sl808 Posted February 12, 2011 Report Posted February 12, 2011 I am looking for accommodation in Kanaapali, check in May 4th, check out May 9th. I would like a resort hotel (no condos), at least 4 stars, within walking distance to the village so I have more dining options beyond the hotel. There is something on Hotwire for $207- I can't tell if this is Sheraton, Westin or the Hyatt. Also on Priceline there is a resort I can bid on with no stars attached to it....anyone know what this could be please? Ideally, I would like the Hyatt or the Westin. Thanks in advance for your help!
yellowdog Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 Welcome to BetterBidding!You can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE. You have to be able to accept any hotel in the zone at the star rating (or higher) you select.If you're trying to target a specific property then HOTWIRE can often be a better option if you're successfully able to identify it based upon the star rating and amenities shown before your purchase... the trade-off is that HOTWIRE usually costs a little more than PRICELINE, so you need to decide what is most important to you for a given stay, the lowest possible price OR the ability to take an educated guess as to the property you may receive.If you need help with an ID so please list the amenties HOTWIRE associates with the hotel you're looking at and we'll have a look at this.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Yellowdog.
sl808 Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 Hotwire has a 4 star hotel in the Ka'anapali area for $207. Ameneties are: resort, beachfront, smoke free, fitness center, pool(s), restaurant(s), business center, laundry facilities (coin operated). Priceline... I am thinking of bidding on a resort in Ka'anapali but really don't want The Whaler Resort as it looks more like a condo than a resort (but Priceline has it listed as a resort). I see recently ppl have gotten Sheraton or Hyatt on Priceline- do you know if anyone got Whaler recently on Priceline?Thanks again for you help!
yellowdog Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 I belive that you don't have listed all amenities for the hotel. If you go back to HOTWIRE and click the CONTINUE button next to this offering and then click the "See all amenities" link under the icons, do you see more amenities than what you've listed above?Yellowdog.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
sl808 Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 Oh you are right... additional amenities on Hotwire include high speed internet access, golf nearby, tennis nearby, spa services, childrens' activity program
thereuare Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 This is a match for the Sheraton Maui so that would be my best guess for this one.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
