Priceline Hotel: 4* Orlando (Lake Buena Vista - Downtown Disney) Caribe Royale Orlando

[Easy]

Dates are October 1st through 5th. Amenities are:

Free Parking

Free Internet

Resort

Fitness Center

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Business center

Laundry Facilities

High Speed internet.

Based on the information in this forum my feeling would be Radisson Celebration or Westgate Town Center, but it doesn't fit the mold entirely for either. It's showing a $12.50 resort fee.

Always use the links to PRICELINE and HOTWIRE on this GREAT site!

The Radisson Celebration has previously been seen with this amenity set so that would be my best guess for this one. What aspect of the description do you feel is not consistent with this property?

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

[Easy]

For whatever reason, probably user error, I didn't see all the amenities when I posted. When I went back I got them all and it is consistent. Thanks for your help! I'll be certain to use your HOTWIRE link and post back with any results.

HOTWIRE has a new interface which is not currently showing the complete set of amenities at the usual point of the search process.

This workaround has been successful in order to see the complete set of amenities:

• use this link to search HOTWIRE
  
• from the search results page click the offer for this hotel
  
• on the next page click BOOK NOW (no worries about purchasing by accident since no credit card information is entered up to this point)
  
• on the left side of the page click the 'See all amenities' link

This should show you the full list of amenities associated with each offer.

Do you have a forum where PRICELINE EXPRESS Deals amenities are ID'd? Is it fair to assume that only priceline hotels which are participating with the 'name your own price' system are participating with express deals?

No, we have seen hotels reported to the board thru PRICELINE EXPRESS which have not yet been reported to the board as a "Name Your Own Price" win.

Dates are October 1-5. Amenities include FREE PARKING, pool, fitness center, restaurant, airport shuttle, business center, Bed Choice available. Shows a 9.0 on guest rating and a "guest favorite". I'm stumped but am thinking possibly Swan/Dolphin or Caribe Royale? what else in that zone has free parking?

There is also a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal in the same zone also 4* with only three amenities shown. Fitness center,Restaurant, pool. It's shown as a 7.0 guest score. I'm afraid to book this one because I think it might the the Buena Vista Palce.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

[Easy]

Those were both located in the Downtown Disney/ Lake Buena Vista zone.

What is the price of the 3* as this is what i'm seeing in this zone when searching for your dates:

3* $47

Indoor or Outdoor Pool, Restaurant, Free Parking, Business Center

[Easy]

I'm not quite sure what you mean? I just ran my dates again on the Priceline Express Deal Feature. I then selected the Downtown Disney/ Buena Vista zone and selected the 4 and 4 1/2 star options. I'm still showing a $96 4* property with Pool, Free Parking, restaurant, airport shuttle, business center, fitness center and bed choice. It shows as a guest rating 9.0 and a guest favorite.

For purposes of this post I also selected the 3* option and am also showing the same 3* property as you; $47.

I have a screenshot, but can't figure out how to attach it here.

[thereuare]

No need for a screenshot... i see the 4* property now.

I gave this one a hard look and although i was able to filter down the results to what i thought would be the hotel, i then dug a little deeper and found a reason why each one in my subset couldn't be the property listed.

Unfortunately i don't have a guess for this one.

Let us know whatever you decide to do for this stay or if we can be of further help.

[Easy]

When you click to book it, the choice is given to add a two bedroom villa? Does that change your analysis at all? any reason why you don't think it's the Caribe Royale. I'm very tempted to book it today.

Thanks for all your help. I'll make sure to book on the priceline or HOTWIRE links on this page whatever I decide.

[thereuare]

The Caribel Royale would look to be a good guess.

I feel 'pretty good' about this guess now, but since this an extended stay you could see if this same property is offered for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the solo nite in order to 'look behind the curtain'. If you're happy with the results purchase the remaining nites, if not, make alternate plans for the balance of your stay.

Remember to use the PRICELINE coupon code SUMMER for an extra 5% OFF.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

I went to book it Friday at noon and the deal had been removed. It was up for about 24 hours. Still looking and will post my winning bid/selection. I'll certainly be using the HOTWIRE and PRICELINE links on this page.

[thereuare]

Let us know if this re-appears or if we can be of assistance with any other offers of interest.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

Good luck!

[Easy]

This reappeared. It ended up being the Caribe Royale. I booked using the PRICELINE link on this page. Thanks for the help.

[thereuare]
