thereuare Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread. Once you win a hotel use the 'ADD REPLY and REPORT WIN' button on the lower right corner of this page to provide the details of your purchase and the entire thread will automatically be moved to the correct section of the board (if necessary). I'm not currently seeing this PRICELINE EXPRESS property when searching for your dates... are you still seeing this on your own search? Also, it appears that your dates have changed since your original request and this currently property is nearly $100 more than the previous two (not to mention staying in the Beach zone will be a very different experience than staying in the Airport zone)... are your plans for this stay firm? What is your maximum budget per nite for this trip? Are you comfortable with an opaque purchase?

debsjc Posted December 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Apologies, as this one was Priceline, I thought I needed to post it in the Priceline section. Sorry I made an error in the date, it's from 23 Feb to 27 Feb, and it is still there in the Priceline Express Search. I am comfortable with an opaque purchase, I have previous booked the Westin Diplomat on Hollywood Beach as an umnamed hotel with Hotwire (a few years back, before I knew about this forum)We were initially hoping to keep the rate to less than $150, and so there was no option but to take a non-beach location. However we have now decided we will pay more to get the beach location. I see some people have been getting 4 star beach hotels in Hollywood and Fort Lauderdale areas, for less than $120, for early Feb.... which would be perfect, but at the moment I can't find anything for those prices. Either location would be fine for us, but we would really prefer the beach areas.Thanks for your help. Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Difficult to have too much confidence in any guess with only two (common) amenities showing... my best guesses would be the Sonesta or the Marriott Harbor Beach, but i can't exclude the Westin or W Fort Lauderdale (or some other property) from the possibilities, although the first two would be my top guesses.

debsjc Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Could you give me your opinion on this one please, I think it may be the Renaissance? Hotwire - Feb 23 to Feb 27 - 4 adults4 Star - Las Olas / Downtown/ Port everglades Area - $142 Pet friendlySmoke-free roomsFitness CentrePoolRestaurantBusiness CentreInternet access Thanks Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above? Using this method, below is the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 4 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates: Pet Friendly Smoke Free Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Hi-Speed Internet Travel Accessible Room Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ... if this is what you're seeing, the Renaissance would be my best guess as well.

debsjc Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 I'm still shopping around, and hoping for prices to drop ... 23-27 Feb - 4adults I've come across a couple of Hotwire properties today, which I don't think are on the lists. Airport 4 star $251 (maybe Seminole Hard Rock, but i'm totally guessing?) Free parking, Resort, Pet friendly, Casino, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access, Spa services Hollywood 3 star - $189 Free parking, Free Internet, Airport shuttle, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 I'm still shopping around, and hoping for prices to drop ...The offers above are more expensive than the original properties that you inquired about above... are these in your current budget that you would be willing to act up on them now? As it can take quite a bit of time to research properties, please only ask for assistance with hotels that are within your budget and that you're ready to act upon at the current time, as these offers may not ever drop in price or if prices do drop these may not be the ones offered at that time.

debsjc Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 My budget could be up to $280 a night, but I would rather not spend that amount! If that is the Hard Rock, then the parking is free.... where as a lot of other properties have a $30 parking fee, so it's not as expensive as it first seems. As well from helping me ID them, I thought it might be useful to you to see properties not on the list. Link to comment
thereuare Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 We only add hotels to the Hotels Lists when they are confirmed and reported to the board as a 'win' as this helps keep them reliable and not subjective based upon what we 'think' hotels might be.

debsjc Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Ok, no problem, just trying to help! I have been using your links,. Link to comment
debsjc Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 We decided this was the best value, taking everything into account. We will have a car, so can get to the beach in about 5 mins, and still visit other areas too. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Congrats on your success. :) Very nice win for this property and glad you are looking forward to your stay. Just to confirm, was this a Hot.wire reservation? Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches. Enjoy your stay.

debsjc Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Yes, it was Hot.wire. I did notice it's not on there now though, it disappeared just after I booked. Link to comment
