It's like shopping on eBay, but instead of bidding on someone's old winter coat, you're bidding on a vacation. That's right. As some travelers realized they couldn't afford that summer trip they booked, hotels and resorts were left to list empty rooms on auction sites at prices way below retail value.
We read about this on CNN.com and thought it was absolutely genius.So how do you snag a great vacation at an even better price? Do your homework and browse these sites:
- Luxury Link - Resorts go through an extensive selection process to see if it meets the site's standards. Luxury Link makes reservations for you, but there's a booking fee.
- Florida Vacation Auction - Certain properties might charge a cleaning fee
- Sky Auction - Search anything from resort vacations to cruises. There's a $20 processing fee for each winning bid.
