Hotwire Hotel: Help identifying 3.5* hotel in Nassau/Paradise Island Bahamas

[AndreaT]

$300 for 2 adults, 2 children for Apr 3-8

3.5 rating on trip advisor

Originally $391

Resort fees are 20.95/person/day

Beachfront property, casino, restaurants, children's activities, pools, Internet access, business center, tennis nearby

My sister called Hotwire and they stated that the last hotel bought for this deal was the British Colonial Hilton. Seems like the resort fee mentioned matches more to Atlantis Beach Tower. Any thoughts?

Also states it has spa services and is a resort

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Please start by reading your messages (which will also remove the red box at the top of the page asking that you do the same)

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links.

If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above?

Are you traveling with your sister for this trip OR are you assisting here in making the plans? Who will be making the actual purchase?

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.

I am traveling with this reservation...

 

As far as using the bidding helper website, the amenities are similar.  the only thing now in the hotwire deal is that it is not showing children's activities anymore, and bidding helper does.

To start, if somebody other than yourself will be making the reservation please ask that they come to the board and use the search boxes at the top of the page (or the logos within each are clickable) to start the purchase.

The "Last person got ___" information shown by HOTWIRE is in reference to the last purchase that was made in the zone at this star rating, NOT necessarily the specific hotel offered".

Both hotels likely have the same amenity set, but in the 'regular' HOTWIRE tab you need to take a few extra steps to ensure that you're seeing them all. For future searches/bookings you can do the following to ensure you're seeing the complete list:

1) use the EASY VIEW tab of our BiddingHelper.com and click the green 'See All Amenities' button

OR

2) search HOTWIRE (or use the HOTWIRE tab at BiddingHelper.com) and...

• click the offer
• on the next page click the BOOK NOW link
• in the TRIP SUMMARY box click the 'See more' link at the end of the amenities

This is the amenity set i'm currently seeing for the 3.5* property in both scenarios:

Resort

Beachfront

Casino

Pool

Restaurant

Business

Hi-Speed Internet

Tennis

Spa

Childrens Activities

... best guess for this one would be the Atlantis Beach Tower.

thanks for your help--I will book through here if we decide to try the offer.

 

thanks also for the info that the amenities show differently for the property in the two different places on the regular hotwire page.  tricky...:)
