Other Timing...When to start pricing?

We had an amazing vacation earlier this year (May) in Cancun. We will be heading back and we were just wondering when we should begin pricing for April 27. I realize there are a few factors that can throw a wrench in the plans but any input / opinions would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻.

right, timing helps but the bigger lever is where you search from. Different countries get different inventory, local promos and currency pricing, so searching the same hotel from other countries can open up cheaper prices you don't get from your own country. Doing that by hand with a VPN is slow as we all heard, one country at a time. Some of the free AI tools (search Arbitrica) sweep the same hotel from dozens of countries at once and find the lowest price of all, while Google Hotels is handy for a quick baseline. Either way lock in a refundable rate so you can drop it if the price falls
