When you plan your holiday make sure you get as much information about the hotel and accommodations in advance as possible, to be certain that you will have all the features and facilities you want. Before you finalize your reservation, contact the hotel directly and ask for details about issues that will influence your comfort.
Examples may be as follows:
Are any disruptive construction projects planned or currently ongoing at the hotel?
Has the hotel suffered any damages from natural disasters?
Make a decision on exactly what kind of room you want, and request it in advance. Think if you are looking for a quiet, sunny spot with a garden view or maybe a room with a balcony overlooking the ocean. It is important if you want a non-smoking room and a king-sized bed. Consider if you need a room with business facilities, for example a fax machine and data ports.

Many times I was able to save quite a lot of money by flying into the Newark, NJ airport instead of into a New York airport, despite of the fact that they are about the same distance from my destination in New York City. Recently I saved $200 by flying into Philadelphia instead of Atlantic City, then I simply took a $6 train ride (it took 1.5 hours) to Atlantic City. Travelocity and Orbitz sites provide the feature to automatically search neighboring airports for you. You might also want to check out Kayak as it assumes you want to search nearby airports, and it gives you a handy list of the prices for each airport it finds.
