Big differences in villa prices for Easter week.

Post by Need2GetAway »

I've noticed that some villas are "off season" for the week before Easter, and some are "in season" -- and what a big difference in price! I wonder why that is?

For years, everyone had the same season, April 15th to December 15th.
Because of April vacations, some companies decided to change their off season rates to start later.

When we travel the end of April, we will only pay off season rates...'cuz I am cheap :lol:

Me too Xislandgirl. I changed our dates from dead of winter (would be nice to get away from) to April for the lower rates, so there's no way I'd pay in season rates for a place.

I almost postponed till June because I was only finding on-season rates for houses in late April. Finally I found a steal and went for it.

But you are right the in season vs. off season were all over the place.
