Crystal clear. What a wonderfully thought out and comprehensive reply! Really explored every angle and answered my questions thoroughly 😃
I agree with your advice and I think will go with just the 4 adults into 2 rooms route.
I am hoping to get The Royal Hawaiian. Very central and seems kid friendly. It seems the rates have dropped, can you please confirm this is till The Royal Hawaiian:
5* - 235$
Resort, Beachfront, Restaurant, Pool, Fitness, Smoke Free, Free Internet, Hi-Speed Internet, Golf, Spa, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower
For 9 nights, 2 bedrooms this comes to $6050 using Hotwire.
On the Royal Hawaiian Website, there is a promotion for 20% off on stays of 5 nights or more. So the room rate is $308. The total comes to be $7159.
I think if i book 2 rooms at once its using 292$ for both rooms.
Rather if i book 1 room with 2 adults, and separately book 1 room with 2 adults + 2 kids, I am seeing a savings of 400$.
I do intend to ask them to try and give me rooms that are together.
1) Any risks with this strategy?
2) What If i dont put the kids on the booking at all? I am seeing that the cheapest room they have already is a double room and we wont be using additional bedding. Can there be issues at checkin time for a big hotel like these?
Thank you for your reply. I think I might have missed adding the kids the first time around. I've now added 1 baby (< 1 years) and 1 '2 year old'. I am getting closer to your numbers.
For the 5* (Royal Hawaiian?), its giving me $292 close enough to the $290 you posted.
For the 4.5* (Moana Surfrider?), I'm getting 377$ now, lower than yours, but thats out of my budget anyway.
Thank you!
