shannonleigh332 Posted June 13, 2012 Report Posted June 13, 2012 I was looking for suggestions for getting beachfront booking in Destin, FL. Searched the first 6-7 pages, but couldn't find information. I did a preview quote picked the highest star rating possible (3* I believe) and used $60. It accepted my offer and gave me information about the place, but I wasn't sure if there is a way to guarantee beachfront. I see that 2 out of the 4 3* hotels in Destin are actually in the shopping center thing across the street and it is scary having a 50/50 shot of not being on the beach. Yet I'm not seeing an option to choose that as an amenity. Help? Thanks!
AaronJB Posted June 13, 2012 Report Posted June 13, 2012 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)Did you actually bid and get an accepted offer? If so, that reservation is locked in and cannot be changed/refunded. Please provide the name of the hotel that accepted the offer.Otherwise,Please provide the date/s of travel and your desired budget/rating.There is no way to select a beachfront property when using PRICELINE; if you bid on a particular star rating and a particular zone, you have to be willing to accept any hotel in that zone at that star rating. With HOTWIRE, you can look for a listing with beachfront as an amenity.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
shannonleigh332 Posted June 13, 2012 Author Report Posted June 13, 2012 Oh okay, I will try HOTWIRE then. I did not book on PRICELINE.. no worries. I just did a mock/preview. I looked around this site to see which hotels you usually end up with for X price and the highest star rating. I knew there was a chance they rejected my offer since I didn't actually send it in, but that's okay. I'm willing up pay more than I offered. I simply wanted to see if there was an option for beachfront. I will check HOTWIRE now :)
