Escapes.ca is basically as cheap if not better than travel agents
We just booked a week at Riu Santa Fe in Cabo for $1400 Posted via RS Mobile |

Each person, 4 people all inclusive 5 star ocean view rooms
Regular rooms are about $90 cheaper
You can easily get a 3.5/4 star for like 850-900 for a week anywhere in Mexico but the improvement in food alone at 5 stars is worth the extra money Posted via RS Mobile |

Miami is nice but if it's only a 3 or 4 day getaway, i wouldn't suggest it. Travel alone will take 2 full days away from you

^yeah he says 3-7. However i stayed for 7 days and i twas great - in mexico, you don't do anything except lie on the beach, drink and party. Miami is the exact same thing, but the food is better than resort food imo
also mexico and most 7 day resort destinations take longer than miami to get to...miami does NOT take a full day at all!

I got to visit los cabos mexico last year and it was great, sunny weather, beachside, all inclusive resort with food and liquor, entertainment, buffet and fine dining, tour bus to and from airport. Absolutely no extra money on top unless you venture out to excursions or shopping.
Lay on the beach or pool and just relax with full service to food and liquor. Ppl there are so courteous and polite, get to meet other tourist and just carefree.
We booked through westjet vacations and full package, flight and resort, range from $800-$1100 per person, 5-7 days is worthwhiled.
You can check out vacation thread under los cabos and find my photos.
Otherwise, for some sunny weather and a quick getaway, head to San Francisco, flight cost is reasonable and hotel, check out some great sightseeing and shopping.
Fisherman wharf and downtown westfield shopping is nice esp. travelling with female companion. SFO car rental company offers some great deals for <less than one week.
Again, through westjet vacations packages.
Often time, WJ offers some special giveaways with your packages like car rentals, coupons to your resort, wine service, food service etc.
Have fun! Posted via RS Mobile |

anyways the cruise its about 7 days long depending on where you go.

Priceline and Expedia.
All inclusive?
You got Mexico all inclusives, try Cuba as well. Except that everyone I ask regarding food in Cuba say its so so, because the food is bland. Posted via RS Mobile |
