RolloT Posted August 15, 2008 Report Posted August 15, 2008 Looking to book 4* in either Costa Mesa-Irvine(looks like Hyatt), Laguna Hills-MV, or Dana Pt. The chances of the last two are probably remote, but my question is will I have an issue trying to book a holiday weekend(8/30-9/1) on Priceline?Also, looking to book 2 rooms.......................................
wheelanddeal Posted August 15, 2008 Report Posted August 15, 2008 Will I have an issue trying to book a holiday weekend(8/30-9/1)Depends on if there is hotel availability. My opinion, based on the area, is best chance is Irvine followed by Laguna, and least likely is Dana Point. Holiday weekends usually give you a better chance in business areas. Coastal areas during that weekend, probably not likely, but I've been way wrong on stuff like this before.

RolloT Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Posted August 15, 2008 About $100 is my max. The closer I am to San Juan Cap, the better for my situation. Unfortunately, due to the hotels available in that area, it looks like my needs and my means are inversely related. :)
thereuare Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 At the 4* level you have six re-bid zones.

RolloT Posted August 19, 2008 Author Report Posted August 19, 2008 Ended up with the Hilton Costa Mesa(not my first choice) at $75 a night.2 rooms, 3 days (8/29-9/1) $75/nightGood deal, but would have preferred the Hyatt.I started at $60 and increased $5 each re-bid.And I used your PRICELINE link....
