A.N. Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hey there, Just booked the Castle Kamaole Sands in Kihei on Hotwire. (using forum links) It matched the already ID'd list for the 3*. Thanks, it was what I wanted. On a side note, I tried bidding on PL for a 2.5* (Castle Kamaole Sands) 1st $75 Kihei rejected but asked to rebid $95 (I didn't but rebid picking a new area) 2nd $82 +Wailea - Makena rejected 3rd $86 +Kahului rejectedI then went to HW for the 3* Kihei Condo $89 Anthony Link to comment

ph67 Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 I'm not sure that I'm supposed say this on this board, but...Back in March, we stayed at the Castle Kamaole Sands for 10 nights. I priced it on Hotwire (was fairly sure that it was Sands) and then I contacted the hotel through the Castle website. The rate they quoted me was EXACTLY THE SAME as the Hotwire rate. So, if you are thinking about this resort, I would first contact the hotel because if you book directly, you don't have to pre-pay and can leave if you don't like the resort.Also, the resort fee was a one-time (per stay) $15 fee. It was not daily like most resorts.Maybe this should be in the hotel reviews section? Link to comment

By the way, it was a great condo for the price I paid ($119 per night). Link to comment
