Hotwire Hotel: 3.5* San Juan (Isla Verde - Carolina - SJU) Courtyard by Marriott Isla Verde

[MPSimecek]

I'm searching Hotwire for a hotel for ONE night, April 5th.  Four two adults and two kids.  Looking at this 3.5 star with 95% recommend.  Any thoughts what that would be??

I was waiting because up until yesterday, I was still looking for those nights in case something opened.  I explained in more detail on the follow up to that post.  In the end, we didn't use Hotwire for the two nights prior to the cruise because we got a deal we couldn't pass up on Hotels..com but we will definitely be using Hot.wire for the tail end of the cruise, just for that one night.

 

Sorry about that.

Ahaa.  Good to know. Just bookmarked that. I didn't realize that site existed.

 

Do you have any thoughts on the hotel available for April 5th then ...??

or, for $274 there is this 4 star on isla, with the following ammentities:

 

FULL AMENITIES: Resort, Beachfront hotel, Casino, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Tennis nearby, Spa services, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower

 

Then, there's this 4 star in Condado for $130

FULL AMENITIES: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Casino, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Golf nearby, Spa services, Accessible for visually impaired, Accessible for hearing impaired, Accessible path of travel, In-room accessibility, Wheelchair accessible, Accessible bathroom, Accessible parking, Roll-in shower

 

 

Trying to decide if it's worth the added $$ to be on Isla.  We will be 2 days before cruise in Condado so that's why I was thinking of doing Isla.  Just curious on recommendations or thoughts to what these properties are.

Best guess/comments for each:

3.5 star for $230 in Isla

Courtyard by Marriott Isla Verde Beach Resort

4 star on isla

--> InterContinental

4 star in Condado for $130

--> Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel and Casino

So...we booked hte 3.5 star as described here. HOWEVER, we waited until 5 days prior when we were on the ship.  We ended up getting this 3.5 star for $106.  It ended up to be the COURTYARD by MARRIOTT. 

 

It was FANTASTIC!!  We actually stayed at the 5 star Vanderbilt on the front end of the cruise and were highly disappointed with that hotel.  The Couryard was slightly less fancy but WAY more comfortable and appealing in all aspects.  For $106,  it was quite a bargain for our familiy of 4.  I'd go back there in a heartbeat and stay right there!!
