♿ Accessibility — stated, never assumed

Tell us what you need. On every stay we show the property's own stated features, verbatim — we never label a room "accessible" on our own say-so — and your itinerary carries the property's number so you can confirm before you rely on it.

🎖️ Member rates — check before you book us

Military & veteran, AAA/AARP, teacher and first-responder rates often run 10–15% under the public price — and most can't be booked through partners like us. The 60-second check: open the hotel's own site, find "special rates," compare with our total. If theirs wins, take it — that's the honest answer. Service members and veterans: also look up Armed Forces Vacation Club — space-available resort weeks most people in uniform have never heard of.

🧒 Kids, priced honestly

A child seat, a kids-stay-free policy and the lap-infant rule are real money on a family trip — and the industry hides all three. Flip on "Traveling with little kids" in Step 2 below and every one of them is priced or stated right on the cards.

✈️ Flight round trip · totals for 2 travelers, all-in

LEAVES:
🕐 Your time windows — flights outside them step aside; the total follows the ones that fit
No flights match those settings on this route — widen the time windows above, or tap “Any time”, to see them all.
🧒 Under 2? A lap infant flies free on US domestic flights. Internationally it's roughly 10% of the adult fare plus taxes — a real cost no booking site puts in front of you before checkout. Kids 2 and up need their own seat and ticket on every airline here.
Southwest · via Dallas Love (DAL)CHEAPEST
$712
Out Thu 10:20 AM → 5:31 PM · Home Mon 12:05 PM → 7:28 PM · 1 stop each way · lands in Harlingen (HRL), 35 min from McAllen
⚠️ The catch: you land in Harlingen (HRL), 35 min from McAllen — and Southwest boards by position, not seat: check in exactly 24 hours ahead or you're in the last group, picking from what's left.
$356 per person = $302 fare + $54 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Two free checked bags each and no change fees — cancel for full flight credit.
United · via Houston (IAH)
$778
Out Thu 12:35 PM → 8:47 PM · Home Mon 9:20 AM → 3:44 PM · 1 stop each way
⚠️ The catch: Basic Economy — your seat is assigned at the gate, you board last, and if plans change there is no refund, only credit minus a fee.
$389 per person = $334 fare + $55 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Basic Economy: no changes, no refunds, seat assigned at the gate. Strictest rules on the board — know before you pick it.
Frontier · via Denver (DEN)
$782
Out Thu 5:45 AM → 1:12 PM · Home Mon 6:30 AM → 12:47 PM · 1 stop each way
⚠️ The catch: a 5:45 AM departure — that's roughly a 3:30 AM alarm — and the bare fare covers almost nothing. Bags and a seat are already counted in this price; everything else costs extra.
$391 per person = $289 fare + $9 taxes & fees + $93 bags & seat · × 2 travelers — priced WITH a carry-on and a picked seat, the way you'd actually fly it
✋ No free changes; cancel for credit minus a fee. The bare fare was $596 for two ($289 fare + $9 taxes per person, before bags and seats) — we show what it really costs to fly it.
American · via Dallas (DFW)OUR PICK
$824
Out Thu 6:05 AM → 1:47 PM · Home Mon 2:30 PM → 8:52 PM · 1 stop each way
⚠️ The catch: a 6:05 AM departure on day one and an 8:52 PM landing on the way home — an early alarm starts the trip and a late drive ends it.
$412 per person = $356 fare + $56 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Free cancellation for 24 hours. After that, full value as flight credit.
Delta · via Salt Lake City (SLC)
$876
Out Thu 4:50 PM → 11:58 PM · Home Mon 4:05 PM → 10:18 PM · 1 stop each way · gets in late — first night is short
⚠️ The catch: you land at 11:58 PM — the first hotel night below is mostly gone, and you're paying full price for it.
$438 per person = $379 fare + $59 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Free changes, no change fee. Cancel for eCredit up to departure.
Southwest · evening departure
$748
Out Thu 3:40 PM → 10:58 PM · Home Mon 8:15 AM → 2:36 PM · 1 stop each way (Dallas Love) · lands in Harlingen (HRL), 35 min from McAllen
⚠️ The catch: the same Harlingen landing as the morning flight, at 10:58 PM — most of the first night is gone — and boarding is still by check-in position, not by seat.
$374 per person = $320 fare + $54 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Two free checked bags each and no change fees — cancel for full flight credit.
American · via Dallas (DFW) — afternoon
$844
Out Thu 11:15 AM → 6:20 PM · Home Mon 7:05 AM → 1:58 PM · 1 stop each way · second daily departure
⚠️ The catch: the gentle start costs you the first afternoon — wheels down at 6:20 PM — and the trip home leaves at 7:05 AM, so the last morning is an alarm clock too.
$422 per person = $365 fare + $57 taxes & fees · × 2 travelers
✋ Free cancellation for 24 hours. After that, full value as flight credit.

🤝 Our parity promise: the total you see is the total the partner charges. If a partner's price has moved, we show you the new number before you click — never after. We checked the big sites with the same trip: one's headline left $227 to be charged at the hotel; another's price jumped 13.6% on click-through. Ours doesn't move.
How we make money: when you book through TallyTrip, the travel partner pays us a commission. It never changes your total — you pay the partner's all-in price, the one on this page, and we tell you this before you book, not in the fine print after.

💵 One total, from the start

Other sites show a low number first, then add taxes and fees at checkout. Here, every price on this page is already the whole price — including anything you'll owe at the hotel or the rental counter.

✋ Terms before you pay

Every option states its cancellation deal in plain English, right on the option — not buried three clicks past the pay button.

🎛️ Your preferences, your trip

Morning flights only? Suites, not motels? SUV or nothing? Set your preferences per leg and the board only shows what fits — the total follows along.
