Luxurylink.com - Experience?? Advice?
Anyway, wanted to know if anyone out there has ever used this site. Is it a good deal? Or is there better vacation packages out there?
I've been subscribed to Luxurylink.com for a couple of years now - have yet to actually buy anything. Since most of their stuff is vacation packages, it costs a lot of money so I'm afraid to risk buying.

Luxury Link
We certainly have nothing but good things to say about Luxury Link. We bid on a trip to the Amazon with International Expeditions and had a wonderful time. There have been reports on the Fodors website of people who have also bid with no complaints.

Great Package - Luxury Link
My family stayed at Hotel Hershey for 5 days during the 2002 Indenpendence day weekend. Beautiful place, great service, plus wouderful food. We had a great time.
We will visit Manoir Hovey, Canada at New year 2005.
I got these two package thru the Luxury Link too.
As "LuxuryLink" said, they offer nice packages at very affordable prices.
I hope I have more time and money to enjoy their packages. I highly recommend them.

I've used it once on a stay at Lygon Arms in the U.K. and both the property and LuxuryLink performed exactly as advertised/promised in every respect.
However lately, I've noticed that the packages don't seem as keenly priced and often can be easily beaten elsewhere on the net, sometimes just by going to the hotel's own web page. Also, few of the auctions I've looked at get into a bidding contest, which probably is further proof that the prices aren't so great.

I've used Luxurylink.com three times. Twice we went to the Intercontinental Hotel in Puerto Rico, and once for the Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain. We were extremely satisfied every time. ^

Stikliai is probably THE most exclusive place in Old Town Vilnius, quite pricey too... But the location is unbeatable.
You probably know that it has a dizzying array of celebrities who stayed there. I usually stay at other places which are cheaper (like Centro Kubas on the edge of the City Hall Square), but some require knowledge of Lithuanian for an effective booking and communication.
Smart choice about Stikliai anyway. ^
I hope you liked Vilnius. I grew up there.
