l1a7 Posted March 7, 2005 Report Posted March 7, 2005 I am looking to travel to Ft Lauderdale at the end of May... I was thinking 5/22-5/26 OR 5/25-5/29.It seems that prices are cheaper during the 5/25-5/29 dates.I'd love to bid on the Marriot Harbour Resort...but am unsure of what strategy to take. Are there many other resorts in this area that I would be likely to get?Any information would be helpful.Thanks!

l1a7 Posted October 6, 2005 Author Report Posted October 6, 2005 I followed the bidding strategy and was rejected.I tried again the following week and was also rejected. I decided to just book through the Yankee Clipper, and had a great time.Thanks!
