  1. Yes, I just relooked and the amenities I missed out on listing in original post are: Tennis nearby, Spa services.

     

    The $536 is the room rate per night before taxes and fees. i.e. the number you see on the screen after entering your parameters.

     

    For greater clarity, the $536 rate was for 2 adults and 1 child; the rate for 2 adults only was $428.

     

    Yes it's super expensive, but it is the peak season and with Irma's damage to many resorts in other parts of the Caribbean, I have a feeling that there is going to be increased demand on peak travel resorts in unscathed areas, like Mexico. 

  2. Amenities: Free breakfast, Free Internet, Business Center, Children's Activities, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Self-service laundry, Smoke-free rooms

     

    Won this today. Research done showed Hyatt Ziva was the only 4.5 star all-inclusive property on Hotwire in the area that was not adults-only; so was fairly confident that it was the Hyatt. Very happy with the win since I have been tracking prices on both Hyatt's and third-party websites for the last while and I am saving around $800 for the stay after factoring in taxes etc.

  3. This was my second attempt; my first attempt three days ago (initial and free rebids) of $36, $37 and $38 yielded nothing.

    Since I was running out of time, I decided I would start my initial bid higher than I usually do for a 3* for YYZ Airport.

    My first bid of US$38 was accepted. It's funny how the inventory changes over a mere three day period.

    I have been getting the Renaissance at US$36 upteenth times for the last two months. A little sad to have to 'move' to the Doubletree as the Renaissance is a really nice hotel at the 3* level.

  4. I had won this hotel at $36 almost 2 weeks ago on a different stay.

    Decided to see if this hotel can be won at lower bids.

    Started the bid at $35, bid rejected.

    Added Toronto downtown as a 'free' rebid at $36, the bid was accepted. Taxes and fees are $10.38, to a total of $46.38.

    Just wanted to add a note that Toronto downtown is not technically a free rebid zone for 3* (Scarborough is a free rebid for the 3* level) because there are 3* hotels in that zone. However, the lowest winning bids historically are much higher than the $36 that can be had around the airport area. So for free rebidding purposes, for me, Toronto downtown is a free rebid zone for this level.
