CarolBarrel Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Posted December 29, 2010 OK...since the Playa del Carmen 2.5* hotel has gone from $43 to $49 per night, I'm thinking of staying at this one to the south...pay a bit more and have .5* less just to stay out of the party scene. Anybody have an idea of what this one is?Hotel: Puerto Aventuras - Tulum RegionStar rating: HotelStarRating: 2-starCheck-in date: CheckInDate:Sat, Jan 22Check-out date: CheckOutDate:Wed, Jan 26This hotel features the following amenities:Near BeachProperty is located within easy walking distance of a beach.Restaurant(s)Property offers at least one restaurant on the premises; hours and days of operation may vary.Golf NearbyProperty is located within walking distance or a short drive of at least one golf course; an extra charge typically applies.
CarolBarrel Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Posted December 29, 2010 Does anyone know which resort this will be? My guess is the Melia, and I don't want to risk it being that one (had a timeshare there & disliked location and "beach" so much I gave timeshare away for free). Also...if one is booking via Hotwire and going solo...can one book an all-inclusive resort...or is that going to require "double occupancy" AI payments? I wouldn't want any surprises at the check-in desk. TIA for any advice...here are the specifics on this $99/night AI on Cozumel which I searched for a Jan 22-26 (4 nite) stay:3-star hotel in CozumelThis hotel features the following amenities:ResortResortResorts offer a complete destination experience.

dahammer Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 please re-post just the amenities with no descriptions as it will be easier to read and render advice. Are your plans firm for these dates?

If I take a chance and book one of them I'll be sure to do it via this site's link & will report back as I've always done when I've booked from here. Happy New Year!
CarolBarrel Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Posted December 30, 2010 I just went to Priceline via your link and got a msg from them saying "want to see winning bid?"...now I don't know if they're trying to steer me to a higher price place or if I should even use that link they offered to me. I'm intrigued by all the people who got Westin for around $60 recently...I'd like to try to get that one if it's still possible. Here's what Priceline sent me...I hesitate to use their link 'cause I don't want to pay over $100 for Westin!Cancun, Mexico -- Recent Winning Hotel Bids*from real Name Your Own Price
CarolBarrel Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Posted December 30, 2010 I am confused whether it's best to try Priceline or best to go with Hotwire for Cancun. I've only used Hotwire in the past and that was for hotels in USA. (Of course I'm searching & will book via linking from this site.) But what to do? Here's a good price for a Cancun 4*, I think...$69/night. Will this end up being Westin...or...???eed help ID'ing 4* Cancun south for $69, Searched for two nites, Jan 24 & 254-star hotel in South Hotel ZoneThis hotel features the following amenities:ResortBeachfrontFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterHigh-speed Internet AccessGolf NearbyTennis NearbySpa Services
CarolBarrel Posted January 31, 2011 Author Report Posted January 31, 2011 Ended up staying with friends on Cozumel instead of PDC...too many small nondescript hotels in Playa and no way to know what HOTWIRE or PRICELINE might be brokering. :-(
