Hotwire Hotel: Help Identifying Nassau all inclusive hotels

[chen]

I bid $60 for resort and then added 4* and bid $80 for Aruba 03/08/07-03/12/07. Both rejected.

Hotel direct rates at the Hyatt and the Marriott for your dates are over $500/nite... the other Resort properties in the area are less, but still nearly $300/nite, so i think your Resort bids are going to be tough.

Yeah. I'm switching to Paradise Island, Bahamas... where I found a much cheaper direct flight. Not sure if I'm going to use priceline because the only hotel seems to be the hotel seems to be the hilton in Nassau. I really want the Atlantis but it's nearly $500 a night. Can you suggest any other websites for deals?

Thanks.

I don't know of anything for that area, but i think there is a Comfort Suites which is nearby the Atlantis yet enables you to use all the facilities at the Atlantis. It's a fraction of the cost, but you get all the perks of using the Atlantis facilites... i'd check into that first.

The 3* is a match for the Paradise Island Harbour Resort while the 4* is match for the Rui so those would be our best guesses for each.

Please remember to use this HOTWIRE link to begin any purchases you make.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

CHEN,Could u let us know if and what hotel you got in the bahamas ..im looking to for the same but for 2/18-2/22 and i got the same price hotels so im wandering what you got.Thanks

Currrently, I'm not using either hotwire or pl.

I've split my 4 night stay as follows:

03/08-03/10 Riu - all inclusive. Booked via their website (2 adults) for a total of $876.

03/10-03/12 Comfort Suites (as explained by Thereuare, this hotel gives you full access to the Atlantis facilities.) Total - $564.48

I realize I could get a cheaper deal on the Riu through hotwire, but I want to be able to cancel if a good deal pops up in the meantime. If anyone has cheaper suggestions, please let me know~!

BY THE WAY - FOR ALL OF YOU GOING TO THE BAHAMAS, CASH IN ON A FREE PASSPORT IF YOU'RE STAYING AT CERTAIN HOTELS. CHECK OUT THIS LINK:
