The total, before you go

$3,010 for two · 9 nights · flights, hotel, taxes, fees & the resort fee

Flights $1,272 + hotel $1,501 + resort fee $237, taxes in · a checked bag each adds about $160

United · with a stop · 10h 43m

The catch: It's one stop and 10h 43m on the way out, none of the three hotels offer free cancellation, and a checked bag is about $160 for two.

Worth it if you want nine nights of volcanoes, snorkeling and 80°F days; skip it if a 10h 43m one-stop flight is a dealbreaker.
