harikamboji Posted January 25, 2012 Report Posted January 25, 2012 We are spending a week on Kauai. Not having been there before I thought we should spend 3 nights on the south shore and 3 on the north. Been trying for about a week with little success to get a decent deal. I guess things have booked up for late Feb / early march.Tried first to get the Hyatt. Bid as high as $165, but the budget won't allow anything more (even that is over my budget, give resort fees etc). So I decided to try for the Sheraton. My $120 initial bid was rejected. A couple days later I bid $135 and got it. Now of course kicking myself for not going in smaller increments, but I wanted the process to be over.Of course I still have to get something for the north shore. Trying for the Westin condo but I'm hitting my upper limit there as well: My last bid of $140 was rejected. I think this was up for like $125 on hotwire several months ago... oh well. I kind of thought waiting longer would open up the best deals, but now I'm thinking I had it backwards- probably better to get in early!Anyhow, this website has been truly great, thanks!

clash Posted January 28, 2012 Report Posted January 28, 2012 Sheraton will add $25-$28 per night resort fee. Big ripoff.
