4 tips to find a great Florida hotel deal

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Florida is during August, September, and November, when hotel prices are at their lowest. Domestic travellers should aim to book their flights at least 2 months in advance to secure better deals, while international travellers should plan to book at least 3 months ahead for the best prices. To fully enjoy the main attractions, including beautiful beaches and exciting theme parks, a stay of at least 2-3 days is recommended. This way, you can experience Florida's offerings without breaking the bank, making it a great value for money trip for those on a budget.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: If you're searching for last-minute deals to Florida, there are plenty of options available. To explore discounted rates on hotels close to your travel date, head to the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute DealsOpens in a new window section on Hotels.com. You could find great offers that suit your budget. Additionally, consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to keep informed about flash sales and unique last-minute promotions, so you’re more likely to seize opportunities for savings.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on factors like the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. As a result, being flexible with your travel dates could mean you may save on hotel expenses in Florida.
  4. Consider your location: Staying in the heart of major cities in Florida can provide unparalleled convenience and easy access to local attractions, but this advantage often comes at a premium. Accommodations in bustling city centres are generally more expensive due to their proximity to popular sights, dining, and entertainment. In contrast, smaller towns and rural areas are more likely to offer affordable options for those willing to venture a bit further. For visitors seeking to save on lodging, choosing hotels outside the city centre can be a more economical choice, though it may necessitate additional travel to reach key attractions.
