I scored a convertible for our trip in mid-October for $25 a day via priceline's name your own price. My friends got a regular compact car for something like $12 a day when they were there in March-they told us to upgrade to the convertible for the Road to Hana drive. Cars are cheap but gas is incredibly expensive from what I've heard.

Thanks so much. The Diamond is nice but I think I can do better...maybe I'm wrong. Thanks again for all your help and I will be certain to use your links for bidding and post here with my results.

Yes-there is a Spa there at the bottom. Sorry about that-not sure if I missed it the first time or if it's new to the listing. But yes-Spa Services are listed and it's a "Kitchenette" not kitchen. Also it appears the deal is no longer valid for the entire of my dates. Now it is only available from the 19th to the 24th. And I'm going to go ahead and presume that the 'fees' don't include resort fees-correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.

It does help and thank you so much for your response. I've heard great things about West Maui, Wailea, and even the upcountry and Hana and other parts of Maui. I'm pretty sure I'd be happy staying anywhere on the island since it sounds like everything is fairly accessible-from a mainland perspective. I've heard negative things about areas in far northwest maui but everything else I've heard has been very positive. We'll be doing stuff all around the island so I'm willing to consider multiple areas and properties. I'm looking for a resort because I'm hoping we can leave the car parked for a couple days as I've heard gas is extremely expensive. I'm not typically a resort type of person, but I'm traveling with mixed company including several people who don't mind wasting a day by the pool. Anyhoo, thanks again for your comments and they are very much appreciated. Mahalo and I look forward to seeing your beautiful island!

I would be for the right hotel/resort. I'm hoping to do it for less than that BUT if this $182 happens to be for a hotel/resort I'm looking for, I would absolutely do it. I would pay more if I could tell what hotel/resort it would be for. But I have another related question-since this property is a resort, would this price quote include resort fees? I can't tell from the Hotwire website and I did some research implying they have been sued in the past for not including them. Do you know anything about this? And what this hotel/resort might be?

I have been bidding on PRICELINE and having no luck but I think it's because my trip is still a few months off and I'm aiming for a pretty low price. I have friends who went to Maui last year in Feb. and got the Marriott Wailea for $160 a night so that's what I'm aiming for. Doesn't have to be the Marriott but I would like to stay at a resort for under $160. I could do a hotel but I'm much pickier about them so I'm not sure I'd use priceline or hotwire. Should I be posting this in the priceline section? Do you know what the other hotel is? The 3.5* in Wailea?

Booked a room at the Aqua Palms on Hotwire. It was listed as a 3* Hotel Waikiki North for $79 Dates: 10/16-19 Amenities are as follows: Boutique hotel Complimentary breakfast Laundry facilities Near beach Pool(s) High-speed Internet Access TripAdvisor rating is 4 out of 5; 200+ customer reviews

It was the Aqua Palm I just booked it for $79 from 10/16 to 10/19. Thanks Better Bidding!

Thanks for the insider info and I'll keep it in mind. My trip is still a ways off and in the off season, from what I've gathered, so I think I'm going to keep looking and try some priceline bidding. What is the area like around that hotel? I've heard that there's an area of Maui that's a little more commercial that the other hotel areas. Is this hotel in that area? Thanks again. Mahalo.

Just looked at another similar post for different dates and you said it was ResortQuest Maui Kaanapali Villas. Looks like that might be the same hotel for this one. Let me know if you think that's the case if you can. Thanks.

Need help with a Hotel ID: 3 Star Ka'anapali at $129 a night for October 19-October 25th. Beachfront, Restaurants, Pools with nearby golf and tennis.

I'm going to Oahu for a couple days in October and am interested in staying on the North Shore. Priceline doesn't let you include the North Shore when you bid. Anyone know why?
