not a deal
Enjoy!

It is a Living Social website but just for travel. At least the one that I subscribe to is that website. Here is the link: ____@____.com
They have only travel deals at 50-70% off. Hope this helps and happy travels.
Sorry, this is the actual website and the other is their email http://livingsocial.com/escapes/

My friend is with Rovia. We saved $1500 on a hotel in Europe last year over what the travel agencies quoted. I also like their search engine.
Her website is
