Nothing like a little surprise to spice your holiday up – Agoda has a “Secret Deals” tab which lets you book an accommodation of your choice at ridiculously low rates. Information on the accessibility, rating and reviews of the accommodation will be made known to you. But here’s the catch: you’ll have to wait till you’ve completed the rest of your booking to see where you’ll actually be staying.
Rest assured Agoda will only provide you with quality accommodation!

As they say, the early bird catches the worm. Book your accommodation at least a month in advance and enjoy special early booking savings. If you’re lucky, you might even chance upon a flash deal that gives you up to 40% off! O.M.G.
Psst. There’s a secret link for all DBS/POSB cardmembers that’ll get you seasonal discounts. This ranges from an additional percentage off hotel bookings, to cashbacks – on top of all the discounts Agoda already provides. Book through http://www.agoda.com.sg/dbssg, use your DBS/POSB card to pay and voila! More savings for you.
This time round, they’re running a sweet 12% cashback.
It pays to be loyal. Once you’ve completed your Agoda trip, you’ll receive a cashback into your account which you can use for your next booking. Plus, the more bookings you make with Agoda, the higher the cashback you get!
Travelling in a foreign country can be intimidating, especially so if everything is Greek to you – literally. If the place you are staying isn’t exactly near a landmark and you’re having trouble communicating with the locals, you’d want to whip out your Agoda app.
Simply select “taxi helper”, and the app will have the directions to your accommodation translated into the local language. Show it to your driver and you’ll be soon on your way without a hiccup.
Your vacation will be an absolute breeze with these hacks, saving you hassle and some bucks – from the planning process all the way till when you actually arrive at your destination. Good things must share, so, pass these hacks on to your fellow wanderlusting friends!
Here’s an extra goodie for you DBS/POSB Cardmembers – book a stay from now till 31 August 2018, for any time between now till 31 December 2018, and receive a gift card worth 12% of your total booking value to be used for your next getaway! Simply log into your Agoda account and book via this exclusive link. The gift card will be credited to your Agoda account 7 days after checking out of the hotel.
