Should I book through Luxury Link?

I am planning a trip to Bali this February and am looking to stay at Puri Wulandari. I found it at a great rate on Expedia for $245 a night but I keep going back to a site called Luxury Link. Luxury Link if offering the same villa for $310 a night but they are offering a lot of extras like a dinner one night of my stay and hour-long massage. Even though Luxury Link is offering a higher price they seem to be the better deal, am I right? Here's the package: http://www.luxurylink.com/5star/hote...puri-wulandari

I guess I am asking if anyone has used Luxury Link before? How was your experience with the hotel? And are the extras actually worth it?

Any insights about this would be really helpful. I don't want to get suckered in to paying more because it seemed too good to be true. Thanks!

I'm curious if the post quoted below that I happened to see on another site is the same poster. Marrakech AND Bali? Or a commercial for LL?

"Does anyone have experience with using Luxury Link?
I am looking to travel to Marrakech and want to stay at the L Mansion. I've been doing lots of research, trying to find the best deal since I've heard this is an exceptional hotel but is often very pricy. Through my search I came across Luxury Link. For my travel dates a standard suite comes to $290 per night; Expedia came out to $463+ per night. In addition, the Luxury Link package lists a ton of extras like a dinner on one night of my stay and airport transfers. It pretty much sounds too good to be true and I definitely don't want to be scammed. Here’s the offer: http://www.luxurylink.com/5star/hote...occo/l-mansion

If anyone has used Luxury Link I would love to hear your thoughts or any advice you have to offer.

I'd appreciate any insights!"

Seems like advertising from a brand new poster to me.

suze - I don't think the OP is advertising. It is probably a legit question (just from looking at the other things he has posted)

If you buy from these guys, you either have money to burn or don't know the BASICS of purchasing travel online. I have been monitoring and examining their website and "deals" for half a year now. There isn't a single instance where I couldn't BEAT their pricing. EVER! It only took a few clicks to other sites such as getaroom.com or tripadviser.com to check their pricing and rating. What Luxury Link says is a "5 star luxury" property doesn't gel with the Trip Adviser rating and reviews on MANY occasions. Their site is nothing special and you would be paying more than you should if you purchase your travel there!
