    Just booked all inclusive round trip to Cancun for two people for $1300 total for 5 days. That might be an option.

    Does that include air as well? That is a pretty good price if it does.

    It makes it a lot cooler outside when you can walk down the street with a tall boy.

    It will be hot no doubt about it.

    I tried the 20 doller trick at the Luxor last memorial day. Me and my buddies got rejected, the guy said something about a busy weekend even though we got there on the monday.
    I think it all depends on who you go up to to check in...

    That's a good deal. Where did you do this through?

    If you going in August go to the West Coast of Mexico Cabo/Puerto Vallarta. August is Hurricane season and thats the last thing you want to deal with just before your wedding.

    The chances are slim of actually being there during a hurricane and it's much cheaper. It's worth the risk.

    I stayed at TI about two years ago (right after the remodel). It is very cool. A very young and fun crowd. And the bed was the best I have ever slept in!
