yellowdog Posted March 21, 2009 Report Posted March 21, 2009 Please follow-up your Hotwire Naples thread and then bump this thread.YellowDog.
whoawhoawhoa Posted March 21, 2009 Author Report Posted March 21, 2009 I had already stated in that thread that I was going to book directly with Expedia. I'll go say it again.
thereuare Posted March 22, 2009 Report Posted March 22, 2009 I think your reply to the other thread was the first mention that you booked thru Expedia... can you also add to that thread the name of the hotel you did book, it might help somebody else who is looking to stay in that area and having trouble getting their bids accepted for their own stays.The Rosen Shingle Creek is a Smoke Free property, so the addition of this icon to the listing for this property would make sense... but it would be a "leap of faith" to assume that the Golf Icon has been removed. With the amenities above, these would be very common for a 4* hotel in this area.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.

whoawhoawhoa Posted March 22, 2009 Author Report Posted March 22, 2009 Any idea as to what else it could be, if not the Rosen Shingle Creek?
thereuare Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 I'd imainge just about every 4* hotel in this zone has the amenities above... so it could be just about anything.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

whoawhoawhoa Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Posted March 23, 2009 It appears that another user got the Rosen Shingle Creek a few weeks after my date, with the golf icon.

npaden Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 Based on the list it looks like that is pretty much a slam dunk for Vista Cay.I'll add the disclaimer that there are no guarantees with HOTWIRE though.

thereuare Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 This is a match for the Sheraton Vistana Villages so that would be my best guess.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

npaden Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Vista Cay is the only 4* condo on the list for Seaworld I-Drive South. The amenities listed above aren't a perfect match but it still seems to be pretty close. I got some similar amenities listed when I was searching and it seems like the only 4* condo in Seaworld I-Drive South is Vista Cay and several have reported a few different amenities.Sheraton Vistana Villages is listed as being in Lake Buena Vista - Downtown Disney. How could it be that? I thought that the zones would be set in stone. Are there places that can be listed in more than one zone? Should it be noted that they can be in both zones instead of only listed in one of them? :) :)
yellowdog Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 npaden.It's the 4* Sheraton Vistana Resort that is listed in the Lake Buena Vista - Downtown Disney zone. The Sheraton Vistana Villages can't be anything then the I Drive South/Sea world zone. The names on the Sheraton Vistana places are easy to mix up. YellowDog.
whoawhoawhoa Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Posted March 24, 2009 I think that npaden wasn't referring to any of the Sheraton Vistana properties - instead, he was referring to the Vista Cay Resort (no affiliation with Sheraton). The Vista Cay Resort is in the I Drive South/Sea World Zone. Do you still think that the condo I listed was a Sheraton and not the Vista Cay Resort?
thereuare Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 The amenities above don't match those previously reported for the Vista Cay, and they do match those of the Sheraton Vistana Villages, so my best guess is still the Sheraton Vistana Villages.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Thanks for your help and I will use your links next time I book with a 3rd party.
npaden Posted March 25, 2009 Report Posted March 25, 2009 Sorry to keep bringing this up but I'm still confused.Here's the Hotwire Hotel List. There are only 3 4* properties listed and the only one with a Condo amenity is the Vista Cay. I don't see the Sheraton Vistana Villages as an option for this area.

armywife85 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Posted March 26, 2009 Just fyi, Vista Cay does not have 1 bedroom units. Only 2 or 3. So it's not Vista Cay.

thereuare Posted March 27, 2009 Report Posted March 27, 2009 You can take the amenities HOTWIRE associates with the property and then search the full thread for any matches... i only told you to do CTRL+F because you apparently weren't searching the entire thread and this ensured that you'd see the posts beyond the first one.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.
