YYCAndrew Posted April 5, 2010 Report Posted April 5, 2010 Hello,I'm trying to book a resort in Kauai for April 20-27th. So far, I've tried up to $115 with the various zones. Looking over past successes, it looks like a lot of people have been able to get resorts at $110 or less. Any advice/tips would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Andrew

yellowdog Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 YYCAndrewJust bid in $5 steps untill you hit the max.Have you looked at hotwire for your stay?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Yellowdog.
YYCAndrew Posted April 7, 2010 Author Report Posted April 7, 2010 Hotwire's going to be my last resort I think.I've noticed that the "retail" price that they quote you when entering your bid fluctuates throughout the day. Does a lower "retail" price indicate that a lower bid may be accepted at that point in time?
AaronJB Posted April 7, 2010 Report Posted April 7, 2010 The retail price variation would likely not indicate improved chance of a win.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
YYCAndrew Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Posted April 13, 2010 Update:After trying everyday since making this post and going as high as $140. I was just accepted at the Sheraton for $125 a night.
