slick_gd Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 I am seeing a different hotel offered on HOTWIRE. Are you searching for something other than 1 room 2 adults?You also list 2 sets of dates: Dec 27 - 29 and Dec 26 - 28, which one is correct? Link to comment
lejo2008 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Details - 12/26-12/28 - 2 Adults 1 Child Link to comment
slick_gd Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks for the update, although now I think you may be missing some amenities. The icons are limited to 8 but there can often times be more. To see the full list click 'continue' from the main search page and then directly underneath the icons click 'see all amenities'.Also, is there a tripadvisor traveler review rating associated with this hotel?

slick_gd Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 You had a good first guess. This one looks to be the Hyatt Pier 66.If you plan on reserving, help support this site by using this HOTWIRE link to start your purchase and let the board know the result. Link to comment
lejo2008 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thank You ....Question : How far is the real walking distance from Hyatt Pier to the beach ? Link to comment
slick_gd Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 I've never been there so I couldn't tell you definitively, but looking at google.maps it shows about a 10-15 min walk to the beach. Someone else who knows the area better may be able to give you a better idea. Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 I've never stayed here either, but i don't think it's walkable due to the route to the beach, but the hotel does currently run a complimentary shuttle to the beach (runs on the hour... i think return from the beach 10 minutes after the hour), the water taxi goes to the beach and stops on property (i think $13/day for unlimited rides), or a taxi i'm told is $8-$10.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

slick_gd Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Is this a continuation of your Hotwire - Ft. Lauderdale thread or is this for the same stay?The 3* looks to match the Sixty Sixty Resort Residences, and the 2.5* looks like it could match the Whitelaw Hotel. Those would be my guesses.If you plan on reserving, help support this site by using this HOTWIRE link to start your purchase and let the board know the result. Link to comment
lejo2008 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Thanks ..- Same Stay ... The Original Hyatt Pier66 (Ft Lauderdale) would not have met my needs ..to far from the beach. Link to comment
slick_gd Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 So what are the actual dates of your stay? The other thread was Dec 26-28 and this one is Dec 28-30. Are you looking at any two nights in that range? Link to comment
lejo2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Are you looking at any two nights in that range?Yes Link to comment
thereuare Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Please keep all posts for this stay in this thread.The above 3* is a match for the Sixty Sixty Resort and Hotel and the 2.5* is a match for the Howard Johnson Dezerland Beach Resort so that would be our best guess for each.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.
