Spring Break Virgin Take 2

So I didn't get much in the way of a response - oh well!

Just could someone tell me the cheapest place to book a room for 1 for the week of 1-8 March? I've been qouted $1000+ in every hotel on the beach. I've got the flights sussed now, just need the bed.

There's beers a pleanty for anyone with helpful advice.

Thankyou

mate,

there is hardly a cheap place to find for a single person... unless you want to bring a tent! try to find some people and share a room with them. its much cheaper and its more fun... we did it last year and had a blast!

Flights were £420ish, flying heathrow->Paris->Atlanta->Panama City Beach! When you thinking of going Swansea?

I think i'm just going to have to pay the extra and get a double room to myself. All of my friends are either working, have lectures, or just can't afford it.

Check out the Chateau. It's one of the best hotels down there, and you should be able to find a room for one person for much cheaper than $1000. Their website is www.chateaumotel.com
Otherwise, check out the Days Inn. That should be somewhat inexpensive also.

hey now, a thousand bucks a week is a pretty good price compared to what it'll be as spring break gets closer, so book as early as possible! a lot of you spring breakers will be surprised how many condo's have gone up along the strip since last year.

$634 for the sandpiper?!?!

We're paying $960 for the Chateau. It is closer to everything though, but the SP does have the "World Famous Tiki Bar"
