Hmm, I had a different experience. Prices were higher when I went. Maybe timing matters.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try going midweek next time.

I was there in February and prices were slightly higher.
Spent about $51/day all-in. Quality was good.
My tip: midweek is golden hour.

Spot on with the prices. That matches what I paid in February.
