Hotwire Hotel: HELP: 4* WDW Orlando 3/11-3/13

[Juno]

Question on the same topic. I was looking at Hotwire for this weekend ( 3/11 and 3/12) and saw a 4 star resort listing in Lake Buena Vista for $90

Amenities include: Restaurant(s), Pool(s), Fitness Center, Spa Services, Golf Nearby, Tennis Nearby, Business Center. It is noted that it is a customer favorite. Here are some reviews:

Ticket sales to Disney World were available in the hotel and a bus was provided to take us to park.

The spa was great! Most importantly, the location was perfect.

Perfect location, lovely pool and I only wish I had a chance to use the spa!

Is this the Swan? How can I be certain that it is not the Wyndham? Are there any telltale signs? $90 would be an amazing deal :)

Thanks!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

I believe this is the Wyndham.

[Juno]

Wow...the listings look the same to me. Can you please tell me how you know the difference when the Swan comes up vs the Wyndham? I am buying annual passes to WDW, so this is sure to come up often.

Thanks again.

The Swan often contains a laundry icon, relative price, customer comments... we've been doing this awhile :)

[Juno]

Gotcha. Imagine a laundry icon being the give away. I will keep my eyes open. Definitely want to take a shot at it in late April or early May :)

Check these dates to get the swan:

4/29-5/7

[Juno]

Cool! Thank You :)

Any luck?

[Juno]

I think I see it on 5/6/05. The reviews talk about feather beds and down pillows, right? It's $145.

[thereuare]

I'm a bit confused (not the first time :) )... are you considering these alternate dates?

[Juno]

Definitely want to take a shot at it in late April or early May :)

I also have seasonal passes, so I am open to going again when the crowds lighten up and the rates fall. I think staying at some of the resort properties (namely the Dolphin or Swan) would be great if the opportunity presents itself.

For this weekend, I booked through easy click at the Marriot Courtyard (I did not want the Wyndham). Thanks :)

[TaurusSES_Sport]

So did you get the Swan or not?

[Juno]

Actually Taurus, at this point since I have already booked Marriott Village, I just need to know what it looks like so I can grab it next time. I am still suffering a little bit of sticker shock from my annual pass purchase :)

I am not much of a planner when it comes to vacations and often book things last minute. I think May would be a great time to return to WDW based on the low crowd volume. I am hoping last minute availability is an option during the low season. I would also like to see the price drop a little.
