Priceline Hotel: Resort Hawaii (Waikoloa-Kohala Coast) Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel

[funtimegal]

I have tried over two days now with different priced bids.

Yesterday tired several bids in the $75-85 range in Kohala coast/Kona

Today I tried; 1/24/09-1/27/09

bid 1: Kohala coast, resort $88

bid 2:Kohala coast, resort + 4* $90

all rejected

Not sure why my bids keep getting rejected when other people seem to get the Hapuna Prince for $77+

Keep in mind that rates are date-specific and what one user may get for one set of dates may not work for a set of dates even a week later. Please let us know your max budget per night and we will be happy to offer suggestions on how to proceed.

I probably wouldn't want to pay a lot more than $100, maybe up to $115 but I know there will probably be additional parking fees too on top of the total PRICELINE bid.

With only one re-bid zone i would bid as follows:

Select Resort Waikoloa...

Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $100, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINE

Select 4* Waikoloa...

Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $100

If rejected i'd then wait 24 hours and increase each bid by $10 (so your bid amounts are $105 and $110)... then if that is rejected try one more time after 24 hours, using $105 and $115 as your bid amounts.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good luck! Keep us updated and let us know how it goes.

Got the Hapuna Beach Prince for $95 per night. 1/25/2010-1/27/2010

Had to change dates due to flight cancellation.

Also got a car on priceline for $19 per day.
