@Crispy and @marina-rodriguez, I got the same house with your rooms under $1k vs. the $1.2k paid last year. Last year, we did 6 nights because it was expensive but a good deal, as they offered the “long-term rate” to entice us past the 3-4 night range. This year, it’s a new management team, and they simply placed a 5-night minimum for the race weekend vs. a sweetener to get us past the 3-4 nights.
Booked!! This may be the farthest out I’ve actually planned a “vacation.” Looking forward to it!
