rachael_9667 Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 6/10-6/14/12Lake Buena Vista, FL for the search90% of people recommend4 star propertyLake Buena Vista- Downtown Disney area condo $134 listed as $94Amenities:Resort Free Parking Free Internet 2 Bedroom Suite Fully-equipped Kitchen Washer and Dryer in Room Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) 24-hour Front Desk High-Speed Internet Access Spa Services Condo I thought it was the Sheraton Vistana Resort (which I want to extend our exchange stay) BUT Hotwire says that this property charges a resort fee and I called the Sheraton Vistana Resort and the Vistana Villages and neither charge a resort fee?? Then, I was thinking Lake Buena Vista Resort Village and Spa since I see the Spa word mentioned in the amenities, but I don't see a resort fee listed on their website either. I'm so confused.

rachael_9667 Posted April 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I swear I won't post again (tonight) but 2 things. #1, do you think THIS could be the Vistana? It's driving me crazy and #2, did y'all ever notice the reference number on each property listing that only appears when you highlight the listing (like when you are copying & pasting)?Super savings†$118 other sites*$69 per room per nightOnly07rooms left!Recommended in 80 % of Hotwire customer reviews Amenities: Resort, Free Parking, 1 Bedroom Suite, Fully-equipped Kitchen, Air-Conditioning (this is a perk??), Children's Activity Program (why I think this is Vistana), Fitness Center, Pool(s), Business Center, Front Desk, 24 hr Front Desk, Laundry Facilities (self-service), High-Speed Internet Access, Tennis nearby, Condo Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Best guess for each:4* CONDO Lake Buena Vista, FL Lake Buena Vista Resort Village and Spa2nd property at $69/nite... is this 3* rated??Blue Tree ResortPlease use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

rachael_9667 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yup, you're right - the $69/night one was only 3 stars. So probably none of these are Vistana huh? :( I'll keep you updated - maybe we could just switch rooms but I'd hate to do that. However, I'd hate to pay retail even more. lol :lol: Thanks!

thereuare Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 Is the Sheraton Vistana the only property you're interested in?

rachael_9667 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 We did a timeshare exchange for a week at the Vistana and since we are actually staying 11 days, I needed an "extension" of sorts. There are 6 people in my traveling party (3 adults, 3 kids) and th week we already have booked is the 3-10 of June. Looking for the 10-14th. Thanks theruare! (and I always start my searching through the links here.) ;) Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 You probably know already but including this for anyone else following along, but HOTWIRE only shows one hotel at each star level per zone, so there is a chance the hotel you're hoping for isn't the one which is offered for your particular dates.Keep us updated on your progress and let us know if we can be of further help along the way.Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

rachael_9667 Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Yup, I read that before but glad you mentioned it for those who may read this later and didn't. What's weird-ish is that Hotwire lists this hotel as in the Sea Word area and it's really not. Maybe it's so they can include lots of different star choices, IDK.I *think* this one might be the Vistana? but def. not the great rates we've seen in the past from them if it is:Ref No. 6049642643$127 per room per nightSeaWorld - I-drive South area condoRecommended in 85 % of Hotwire customersAmenities: ResortFree Parking1 Bedroom SuiteSmoke FreeAir Conditioning Washer and Dryer in RoomChildren's Activity CenterFitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center24-hour Front Desk Laundry High-Speed Internet Access Golf NearbyTennis NearbyKitchenette Condo Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 The above does match previous reports for the Sheraton Vistana Villages and 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.
