With all this talk about costs please share how much your pesach program cost, per person, per room etc?

3k-5k a person is typical. Some are less, many are more

I appreciate a good sarcastic hug as much as the next person but why would I get even a sarcastic hug for this?
Does someone feel bad for me that I know how to answer OP question?
Fascinating

You can be creative.
We paid 500 for an Airbnb place the first days, and a nice motel chol hamoed and last days for 400
Then the lavish kiddush in hotel, breakfast/brunch chol hamoed and meals the last days came to about 1000 for the 2 of us
If we stayed home it would be about 600-800 for food and another 500 to clean and pesachize the house and we'd be miserable
This way we had the most wonderful pesach of our lives

The only time I went to a Pesach hotel it was all or nothing - the program did not offer partial-week stays. Some families split the week among various relatives, so each could stay a few days for a lower cost. It was in the neighborhood of $2000 per person fifteen years ago.

So you didn't stay at the pesach hotel but you walked over for all the meals? Interesting I didn't know you could do that.

The prices per person are based on double occupancy (at least 2 paying adults per room). Youg children are usually more than half the price if they are sharing the same room. Once another room is necessary the double occupancy price applies again for next room.

I believe the program I just went to was 10k per room for the entire pesach. We went as guests and had 4 people in our room.

Also check the fine print, many of the quoted prices don't include tax, gratuities, and other service/resort fees, which can add another 15-25% to the total bill.

I called up the Pesach hotels and they said that you can't do this. May I ask which hotel you were able to do this arrangement with?

We paid 5000 per person plus 20 percent tips. And we are extremely happy with the program we go to. Have been going there for years.

The best deal I found was the Jerusalem Ramada. 2 adults and one child on a cot. $6,000 plus tips. The service was beyond excellent. Mostly Xian Arab staff, and some Ukranian. The food was AMAZING. Non stop minyanim, shiurim, kids events, separate swimming hours, taxi service to everywhere. Happy hour with tons of free snacks at the bar, and nosh for the kids so they wouldn't be crabby before dinner.
The kitchen it totally Mehadrin, and they let DH go back and ask a million questions, look at labels, and generally be a pest. Nobody made him feel weird for doing it.
The rooms are modern and immaculate, no weird smells or stains on the carpet.
I would go back without a second thought!
One bit of advice though, the dining rooms were packed and noisy. Pay extra to book a private dining room if you have a big family, easily bored kids, or need to bring in bulky strollers. I wish we had. I was jealous of how peaceful and relaxed everyone seemed in the smaller rooms. The main room was a balagan!
The grounds are big and spacious, so there's lots of ways you can get out and take long walks if you need to stretch your legs, and want a quiet place to do it. It's also great to let your kids run some energy off.

Arizona hotel was $9,500 a room and it didn't matter how mAny people was in the room. So if you have four kids and you took out two rooms you paid $19 k and if you squashed into one room you only paid 9,500 for your pesach.

How do people have that kind of money? Sounds exorbitant to me
