Last month, we told you how to get a 30% discount on a four-night stay at any of the three Loews hotels inside Universal Orlando Resort. Now there's a way to get two nights free—a 40% discount!—on a five-night Universal Orlando vacation package. Families that book three nights of accommodation plus three-day admission will get two more nights free, which works out to a 40% savings on the five-night stay. There are two ways to take advantage of this deal:
- Starting at $689 for a family of four, you get five nights accommodation at a hotel near Universal Orlando, five days of theme park admission, and complimentary shuttle transportation. This works out to as little as $138 a night for a family of four (based on two adults and two kids 3 to 9).
- Starting at $1,144 for a family of four, a VIP version of the package gives you five nights accommodation at one of the three Loews hotels located inside Universal Orlando Resort: Royal Pacific Resort, Hard Rock Hotel, or Portofino Bay Resort (see our review), plus five days of theme park admission with the "Universal Express" VIP fastpass that lets you skip the lines at most rides and attractions. This works out to as little as $229 a night for a family of four (based on two adults and two kids 3 to 9). Essentially you're paying an extra $91 a night for the in-park location and line-skipping privileges—well worth it if you can swing the added expense.
To take advantage of this offer, you need to book by January 31 and travel by June 27, 2009. If you go before March 31, you'll get an added bonus: a Universal Orlando Savings Guide worth $150 in shopping and dining discounts.
