haley Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Thanks so much for the great site. I'm learning so much from reading past posts!I'm looking for help bidding on four nights in Ft Lauderdale , 11/23-11/27. My top choice would be a 4* in Ft. Lauderdale Beach or Downtown for $80. I can't imagine that would be possible, but you never know.I'd also take a 3* in either zone, if the 4* is not possible, for $60-$80. The only problem is that I'm a bit wary of some of the 3* beach hotels, based on reviews, although they're probably fine.Hotwire says that there is a 3* in Ft Lauderdale Beach for $76 and nothing in Ft. Lauderdale downtown.Does anyone have suggestions on how to proceed? Link to comment
haley Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'd like to amend my help request...! We're actually not interested in Downtown area -- just Ft. Lauderdale Beach. Link to comment
runNgun Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 my search hotwire shows this 3* for $69 per nightSuiteNear BeachFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterHigh-speed Internet Accesskitchenettemy guess is the Doubletree Suites Galleria which is great for that price. This is a "Condotel" which is a combined timeshare/hotel concept. When I stayed in April, I had a brand new large one bedroom suite with a full kitchen. You can walk to the beach over the Intercoastal Bridge but I hope your not carrying too much. Parking is extra. Link to comment
haley Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Thanks for the tip! The doubletree suites inn sounds great, but I'm having trouble finding that deal on hotwire. I'm searching for 2 rooms -- do you think that's why I can't find it? Also, do you think it would be better to book the rooms through hotwire or bid on priceline? Link to comment
runNgun Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I only did one room.what exactly are you searching for (adults, children, # of rooms) Link to comment
haley Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Awesome! I just booked 2 rooms at the Doubletree Suites Galleria for $69 per night. The total was $312.72 for four nights, per room. It's going to be a fun Thanksgiving in Ft. Lauderdale! Thanks for the tip, runNgun. Link to comment
