This is a VERY large gap between Motel 6 and multiple pools. You seem to be defining normal as high-end but not ultra-high end.

not as big as you think. there are hotels that are made for programs, multiple ball rooms, lobbys etc.
and then ive been to programs that had a total of 4 couches in the lobby. yes 4.
or another program that only had 2 bathrooms in the lobby so they brought trailer porta potties.

You would be surprised what programs do to cut pricing. honestly i would cut the overpriced entertainment. skip an hour of avraham fried and have a normal tea room.

It’s 6k not to live it up but for directors and fundraisers to forge relationships with donors. I get the optics part but to insist that they skip to show solidarity with parents is penny wise and dollar foolish. Anyone effective is going to bring in multiples the amount spent for their mossad.

my point was the optics... and yes, I get your point.

I like to think https://www.pesachtime.com/ qualifies. Definitely nicer than motel 6.
yes in price but would like somewhere warm
Consider it a tradeoff: In exchange for your preferred weather, you get to spend Pesach with Moko, your on site mashgiach!! 8)

just spoke to organizer of pesach hotels who used to do 4 hotels back in the day
told me he'll be happy if he fills one, even his loyalist are now going to exotic locations with chef, maybe the DD effect
though he says industry is moving towards shabbos chanukah getaways in tri state area which fills up pretty quick

Apples and oranges. Shabbos Chanukah is nowhere near the profit of Pesach.
