Are Special rates/deals always offered?

I've been looking at the DLP UK site and pricing different offers and it seems like there's a discount/offer for every month.

For instance, the current autumn offer of "Stay 2 nights, get 2 nights free" expires on Feb. 24th. Does that mean that a new offer will be announced on Feb. 25th?

possibly not straightaway - but usually within 2 weeks of an old offer expiring, a new one comes along .

I know you're not clairvoyant but any idea what the offer COULD be? We're looking at early Dec. and just 2 adults so is it likely to be better than 2 nights free? For a Mon - Fri (4 nights) we're getting £422 for Cheyenne or +£96 for SL and that includes the hotel, 5 day tickets and b'fast. Eurostar isn't available yet (for cheap prices) so a bit reluctant to book hotels in case travel is crazy expensive so a bit chicken and egg situation going on here!!

if 4 nights is your preferred length of stay, i'd say book the current 2 nights free offer .

if 2 or 3 nights is your preferred package length of stay, i'd say wait for a better offer - for early December midweek dates you have a good chance of a flash sale price (but this does mean holding off booking until possibly late October or early November). And check other countries versions of the DLP site too, they often have better offers on a stay of less than 4 nights, compared to the UK site.

For comparison, last year DLP had a flash sale for November and December dates, I priced up the Santa Fe (or the Cheyenne) for 3 nights, 2 adults, including breakfast and 4-day park tickets each, and it was under £300 total.

thanks for the advice, think we'll book before this offer ends and hope for cheap Eurostar.

Isn't the current winter offer, 2 nights + 2 nights free for bookings up until the 15th April?

Yes it is now but wasnt when the OP started the thread

This is our dilemma too. Want to book for early December in either SL or NPB - can go for 4 nights, but 3 will be fine too. Keep hovering over the 'book now' button. I don't think I could realistically hold my nerve until November! We would be flying there for the first time and I cannot get flight prices for December anywhere yet.
