shopperlady Posted May 18, 2005 Report Posted May 18, 2005 I would like to bid on a hotel in cocoa beach through priceline. Would I be likely to get one on the beach? Any help would be appreciated.
thereuare Posted May 18, 2005 Report Posted May 18, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!Unless you are bidding the Resort level (not offered in this area) your hotel can be anywhere within the shaded boundary of Priceline's map.If Beachfront or Beach Access is important to you HOTWIRE may be a better option, as well i seem to recall EasyClickTravel having some good deals in this area as well.If you let us know your budget and the date(s) of your stay we can try to help further.Let us know your thoughts on the above 'beach' aspect and the other information and we'll take it from there.

shopperlady Posted May 20, 2005 Author Report Posted May 20, 2005 thank-you for the info. I have never used easy click travel. They have 2 on the beach 3 star that say available. Is this a good bet to go ahead and book? The prices are good. thank-you.
thereuare Posted May 20, 2005 Report Posted May 20, 2005 Use our EasyClickTravel Reverse Look-Up tool to see our opinions on the id of each hotel.From the page that describes the property take the URL and paste it into the provided box.Any questions/problems let us know... and let us know what you end up with or decide to do.

shopperlady Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Posted May 23, 2005 I can't seem to find a URL number? I look and look but can't seem to find any numbers? thanks
thereuare Posted May 23, 2005 Report Posted May 23, 2005 Once you do an EasyClickTravel search, click the "more info" link to get a description of the hotel. On that subsequent page, copy the URL from the top or your browser (the "http://....") and past that into the reverse look-up previously mentioned above.

TravelGuy Posted May 23, 2005 Report Posted May 23, 2005 I would like to bid on a hotel in cocoa beach through priceline. Would I be likely to get one on the beach? If you bid for a 3* on Priceline, yes you are overwhelmingly likely to get a hotel on the beach. There has never been a Priceline 3* hotel in Cocoa Beach reported that is not directly on the ocean.
shopperlady Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Posted May 24, 2005 wow! thanks, I think I will try that. Any suggestions on bidding price? Date is June22-23.
thereuare Posted May 24, 2005 Report Posted May 24, 2005 At the 3* level you have one re-bid zone available, if you're not familiar with re-bidding please read PRICELINE 72 HOURS and feel free to ask questions.Select 3* Cocoa Beach...Bid $47, if rejected add re-bid zone....Bid $55.Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
