In the current economic climate, more and more families are finding it harder to afford that annual vacation. As finances become tighter, the family vacation is one of the first luxuries that end up being sacrificed. It is no wonder that many hotels and vacation facilities are seeing a decline in visitors at present and some of them are struggling to continue trading. Many families are considering camping and self catering options when it comes to their time away and some are even staying at home until the financial situation is more stable and interest rates drop. With some small companies going into closure there are many people who are struggling to find employment, especially in sectors such as construction where the instability is really being felt. So what alternatives are people considering when it comes to their vacations? One sector which seems to be hanging on and riding out the economic storm is that of the smaller hotel. The bed and breakfast trends at the moment are showing that these establishments of 8 or less letting rooms seem to be coping quite well.

There are a number of reasons for their ability to manage in this less than favourable economic climate. One of the main factors is their suitability for short visits. If you are unable to afford a whole week or fortnight package vacation, you can be more flexible when booking at a bed and breakfast hotel. Short stays of only a couple of nights are possible and this can mean not only smaller bills, but less time taken off work… essential if you are self employed or do not have any paid vacation time from the your employer. Bed and breakfast trends show that most people only actually stay at the establishment for two or three nights.  Read more...

The weather isn’t always the most ideal, yet, it can be every bit as good as the peak season.

We’ve gone in peak season and had crummy weather and we’ve traveled in the off season and had great weather, it’s always a crap shoot any way so we take the chance.

Normally, we get awesome air travel rates in the off season to start of the trip.

We usually only book the first night or maybe the second and then we hit the streets and the hotel lobbies searching for the booklets, newspapers and coupon guide books.

Last time we did this, it was in January, right after the new year and everything was dead.  Read more...

Normally, I’m not one for saying that having kids should hold you back from doing the things you love to do. To the un-ending misery of fellow travelers, we took our babies on 12 hour plane trips to the other side of the world where we let them sleep on our laps while we ate long gourmet meals.
