1. If your schedule can take it, invite friends or family who live far away to meet you at the destination. This way, you can visit and vacation at the same time. It will be far less expensive than if you took two trips (one for a vacation and the other to visit family), and you’ll create a lot more memories.

2. Set your budget and stick to it. Set your budget before you make your travel plans. Once you’ve returned from your trip, use any leftover money from the budget to treat yourself to something nice. This is a way to give yourself a big high five for sticking to your plan.

3. Don’t stay in a hotel if there are more than 2 of you going. You can stay in a condo for a much cheaper price. In addition, you will have more room, the condo’s are all top rate and you won’t have to eat out as often. Use a condo card and save yourself $600.

4. Pack with intelligence. You know you’re not going to wear most of the things you normally bring, so take half of what you normally pack. Make sure you have the essentials though. It’s costly to purchase certain things at vacation spots.

5. When scheduling your flight, remember it’s normally cheapest to fly out first thing in the morning. Yes, it’s early but you could save a lot of money. Especially if you are traveling with a crowd.

6. Eating out can blow your budget. By staying in a condo, you can go to the grocery store once you get to your destination and stock up on food. Eating out on vacations is really nice, but really expensive too. Try to limit the amount of times you eat out. Remember that budget!

7. Plan a loose itinerary of the places you want to go once you reach your destination. Many of them will more than likely offer different payment plans for certain times of the day and the year.

8. When eating out, try lunch or breakfast. Either meal is normally less expensive than dinner.

Above all else. Enjoy your vacation this year and celebrate the money you spent while so many discounts are being offered.

Condo Q Card
The Condo Q Card is for the person that travels very little or does so only out of necessity. The Condo Q Card is explained on the Condo Q Card page in detail. In short, it is a single use card which can be used to save $600 on a 1-week stay in a 2,3,4, or 5 bedroom condo in over 100 countries. Not only is the cost less than a hotel, but it’s a full blown condo instead of a cramped hotel room.

CondoQuest Card
The CondoQuest Card is for people who travel two or more times a year. Especially helpful if you have children. We all know what children + a cramped up hotel room equals (chaos!). The Condoquest Card is explained in detail on the CondoQuest Card page.  In short, it is a multiple use card. In fact, use it as much as you want and save $600 each and every time you use it.

When you purchase your card. ($99 for the Condo Q Card and $199 for the Condoquest card), you are also given access to a membership web site. When you book your travel from this web site, your discount will be automatically calculated for you.

Yes, it is just that easy.
