bobcook54 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Posted January 10, 2015 I have been watching a 4* All inclusive on Hotwire for June 2nd-June 9th. It shows 30% recommended,but 4* on Tripadvisor. One of these has to be wrong....I tend to trust Trip advisor more than just 10 reviews from Hotwire reviews. Here are the amenities:■Free parking■Free breakfast■Resort■Suite■Beachfront hotel■Casino■Children's activities■Fitness center■Pool(s)■Restaurant(s)■Self-service laundry■Internet access■Tennis nearby■Spa services■Accessible path of travel■Accessible bathroom Has anyone either booked this or know what resort it might be? $84.00 per night is a deal. Just want to make sure....Hotwire rates are for the room and the amount of persons that you enter....not each person,correct?
AaronJB Posted January 10, 2015 Report Posted January 10, 2015 This listing has not yet been ID'd/reported to the board, but a guess would be the Sirenis with a slightly different amenity set than has been previously seen. Please keep us updated on what you decide and please let us know if you have questions on other listings. Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
bobcook54 Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Posted January 11, 2015 "Just want to make sure....Hotwire rates are for the room and the amount of persons that you enter....not each person,correct?" Is this true? I've used Hotwire and Priceline many times before,but this is the first time out of the country.

gsarchenko Posted January 13, 2015 Report Posted January 13, 2015 Hi, I'm just curious if you followed up on this hotwire hotel. I'm still quite curious about it and wondered if you found out? I just have a hunch it's not the sirenis hotel (unless the slashed rate is incorrectly listed). Thanks for the update!
bobcook54 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Posted January 13, 2015 Aaron-When I look at Priceline Express for these dates ,choose a resort, they all seem to come up with a note: "All rooms are guaranteed for up to 2 adults" We will have three in our party,so I probably should use Hotwire,correct? On Hotwire, when I change it from 2 to 3 persons, the price goes up,so I know it's adding for the 3rd person.
bobcook54 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Posted January 13, 2015 gsarchenko- Still working on it. I'll post it when I pull the trigger. I have my flights arranged,so booking the hotel is next!
thereuare Posted January 14, 2015 Report Posted January 14, 2015 ...unless the slashed rate is incorrectly listed...Note that the crossed out price is an average rate of hotels of that star rating in the zone for your dates... not necessarily the room rate for the specific hotel offered. We will have three in our party,so I probably should use Hotwire,correct?Yes, HOTWIRE would be a safer option since they guarantee accommodations for everyone you include in your search... where all Price.line bookings are only guaranteed for double occupancy.

bobcook54 Posted January 15, 2015 Author Report Posted January 15, 2015 Well,I pulled the trigger and it is (drum role): Hotwire, Sirenis Resort Punta Cana Casino & Spa - All Inclusive. I did a lot of research on this and thought it was either Bavaro Princess All Suites Resort Spa & Casino or Punta Cana Princess All Suites Resort & Spa.Where I made my mistake was looking on Hotwire's tab... location....distance from the airport. The Bavaro and Princess both showed 11.7 miles from the airport while on a different website, I saw the Sirenis was 23 miles from the airport.The 11.7 miles is how far the AREA is from the airport,not the resort itself. I chose Hot.wire because there will be 3 of us and Price.line only does 2. Total was $1035.00 for the week for 3 of us....not real happy getting this resort given the latest reviews,buy,hey,it's done and I'm sure we'll have a great time As always, used the HOTWIRE links provided here to start and purchase our vacation and encourage everyone to do the same....also,PLEASE post your results...it helps all of us!
thereuare Posted January 16, 2015 Report Posted January 16, 2015 Congratulations on your success! While not the hotel you were expecting (although it was guessed as a possibility at the beginning of the thread), glad to see you're pleased with the price and are looking forward to having a good time on your all-inclusive trip! Thank you for using the HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchase and sharing your win, helping us update the Hotwire Hotel List with the new amenity set for this property. Enjoy your stay.
