If I still have to go via bus, what are comfort levels on those? Can you comfortably sleep to the point that after arrival leave stuff at hotel and go sightseeing?
Did you notice how long a bus ride this is?
Worth every penny of $300 to avoid that IMO.

All I see on that route is executive, not leito or semi-leito sleeper bus.

Executivo
All "executive" buses have a toilet department, air conditioning, a sound and video system, and a minibar with cold and hot drinks. Seating comfort is also slightly improved:
depth: 45cm
width: 45cm
three levels of inclination, maximum angle 40 degrees to the vertical
distance between seats: 80cm

If we're looking at the same page, it's a straight line from point to point, laid over a map. Not a road route, a straight line.
