[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Their website is fdrholidays.com. And it has all the rates and current specials (looks like 50% off now; we got 35% off last spring).  It is all-inclusive, although you can pay extra ($6/hour) for babysitting in the evening.[/quote]

I'm not sure, but here's what I remember/looked up.  I budgeted $5K for the trip (including airfare and things like getting passports for the kids), and it was less than that.  I think our airfare was ~$400 each.  FDR with the 35% discount special they were advertising cost $2280 for five nights for two adults and two kids (the kids are free).  We paid ~$20/night for babysitting on a few nights, and tipped some more to our nanny at the end of the week ($100, I think).  And we split $180 with another family for a private transfer to the resort so we could install carseats comfortably (optional, you could use the free transfer instead).  There were no surprise expenses or other fees, except for a massage at the resort spa.

So it's not cheap, but I don't think it's outrageous, either.  We hope to go back next year.[/quote]
