I am looking at booking a stay at the Hotel Xcaret Mexico with my family. We stayed there a year ago but it looks like the rates have doubled since then. I am now showing a 7 night stay in Jan around $3600.

I am seeing that if I search for hotel + airfare package the total comes out to only small amount more that the price of the hotel alone. It irritating that that they are pricing so radically different when bundling because now if I use points separately I am paying significantly more. For the package I am showing around $3700.

I was planning booking the flights with miles (WN or BA on AA metal) and using chase points though the travel portal for the hotel. There doesn't appear to be anyway to do travel packages through the Chase travel portal. What do you think I should do or any advise is appreciated. Thanks.
