PartyGirl Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Hi!I'm planning a trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica for the end of the month preferably 5/31-6/4 (but any 4 nights btw 5/22 and 6/5 will do).I used the HOTWIRE link to search for the ideal dates and came up with 2 all inclusives. 3-star $150 Amenities: Resort Complimentary Breakfast Beachfront Property Food and Beverages Included A la Carte Dining Options Evening Entertainment Included Daily Activities Included Children's Activity Program Fitness Center Pool(s)Restaurant(s) Tennis Nearby All-Inclusive 3.5 Star $149Resort Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Beachfront Property Food and Beverages Included A la Carte Dining Options Water Sports/Ocean Activities Included Evening Entertainment Included Rates include evening entertainment, such as theme nights, shows and music.Daily Activities Included Children's Activity Program Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities (self-service) High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby All-Inclusive any ideas? I'm thinking Holiday Inn SunSpree will be one, I just dont know which... And what could the other be?I'll be checking priceline (using the links of course) to see if any hotels are cheap enough that I'll use what I save on food and drinks.Thanks Link to comment
PartyGirl Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 PRICELINE has all the star-ratings with All-Inclusive. Maybe I can get a better deal here. Do you have any idea what can be expected of the 3+ star? resort? Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Neither of the HOTWIRE hotels above have yet been reported to the board. My guess for the 3.5* is the Sunset Beach Resort and Spa... i don't have a guess for the 3*.Some possibilities thru PRICELINE at each star level:ResortGrand Palladium Lady HamiltonHilton Rose Hall3 StarHoliday Inn SunspreeRiu Montego BayLet us know how you'd like to proceed and/or what you decide to do for this stay and we'll try to help accordingly.Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

PartyGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Any strategy for bidding on PRICELINE? Of course I'd like to stay under $150 otherwise I can take my chances on HOTWIRE. Thanks for your help. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 What star level did you want to try on PRICELINE... 'Resort' or 3.5 star?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Roadguy Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 The 3 star could be the Royal Decameron also, but it would be awesome if it were the Holiday Inn or Riu. IMO- All three are better than the Sunset Beach. Like Thereuare, I too think the 3.5 star is Sunset Link to comment
PartyGirl Posted May 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 I'd prefer to try Resort on Priceline. Thanks!Thanks! I think I'll be satisfied no matter what I get based on the reviews and bc I've never been so my expectations aren't high anyway! Link to comment
