Over the years I’ve posted tons of tips about planning for summer vacation, so this year instead of reinventing the wheel I’m going to summarize my best tips as well as share reader tips that were shared on a recent Facebook post. Some old posts you might want to check out are:
4 Frugal Planning Tips
6 Tips for a Cheap Beach Vacation
How to Have a Great Vacation on a Tight Budget
Planning a Frugal Vacation
Like Christmas, summer vacation is something that probably happens every year, and so over time there are tricks and tips you can learn to make it budget-friendly and simple.
Planning for Summer Vacation 2025
Plan ahead and set a budget
The most obvious first tip is to PLAN! On a recent Facebook post, Abby N. said that her family typically plans trips 1-2 years in advance so they can save up the money and plan for the cost. This is a great way to get ready for your trip. For example, if you spent $600 last summer on a vacation in July, start setting aside $50/month in August to get ready for the following year. Even if you’re just now starting to plan, you can still divide your overall budget by the number of months until then and set aside money each month.

Look for deals on everything, especially lodging
There are always ways to save if you’re wiling to look. You can save on lodging by using sites like Hotels.com, and you can save on activities like Kirsten A. by using Groupon. Christy M. shared this advice: “We travel quite often for sports… I book through my Ibotta app, which leads me to another site such as Hotels.com or booking.com and continue to use just one of those programs to earn free nights. It has worked well for us as we travel to many different places and those nights add up quicker than you think and you get a little something back on Ibotta. Happy travels!”
We recently got a good deal on several nights during a conference by booking a room on AirBnb through a new host. They offered 20% off for the first 3 people to stay with them. This helped them get good ratings (we had a great stay), and it saved us a lot of money! Keep your eyes open and you’ll find the deals.
Other readers have also shared their tips:
- Robin W.: “I’m signed up for a few different property management mailings. They are always running some sort of specials and usually at much better rates than just looking on your own.”
- Lauren V.: “I rent through timeshare owners (specifically Wyndham) and stay at very nice places for half the cost and don’t have to worry about all the hassle of owning a timeshare. Been doing it for about 4 years and love it.”
- Lynn S.: “For hotels, we search which one we want and call them directly. It beats any price online. Also, we’ve used Costco Travel.”
- Melany M.: “The app VRBO has saved me lots!”
