Updated those threads.
Just ended up booking Hilton Papagayo directly through Hilton.com for this trip, never did find out which resort this was.
I didn't end up winning a bid on this trip, they went a room at the Hyatt in Kaanapali.
This was indeed the Saguaro.

Have not booked yet. Whatever it is, it's a great deal for anytime during Spring Training.
Looks like the same property I have been looking at, best guess so far is the Sauguaro. It changed from 3 to 3.5 stars.
I haven't booked it yet but the property has gone up to 3.5 stars. Is this a new Hotwire trend?
I don't believe the Theodore exists anymore, I think its now the Joie de Vivre Saguaro?

No, usually you can get a lower price on PRICELINE.com. The prices on HOTWIRE and PRICELINE aren't related, but there may not even be rooms on Priceline at the moment & you wouldn't want to overbid. Persistence usually pays off, if you come back everyday and bid low to high you will eventually probably get a deal. Or the HOTWIRE price may drop.
Just follow the price for a few days, the 4.5 star in Poipu on HOTWIRE.com was showing $271, I'm betting it goes lower at some point.
The Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas has kitchens, not this Westin.
Put this trip on hold for the moment, will start a new topic if I bid there.
Is it possible this is the Courtyard by Marriott Goleta?
As you've learned PRICELINE can "upgrade" you to a higher level and you should always be prepared for that. If it's any consolation you got a really good price for the Sheraton.
I have had an issue with an Expedia last minute bookings. They hotels were completely full and were not interested in honoring the booking or finding me other accomodation, I found my own and eventually got about $500 in vouchers from Expedia. If your credit card is charged and you have a hotel confirmation already it's the hotel's responsibility. They need to "walk" you to similar accommodation if they are full.
My advice would be to target 3* in the Waikiki beach area first, going up your max. Several years ago I got the Princess Kaiulani here at $65 and was very happy. I would then target 3* in the Marina. You could do the reverse, I prefer the Waikiki Beach area. Aston Hotels are having sales starting at around $100 if you are unsuccessful. Also keep a look out for bonus cash emails.
I wouldn't jump on that HOTWIRE rate just yet, some of the hotels are having sales for close to that rate ($245), check out Travelzoo.com. My usual tactic is to have a refundable booking which can be cancelled if/when a PRICELINE bid goes through. One other point to note is that some have recently won the Westin Ocean Resort Villas bidding on 4*, I think this is a great property, comparable to the resorts on the other side of Black Rock in my opinion.
This hotel is available for your dates as a Starpick for $111, but you still saved.
I haven't seen the Hotel Wailea come up in a very long time, I think the chances are extremely high that you would get the Makena Beach Resort when bidding for a 3.5 in that zone.
IMO it's also a possibility you will get the Marriott when bidding 3.5.
The resort properties and the 4* Westin Villas on Priceline are nicer than those two so definitely bid that amount ($190) and even up to your $200 max. It's definitely high season then so anything in the $200 range for a resort is a deal.

Thanks, I probably will wait until something else pops up. Will be sure to update.
