fabianhdz Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hello fellow betterbidders! I would like to identify the following properties in Priceline express: Dates: 12 - 17 May, 2014 4 Star Hotel in Ka'anapali - Lahaina Area for $181/night Guaranteed Amenities: Outdoor Swimming Pool Restaurant Business Center Fitness Center Rated 9.0out of 10 (or higher) Because of the rating I'm thinking is the Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas 3½ Star Hotel in Ka'anapali - Lahaina Area for $115/night Guaranteed Amenities: Free Internet in room Indoor or Outdoor Pool Condo Rated 8.0out of 10 (or higher) This one may be hard, as it's a condo... As always, using the PRICELINE link to do my searches and bookings! Thanks in advance Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 The amenities for the 4* property are very common for a hotel of this star rating and while the Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas would be one possibility, i don't see how you can rule out the Ka'anapali Alii, Polynesian Shores, or The Kapalua Villas either. For the Condo, my guess would be the Outrigger Aina Nalu. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

fabianhdz Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 I'm going to try to identify some hotels from Hotwire instead before I make my decision, should I start a new thread in the hotwire forum or just ask about those options here? Thanks Fabian Link to comment

fabianhdz Posted April 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Thank you thereuare These are the hotwire hotels I'm interested and would like to identify them. I had a hardtime looking at the easy view of hotwire to obtain the amenities, because the prices are all different (I ensured I was in USD), and even when trying to book from there I always got an error message. Will appreciate any insights! Always using the HOTWIRE link from the forum for my searches and bookings Cheers!

thereuare Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 When using the EASY VIEW tab at BiddingHelper.com click the 'See all' amenities link(s) first before clicking anything in the HOTWIRE tab, as sometimes the Hotwire tab links will break the links in the EASY VIEW tab (and vice-versa)... when this happens simply click the SEARCH button in the form at the top of the page to refresh the listings. If the above still causes issues for you please do the following for each HOTWIRE offer to see the full list of amenities: -search HOTWIRE and click the offer -on the next page click the BOOK NOW button -in the TRIP SUMMARY box click the 'See more' link at the end of the list of amenities Please confirm the complete set of amenities and we'll have a look at these offers.

604girly Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 Ive been researching a lot for Maui and Waikiki for the past month for my vacation. Heres another option I noticed for your dates on Priceline.Express. 3½ Star Hotel in Ka'anapali - Lahaina Area for $115/night Amenities: Free Internet in room Indoor or Outdoor Pool Condo It looks like it is a better deal if you are interested with the 10% coupon code M3HVK8SD ->> expires 11:59pm ET on 4/11/2014. Priceline Total = $616 after coupon Additional charge by hotel = $78.12 during check out Total trip = 694.12 From my research, the common 3.5 star in this area won for name your own price or hotwire etc. are:Aston Kaanapali Shores - this one is consider a condo (for your dates $90 mandatory fee according to Priceline regular price)Outrigger Aina Nalu - this one is consider a condo (for your dates $78.12 mandatory fee according to Priceline regular price)The Royal Lahaina resort (looks like no additional fee)Aston At The Whaler On Kaanapali Beach (for your dates $52.10 mandatory fee according to Priceline regular price)I am not 100% sure but from this I think it is a good indicator that it might be Outrigger Aina Nalu because of the $78.12 mandatory fee Link to comment
fabianhdz Posted April 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 Thank you 604girly for your comprehensivos response! I will definitely give it a try topriceline express, I used to have a coupon but it expired so this really comes handy, thanks a ton!I haven't even decided which area is better which makes it harder to narrow my choices, will come back once I get a hotel :-)Cheers!

fabianhdz Posted April 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 OK, so i wasn't super excited with the hotels that I would potentially get from the hotwire options, so I decided to take a PRICELINE EXPRESS deal with the coupon that 604girly provided (Thanks a bunch, you save me 90 bucks!) for the 4* hotel in Makena. Based on the results from the forum it was pretty clear it was going to be Makena Beach & Golf Resort, so i decided to go for it. $174 USD -10% with the coupon + fees = 928 UDS, meaning around 185 per day after taxes and fees. I used the PRICELINE link from the forum for my booking Thanks everyone for your help! Fabian Link to comment
yellowdog Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 Thanks for using the PRICE.LINE links on the board. We hope you're satisfied with the outcome and will like the hotel.
