Hot Stuff From Hotwire

Summer is a time for families to go travelling together, to instill fond members that will last for a lifetime.

But in this economic climate, deals need to be found!

So, if you'd like to go to North Ft. Lauderdale , IN MID-AUGUST, you can find hotels for $51 a night. That's a savings of 35% off normal room rates.

However, to get these great rates you and your family will have to stay in the hotel for 4 nights. Well, it should be possible to find something to do in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for that number of days!

Like Priceline, you don't learn the name of the hotel until you actually book it, but each of these sites have partners that are name-brand hotels.

So think sun, think fun, think Ft. Lauderdale in August.

(Okay, what's to see in Ft. Lauderdale? Well, the city is known as the Venice of America because of its extensive canal system. Visit the world's largest drive-in movie theater, with 13 screens! Historical sites abound.)
