Alright I pulled the trigger. Thanks @thereuare. You were right. I also used the PRICELINE link provided here and saved $80 with your Priceline Coupon. PRICELINE EXPRESS buy - 5* $160 Central Waikiki. Feb 4-14 2018 Result- Alohilani Oh and the pool should be done in December and well before Feb according to staff. Thanks again for the help and time you put into your research!

I considered bidding if I can stay at or under $200/ night 5*. If the PRICELINE EXPRESS deal hotel is Alohilani I'm willing to risk no pool at the $160 price. But as I wrote, PRICELINE's website states that the Alohilani has an infinity pool. Does that change things? What other hotel can it be? Thanks again

Thank for the help thus far thereuare and Aaron JB

I don't want to be across that stream/ waterway in the marina. I've stayed at the Ala Mona and it's a smidgen to far for me. Here is what I found at the Alohilani Waikiki Beach The infinity pool, dining options, free Wi-Fi and oceanside location attract guests to the non-smoking Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach.

Feb 4 to 14, 2018 Thanks

Priceline Option #1 Amenities Bed Choice Business Center Non Smoking King Bed - Smoking Or Nonsmoking Room With Partial Ocean View 7+ guest rating 300 reviews $314.10 hotel fee for 10 night stay -Unfortunately I dont think this comes with a pool (or isnt guaranteed) since it is filtered out when I choose pool option under amenities. Priceline Option #2 Bidding on a 5* In "Heart of Waikiki" or "Waikiki beach" district Amenities Indoor or outdoor pool Fitness center restaurant 8+ guest rating Offer Price Per Room, Per Night:US$ 160.00 (attempted $160 BID and failed) Subtotal:US$ 1600.00 Taxes and Service Fees:US$ 261.60 Total Room Charges*:US$ 1,861.60Apply Coupon Hotel Fee:US$ 377.00 (for 10 nights) Total Cost*:US$ 2,238.60 Having a pool is a key amenity. I think option 2 is better but what bidding price is realistic and what hotel can I expect on each option? Im new to this site and hope that I did a good job explaining. I researched other posts to get an idea on format and information needed. Thank you in advance for the help.
