Please start by following-up your previous Orlando Priceline hotel thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip.  Please remember to follow-up your threads with your wins/decisions as you make them (even if you don't ultimately use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book direct, etc) as this help keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone... as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your travel plans.

 

For your upcoming trip do you specifically need something on-site or is your goal something that offers 'extra magic hours', transportation to the parks, etc?  What is your maximum budget for this stay (per nite before fees/taxes)?

Looking to stay on site, we're semi-local so we already have a preferred off property spot.  Budget is $150 or less.

The property above is not an on-site Disney property... would the Swan be of interest within your stated budget?

I think the Swan will be a little more than I'd like to spend once I factor in the resort fee.

[thereuare]

Then i don't see any other on-site properties that are within your budget.

Ok, I’m coming back with different days and budget. 

 

Im looking at checking in the 29th and out the 30th. There’s a 4.5 Star bonnet creek for $128 with the following:

 

business center

restaurant

free internet

indoor outdoor pool

fitness center

non smoking

 

$31.50 resort fee

 

Could that be the swan or dolphin? 

 

 

 

 

[memo10]

And then there’s also a 3.5 Star for $116 a night that says it’s 50% off... which seems like a decent rack rate. 

 

Ammenities are:

Restaurant

free internet

indoor outdoor pool

I'm seeing on PRICELINE EXPRESS for 6/29-30 (please confirm the correct date of travel is showing on the detail page after clicking the links below.)

 

4.5* Walt Disney World - Bonnet Creek for $128
Fitness Center
Business Center
Restaurant
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
Free Internet
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
>>>Best guess would be the Swan

 

3.5* Walt Disney World - Bonnet Creek for $116
Restaurant
Free Internet
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
>>>No guess, but with an 8+ customer rating the property does get good reviews. For $12 more, the potential Swan would seem to me like a better option.

 

Let us know what you decide or if we can be of any further assistance.

I think you’re right, the swan would be a better value!

[thereuare]

So did you take that one?

I'm jumping to another boat again (AKA I'm over thinking).

 

I'm over on hotwire now for 6/28-6/30

 

3* bonnet creek area with the following:

Free Internet, Resort, Airport shuttle, Pool(s), Restaurant(s), Self-service laundry, Golf nearby, Children's activities

 

So I was thinking one of the All Star's.  But the price is $140, down from $351 but that seems awfully high. 

[AaronJB]

Are your dates confirmed? What are you looking for in terms of hotel, as the Swan would be a more deluxe experience than 3* properties (and is also currently priced for less per nite).

Also, with HOTWIRE the % discount isn't the underlying hotel, it's an average at that star rating for those dates. Additionally, in terms of trying to look for the biggest discount, a hotel may be 50% off but it may also not be the hotel experience you're looking for.

 

I'm seeing for 9/28-30:

 

3* HOTWIRE Walt Disney World - Bonnet Creek for $139.00
Free Internet
Resort
Shuttle
Pool
Restaurant
Laundry
Hi-Speed Internet
Golf
Childrens Activities
==>  Best guess would be the Pop Century Resort.

 

Please keep us updated on what you decide.

We decided to postpone until the fall, thanks for all your help and insight!

Thank you for closing this thread with your decision.

 

Please try to have your plans firm and ready to purchase/move forward when asking the board for help.
