Stupid policy

It is simple discrimination company! You have to prove american citizen to book a hotel????I travel the whole world and I Never hear about it.
Hope that anyone who born in another country or have some member if there family from another country never book with this company!

Stupid policy, promotional discount only apply if both couples are american citizens!!! Im a legal citizen, and my husband ( american citizen).
If you dont have hotels available, just dont sell it!!!

My answer because I can not post it,
Never mind !!! I book on BOOKING.com for exactly the same price! Any one ask me for my citizen...EVER

No big deal.

Hi Mariana,

Thank you for your feedback and apologize for inconvenience. YOU HAVE TO MEET THE RESORT"S ELIGIBLITY REQUIREMENTS TO GET THE PROMOTIONAL RATE. YOU CAN BOOK ANY HOTEL FOR THE FULL RATE. BookVIP is the largest provider of first time vistor motional packages in the world. The reason the packages are up to 83% off the retail rate is because the resort's are sponsoring the promotional rate in exchange for meeting the eligibility requirements and attending the resot preview. Our prices are up be up to 83% less than Booking.com which is we have done over 1 million vacations

The resorts set the elibility requirements NOT BookVIP The eligiblity requirements are listed at the bottom of each hotel offer web page listed "Terms & Conditions" We have hundreds of different promotional packages with different requirements. Some resort offer promotioonal rates for singles as well and for residents of countries outside the US as well. Please contact me directly at James@bookp.com

The reason there wasnt a second refund for $39, is because you never charged.

A complete scam - stay away!!!

A complete scam. Asking for personal information and after telling you you were approved they keep on changing their mind.
No refund was given to us after cancellation.
We’re disputing it with the credit card company.

The resort is a bit dated

The resort is a bit dated. Our room had several things wrong and it smelled liked an old wet mildew mop. After, several complaints we were moved to a smaller but much better room.

We loved Cabo, Everyone must go see with your own eyes

The staff was outstanding. The food was great. We enjoyed the live night shows.

TOTALLY UNETHICAL WOULDN'T RECOMMEND IT…

TOTALLY UNETHICAL WOULDN'T RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE FRAUDS - One of the worst organisations you'll deal with they advertise it as $499 all inclusive for the Krystal Cancun resort but dont tell you you have to sit through a time share presentation , later during the call they also added another $100 saying its hotel fee etc also was asking for my as well as my wife's annual income which doesn't seem right if your booking a vacation.

Hello Varunkaushik,

Thank you for your feedback and I am sorry the we were unable to accept your business..BookVIP is the leading providing of promotional packges. The reason the packages are up to 83% is because the resorts are subsidzing the discount in exchange for meeting the resort's eligiblity requirements Since the resort is subsidizing the cost of the promotional package, the resort sets the eligibility requirements NOT BookVIP. The requirement's are in Terms & Conditions listed at the bottom of each special offer web page which we go over with every customer before they are charged. Additionally, each resort has different requirements and we have promotional rates for married, cohab and single. My apologies if that wasnt explained properly As an owner I stand behind our promotional packages 100% and you can reach out to me directly James@bookvip.com

I am proud in the fact we have sent over 1 million happy customer and have more customer video testimonials reviews than any travel web site in the world. http://www.bookvip.com/sitereviews

!!!!!!!!!!There are No Good Deals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Complete Garbage Scammers. Planned and Signed up months ahead. I was under the impression I was receiving this deal due to my time volunteered to sit in a timeshare seminar for 90 minutes. I had no problem with that being part of the deal. What I did have a problem with was i had PAID and they received my money and held on to it for a couple months only to tell me once i was ready to make a reservation That me and my Fiance do not qualify. Okay so you get away with just taking my money for a bit? I am now waiting for my refund.....waiting for MY money...and waiting on a confirmation email. A HUGE waste of my time and maybe my money too. Who knows ill wait and find out. For the people that run this company I can only imagine you are some of the sleaziest, corrupt, immoral, hardly human People. And for the people that work for them I am sorry you have to live such an unsatisfying life knowing you help these kind of soulless People. I promise you could be doing something better with your life. "There are no GOOD DEALS". If I end up not receiving my money or if i have to wait any extra time after i am expected to receive it then all Hell will break loose. You deny me of my planned and paid for Trip because I am not 26 yrs of age??? But age is a number and i bet you dont know who your dealing with. Stay away Stay away Stay away. Sure wish I had that refund now so i can plan my whole new Vacation from scratch. Complete waste of my time. And will be a waste of yours as well.

After booking

After booking, it required that we call the office. After calling the office, they say that the booking required a "Married Couple or Family". WHERE WAS THAT ON THE BOOKING PAGE? It is simple discrimination and you should not be f**king with people's lives. This is absolute garbage and I would avoid them at all costs.

I love BookVIP!!

I love BookVIP!!! I recently stayed at The Berkley in Las Vegas and it was AMAZING. We had a 2 bedroom suite and I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that the suite had 2 separate kitchens...I was out done!! This was my second BookVIP vacation and the accommodations were remarkable again. This company is a game-changer when it comes to saving money on vacation!

I would definitely recommend this company and am looking forward to my next BookVIP vacation.

Total Scam

Total Scam! Booked a reservation nearly 5 months ago. Called to confirm it a few weeks before our scheduled departure. I was told that everything was fine and that I would receive confirmation within a few days of travel. Called the day of travel because I had not received an email. Sure enough the reservation has been canceled because the room that I had requested was no longer available. Of course they said they would issue a refund however, considering the day of travel obviously very inconvenient and very disappointing for our family. Not worth a dime. booked a reservation nearly 5 months ago. Called to confirm it a few weeks before our scheduled departure.

Hi Lisa,

All the BookVIP first time promotional are up to 80% off the retail rate which in many cases is savings from $1000- $1500. The resort's are subsdizing the cost of the room in exchange for meeting the resort's eligiblity requirments. Unfortunately, the Resort's set for eligbility requirement's for the promotional rates NOT BookVIP and they do not allow for Orlando anyone from Seminole county with the promotional rate.
