Thank you for your help. I'm ok spending up to $150/night, and I see both of these hotels advertised for just about $15-$20 higher than the hotwire price. I think we may just book directly as the Westin is $152/night. Thank you very much for your help and quick responses.

I just ran the search from the Bidding Helper and I see 4 options now including a 4.5*. I am entering 3 rooms, 2 adults each. When I also enter 2 children per room, Options 1 and 4 disappear. We do have 2 children/room. I was hoping to get a Westin or the Omni. Thanks for your help!

I used the links on this site to check Hotwire for 12/23-12/27, 3 rooms Palm Springs. I am open to location but would like help in identifying which hotels these may be (3 different available).

Thank you both for your help. We decided to just book directly at La Jolla Estancia and avoid the unknown. Will try next time. Thanks again for this great resource!

We have decided to pass on HOTWIRE - the group is concerned that the La Jolla property might be Best Western. I'm now trying to convince them to bid on Priceline Coronado 4*. The opaque rates are too expensive, but the latest bids are under 200. We have a complication though - 3 families are staying from 7/3-7/6. 1 family is leaving a day early 7/3-7/5. Looks like I can book 3 together and there is no guarantee for the 4th family - could be hit or miss. What do you advise - should I try or is there a strategy that could get us all at the same place?

Hi - just checked and I'm able to get search results now. The same two hotels are displayed at the same prices as last night.

Thanks - I clicked on the HOTWIRE link and will use the links for my purchase!
