henry Posted January 13, 2005 Report Posted January 13, 2005 I had previously bid $105 for a Riviera Maya resort from 2/21 - 3/1, then added Cozumel as a free rebid and went up to $115. I then dropped off the last day and went up to $120 with no success. I'll try again in a few days. I'm really hoping to get the Omni Puerto Aventuras. (AAA rate of 206).The plan is to vacate from 2/15 to 3/1. OPA is sold out from 2/18-21, so we will probably hang out in Cancun or Cozumel for the first week. This is a very optional trip, so if I can't nail down the second week we may just wait until later in the spring.
rc408 Posted January 13, 2005 Report Posted January 13, 2005 I'm really interested in what you end up with here. I would love to do some diving down that way and a good hotel price would make it that much more of a possibility.
henry Posted January 14, 2005 Author Report Posted January 14, 2005 I'll keep you posted. I'm kicking myself a little bit because the OPA was available on Hotwire a couple of months ago for about $145. It's now about $194. (OPA is the 4.5 * boutique on Hotwire). I'll keep trying, but I'm not interested in paying much more than $150 per night.Maybe the Bahamas...
henry Posted February 4, 2005 Author Report Posted February 4, 2005 Well the Omni PA is now sold out for almost all of the time we'll be there. We ended up renting a condo just a few yards down the beach in PA. Condos look like a good alternative in this area when Priceline doesn't work out. It's 51 degrees here in Minneapolis right now, but it's only whetting my appetite for tropical weather. I can't wait!On another note, Happy Birthday to BetterBidding!
