tani420 Posted April 15, 2008 Report Posted April 15, 2008 Not really sure how this works, but it seems like it could be helpful. I have great success with hotwire in the past and i've gotten burned as well, so having extra help in attempting to identify properties would be cool.I see a rate of $139/night to punta cana august 9 - 15. it's for an all inclusive. Looks like other people write down the amenities, so here they are:It's a 4 star hotel with a ton of icons. ResortResorts offer a complete destination experience. Facilities generally include a spa or fitness center, one or more swimming pools, and superior dining options. Depending on location, recreational activities may include water sports, golf, tennis or skiing. Coastal resorts usually boast ocean views or beachfront access. Note: A resort fee may be charged. SuiteA guestroom designed for an extended stay and/or that more spacious than the average hotel room.

One time i matched that price with a hotel only to be told by a hotwire staff member that they list the price of comparable 4 stars, not necessarily the one you are staying at. that was a couple of years ago.I appreciate any help to be found. thanks!
