Why it's a deal: In a recent Kayak search, we found a round-trip flight between Denver and San Antonio in late June for $403 (Frontier). The hotel will cost about $538 for a three-night stay in late June, including all taxes. So if you booked independently, you would expect to pay about $672 per person, including all taxes. This package offers the same booking for $437 per person, including all taxes—a savings of $235.
Lodging: You'll stay at The Westin Riverwalk . The 539-room hotel is right on the Paseo del Rio, a walk with cafés, shops, and gardens to explore. The hotel also has an outdoor heated pool, running maps by Runner's World magazine, and Venezuelan dark chocolates for every guest. Note that there are other hotels available, such as The Westin La Cantera Resort and the Radisson San Antonio Downtown Market Square. The starting price for each will depend on your gateway city.
More: Add nights from $80 per person.
Before you go: Transfers are not included. A taxi ride from the airport to the hotel will cost $20 to $30, or you can take the SA Trans shuttle, which starts at $18 per person.
