Priceline Hotel: Hotel in Wailea Maui experience getting 3.5* hotel

[smg]

I want to book either the Marriott or Makena Surf/beach hotel in the Wailea Maui area. The Marriott is resort while the Makena is 3.5*. I just do not want to get the Hotel Wailea (3.5*) because it is not on or near the beach. I see people have gotten the Makena at $135 the same week I want to go. Does anyone have any experience guessing the chances of the Hotel Wailea coming up? Does the Hotel Wailea come up much? I am guessing I can get the Makena at $135 but want to get an educated guess of the chances of getting the Hotel Wailea. I tried to get the Marriott/Wailea at $140 but was unsuccessful.

I haven't seen the Hotel Wailea come up in a very long time, I think the chances are extremely high that you would get the Makena Beach Resort when bidding for a 3.5 in that zone.

IMO it's also a possibility you will get the Marriott when bidding 3.5.
