99% of the accommodation website that I found is showing very beautiful and attractive rooms and environment. All the information listed in the website would be reasonable, nice and seem like too good to be true. Especially you surely would fall in love with their accommodation by looking at their photos only. However, something would change your mind if you know how to search for accommodation reviews online. Some comments about the accommodation you interested might as bad as you could not imagine. So, be smart when selecting an accommodation for your vacation. Do not spoil your vacation just because of the place you stay.

I just signed up the newsletter subscription at AccorHotel website. Although I do not know would I book hotel in their website in the future, but I think it is no harm to subscribe their newsletter,  so that I could get update on their promotion and offer. Who knows I have chance to get some super deal which might real great and so co-incident I would be visit that destination soon. haha…It is all right to dream like this, better than what also could not do now. Even booked flight ticket but also could not book hotel due to current H1N1 problem. hai

I recheck and compare the Novotel Nathan Road Hotel at different website just now. Asiatravel showing that the cheapest deal is HKD880.00 (included tax) per night. However, AccorHotel is at HKD488.00 + 10% = HKD536.80 per night under their City super sale package! How come so big different? It is HKD343.00 different! Too good to be true huh! Oh my..this crazy offer make me so tempt to visit Hong Kong! Should I?

I think now is the best time to get most cheapest rate for hotel and flight. My friend keeps msn-ing me the Hong Kong rate which is unbelievable. She told me one night stay at Novotel Nathan Road Hong Kong is only HKD488 exclude tax. I have checked the total cost in detail once she told me the offer. All cost about HKD540 per night even at weekend. Really unbelievable! I remember I search this hotel before and it cost at least HKD800 per night! Now they are giving away 40% discount! Wow!

This is not a sponsor post. I really think it is a very useful website for those who want to get traveling information especially in hotel.

http://www.tripadvisor.co is one of the best website to search for hotel reviews. I been using it when I want to know the environment and real experience of the hotel. There have many loevley member who willing to share their experience after stayed in particular hotel. I love to read their comment and it could help me to select a better hotel.

I read many good reviews on the Yiu Fei Guesthouse. Most of the peoples stay there before commented that the room is pretty small (as what I expected).However the biggest advantage is that place is clean and secure, close to MRT station and the owner running the hostel seem trustable. I emailed them yesterday and they replied my email very fast. I think they customer service should be very nice, many peole praise their good services as well. Hmm… I am quite interested to rent this hostel now. I will keep in touch with him and see what to do next.

This is another hostel I could with better rating. Near to Tsim Sha Sui MRT station and not in Chung Hing Mansion. :p

Single room = HKD290.00
Double / Twin room = HKD360.00
Tripe room = HKD450.00
Quad room = HKD570.00

*****NEWLY RENOVATED*****
20 luxury rooms have just been refurbished in June 2008.

1. an excellent hostel. Buidling\’s outlook is horrible but don;t be put off, inside is excellent.
2. Very accessible to shopping area, fastfood chain as well as to the MTR station. The room is not so spacious but very clean and well-organized.

Found this guest house in a traveling website. No doubt that the price is very reasonable. I already email them and ask if they have any triple room because I could not find the price for Triple room. They replied me that they have a Tripe room which cost HKD450 per day.

Tripe room = HKD450
Double / Twin room = HKD350
Single room = HKD250

Below is the hostel introduction:-

If you planning to visit Florida, what type of accommodation would you select? Resorts, hotels or vacation rental? For me, I prefer Florida Villa vacation rental. Why vacation rental? Simply because I use to bring my family members for all my trip. I think vacation homes that with at least few bedrooms will be the best for us. Besides that, the rental is not as expensive as we rent for few hotel rooms too. I think this will be a budget vacation for those people who like to have group vacation too. Book a 3 bedrooms villa for 6 – 8 persons, with kitchen and other facilities surely will help us save more cost on vacations.

I only know that traveling to Oversea could be economic nowadays. We no longer have to spend so much on flight fare and accommodation now. Many air flight website offerings special fares on and off, sometimes you even can get 50% airfare from their promotion. If you book within the promotion period for 4 persons, you might save up to a thousand dollar or more. For accommodation, more and more real estate company starting to offer services of vacation rental, this type of accommodation is the most economic for family vacation. It is good to get more cheap travel offers now, that mean we have more chance to travel around the world.

Husband and I have the same opinion on traveling, both of us concern on the hotel we book for travel. In our view of point, a comfortable and luxury hotel could cure your fatigue after the long day sightseeing. Try to imagine that if you are travel to Spain, after a tired day trip, do you wish to back to a five stars Barcelona hotel, relaxing yourself or a budget hotel that noisy and dirty? I’m sure will select the 5 stars hotel, if money not a big issue.

I’m daydream to stay in the Spain’s leading suite, which voted at 2007 World Travel Europe. The Hotel Majestic’s Apartment Paseo de Gracia penthouse. Look at below picture; I could stay in the hotel whole day and night without step out of the room! One day just not enough to enjoy the facility in the room. There is a kitchen with Vitro-ceramic, blender, dishwasher, refrigerator/freezer, oven, chinery. Courtesy marble bathroom, dressing room, Bathroom with round hydro-massage bathtub, private terrace with spectacular views of the Passeig de Gràcia, 3 flat-screen TVs at Living Room, Bedroom and Bathroom. Wow…hard to imagine how fun and excited will I be in the Apartment Paseo de Gracia Penthouse!

Previously, I used to plan my vacation through some travel agents. However, I always having problem to select the date or destination that match my requirement, because they don’t have much package to select. Recently, I started to search my dream vacation package online, because I found that, some of the website would offer more cheaply and vacation package. They even provides more opportunities to get cheap flights when compare with my local agents company.

If you are staying at Australia, then you should pay a visit to Travel.com.au when you want to plan your vacation. It is one of Australia’s oldest travel websites, which provides international flights and domestic fights. I saw a cheap vacation to Koh Sami in their website, pay 4 nights cost for 8 nights stay in Koh Samui. Package includes of return economy airfares to Koh Samui, 8 nights stay at Paradise beach Resort, Breakfast, welcome drink and complimentary shuttle. It’s value package. Check it out at the website.

I submitted the booking the Awana Genting Highland Golf And Country Resort online with my sister Vacation Club Membership last week. However, today they have reply me that no apartment is available on the date I’m requested. I already expected this booking won’t be confirm due to school holiday is super peak season. I know there not going to make it.

Anyway, I have planning to bring my daughter and family members to enjoy the fun of theme park. So, I probably will go to Genting plaza and make the reservation directly. Yes, usually they are apartment available if you walk in to their sales office and pay immediately. Of course, the price will be expensive than what you see online. Never mind, just once a while still worth to pay for it. It cost about RM450.00 for 2 bedroom apartment.

If I have change to visit the most populous city in Australia, Fairfield City Farm and Cook + Philip Park will be the places I will visit when I’m at Sydney. I know I am have no chance to go travel alone, I sure will bring my children and husband to the travel, so I think the farm-based attraction like Fairfield City Farm will be a good place for my children to enjoy. Besides the native and farmyard animals, we can enjoy their variety of exciting shows and exhibits too.

Cook + Philip Park actually are a place that I want to have fun. I want to see what kind of unique public facility they have, all those facility sound very interesting when I read from the traveling website. I want to see their art indoor aquatic, fitness and recreation complex. If possible, sure I want to experience in their facility, swimming, gym, ball-court, and other recreational activities.

I am so keen to book the hotels in Sydney now, I can get the cheap hotels booking if my budget is not enough…Opps…I forgot that I haven’t have a budget for Sydney trip yet.

We arrived Redang Island airport at about 10.30am, they have a bus specially fetch us to Berjaya Hotel. But remember to check clearly which hotel you are booking with, because they have Berjaya Redang Beach Resort and berjaya Redang SPA resort which departure from airport with the same bus.

Here we are! Berjaya Redang Beach Resort

Views from our room, that is a 4 rooms chalet which should be a deluxe room. I’m not sure the conditions in the room but it looks better than our superior room. Ohh..human always hope for better one.

Here is our superior room with twins bed. Room is kind of small, however it have no problem to fit 2 adult and 1 child. I’m kind of disappointed with the room environment actually. not the type of 5 stars hotel room.

I just uploaded the picture I captured on Redang Island, below is Restaurant Aima which just located 3 mins walk time from Berjaya Redang Beach Resort. This restaurant is one of the Malay stall you can enjoy a cheaper meal if compare to Berjaya Redang restaurant. But I strongly suggest you to try their fried rice but not others.

We ordered below dish on the first day we arrived Redang, fried kangkung, dried egg, Tomyom seafood and spicy chicken. Somewhat disappointed because all dish was tasteless. However, the fried rice we have on the next day is unexpected good.

No matter how cliché it might be, there really is such a thing as island time. Whether you’re staying in one of their Barbados villas or one of their Tortola villas, CVOA has the best selection of Caribbean villas you’ll find anywhere. With a Caribbean villa rental from CVOA you can get away to the islands, relax, throw away your watch, and enjoy your vacation the way it should be done  in style. Look at their site and see why their Caribbean villas are the most sought after.

The Flamingo Las Vegas is owned and operated by Harrah’s Entertainment with 3,626 hotel rooms and 77,000 ft² casino. It is located in a great location.
