I just booked 4 nights at the Star Island Resort & Country Club through hotelkingdom.com http://www.discounthotelsorlando.com/orstarisland.htm. They are offering an incredible rate of $40.90 for the first four nights and $60.90 for the next three (max. stay is seven nights) with the condition that you attend a 90 minute sales tour and presentation. You have to qualify (read more about it at the link above). They do charge a deposit of $32.70 to your credit card (which is applied to the total amount) and a $10.90 cancellation fee with at least 72 hour notice).
Has anyone stayed there? I visited their web site www.starislandresort.com and it certainly looks astonishing! Could it be too good to be true? They just have suite accommodations (one of them is a mini suite) so I guess nothing bad could happen about that.
My other choice is Dixie Landings for $104.00 a night with the AP discount. What should I do? do I take the risk? Is it worth it to waste two hours to attend the presentation? I really wanted to stay on site but the incredible rate at the Star Island is impossible to beat.
