doubg Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 Priceline is showing a 4-Star Express Deal Hotel (South Ka'anapali - Lahaina Area) for my travel dates 9/12-9/18. After clicking, the amenities shown is the following: Pets Allowed Business Center Free Internet Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities In the hotel list for this area, it shows either the Hyatt Regency or the Westin. It appears Westin offers airport shuttle. Based on information above, do you think this is for the Hyatt Regency? Any other information I can use to identify the hotel? Thanks! I will definitely follow up with the results and click thru your site. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 21, 2017 Report Share Posted July 21, 2017 I'm seeing on PRICELINE EXPRESS (please confirm the correct dates of travel are showing on the detail page after clicking the link below.) 4* South Ka'anapali - Lahaina for $214 Pets Allowed Restaurant Airport Shuttle Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities >>>My guess would be the Westin, as well. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

doubg Posted July 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Interesting. It was showing something different last night. However, I think this probably confirms that 4* in this region with Airport Shuttle is Westin and without Shuttle is Hyatt. I'll keep monitoring in the next couple of weeks and will replay back with my final bookings. Thanks! Link to comment

thereuare Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 There is also always a chance that the same hotel sometimes shows with a Shuttle and sometimes without... we have seen the same hotel use different amenity set(s) at times.

doubg Posted July 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Thanks for the additional information. As I did the Priceline search, I also came upon a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal for Central Ka'anapali - Lahaina ($205/night 9/12-9/18). However looking at the hotel list, I would very much prefer the Westin property in that area over the other choice of Sheraton. It doesn't look like there is any real differences in amenities. I even checked the Priceline (non Express Deal search) details on both properties and amenity lists appear to be the same. Is there any other way of identifying the Express Deal offered to me? Admin (thereuare), if amenities are sometimes listed differently, what other strategies can I use? Thank you very much in advance. Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Please start by following-up your previous Las Vegas Hotwire hotel thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip. Please remember to follow-up your threads with your wins/decisions as you make them (even if you don't ultimately use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book direct, etc) as this help keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone... as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your travel plans. When asking for PRICELINE EXPRESS (or HOTWIRE) help please include the full details of the listing so we know that we're looking at the same property you're inquiring about. I assume this is the one you're referencing above (confirm your dates on the landing page of any links provided below): 4* Central Ka'anapali - Lahaina for $205 Restaurant Free Internet Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center No Smoking Rooms/Facilities ==> best guess for this one would be the Sheraton Maui Resort and Spa I'm also seeing what appears to be the Hyatt Regency for $219/nite... let us know if this one would be of any interest at this price. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
doubg Posted July 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Ok, updated the thread from 2012 with the winning bid information. Had to dig through old emails to get the exact winning bid. Sorry about that. The PRICELINE EXPRESS Deals for 4* Central Ka'anapali - Lahaina from 9/12-9/18 is $177/night. If it's the Sheraton, I'll probably pass on this as online reviews seem a bit down on this property. The PRICELINE EXPRESS Deals for 4* South Ka'anapali - Lahaina from 9/12-9/18 is $214/night. I think this is the Westin since amenities listed include airport shuttle (Hyatt does not have this amenity). I may book this, especially with your 5% off express deal promo code. Where are you seeing $219/night for Hyatt Regency? This would be the most ideal property. Thanks! Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 On HOTWIRE (using the EASY VIEW tab of our BiddingHelper.com tool and then clicking the GREEN 'Full Amenities' button next to the listing): 4* HOTWIRE Ka'anapali for $219.00 Resort Pet Friendly Beachfront Fitness Pool Restaurant Business Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Golf Tennis Spa Childrens Activities Blind Accessible Deaf Accessible Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower ==> the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa would be my best guess for this one Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

doubg Posted July 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Booked through Priceline Express Deal using the site's PRICELINE EXPRESS link. Ended up reading that Sheraton was not such a bad property after all. Seems like many actually prefers it over the Westin. Got 6 nights at Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa (9/12-9/18) at $177/night, plus used the 5% off promo on your site. They charge $26/night resort fee. Total is right around $1360. Thank you for all the information and direction. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Congrats on your success. Definitely a great win for this Sheraton property and glad you are happy with the result.
