Aarony Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Posted October 29, 2008 ok, i fixed the other post. Can you please help me with this bid?Thanks
thereuare Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 While the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort is the only known Resort class property in this zone, you can't bidding on a specific hotel... there could be other resort properties in this zone and you could the first to report a new property to the board (or report a previously reported lower rated property now upgraded to the resort class)Are you willing to accept any Resort property in the Ft Lauderdale Beach zone? If so, what is your maximum bid for this stay?Let us know us the above and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Aarony Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Posted October 30, 2008 i am willing to take the risk that there will be another resort. i can pay up to $200.
thereuare Posted October 30, 2008 Report Posted October 30, 2008 Before suggesting a strategy up to $200, would the Pelican Grand Beach Resort work for your needs? It appears to be available on HOTWIRE for $125/nite and the reviews are very good.You could try bidding on PRICELINE, but if the above is good for your needs, dont' know if you would want to bid more than $125, or if this isn't your ideal property for this stay, is a different Resort in the Ft Lauderdale Beach zone worth almost twice as much to you?Let us know and we'll advise accordingly.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Aarony Posted October 30, 2008 Author Report Posted October 30, 2008 Pelican Grand would be ok but i would rather try for Marriot i understand that i may get a different resort for more money.
