carbo Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 After searching around and realizing that hotels in Honolulu are quite pricey, we felt Priceline would be our best option for a short 3 day visit. Only wanted Waikiki Beach so we used the 3 free re-bid zones to price search.Day 1: Bid $105, rejected with counter at $130, until reaching $120 using $5 increments. All rejected.Day 2: Bid $115, rejected with counter at $145, until reaching $125 using $5 increments. ACCEPTED at $125 per night.We got Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa located on Waikiki Beach near Kuhio Beach Park. Ranked #22 by TripAdvisor and 85% TripAdvisor Traveler Rating. Although they are going renovations until September, this is a great location and deal for a 4-star accommodation. Rack rate on this same room would be $261.15/night or $783.45 USD total via Hyatt's website. My priceline total was $440.64 USD which is a 43% savings!! This considering that some 3-star hotels were in the $150+/per night range via travel booking websites.And as always, I used Betterbidding.com's PRICELINE link to start my purchase.Regards,Carbo Link to comment
