lcoore Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Hi I am looking for a hotel in Maui for the april 20-23. I would be happy with a 3.5star in zone 1 or 4. I am not sure if at what price to start bidding or if should just spend a little more and try to get a resort in one of these areas instead. Link to comment

lcoore Posted April 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 I am willing to spend up to 120 per night Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Since the order of the zones can change as new zones are added or the existing zones are re-named, please use the zone names, and not numbers, to avoid any confusion for future readers of this thread.I'm assuming that you're looking at the Kaanapali-Lahaina or Wailea-Makena zones? If so, i'm guessing that your budget won't likely be enough for a 4* hotel in either of these zones for your dates... however, if you want to try that route first we'll be happy to suggest a strategy for you to follow, or one at the 3.5* level if you want to go directly for that first.Ultimately it depends upon your budget and what you're looking for from this stay.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

lcoore Posted April 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Thanks for your response, I am looking at the Kaanapali-Lahaina or Wailea-Makena zones, I don't need a 4* the 3.5* level will be sufficient, can you suggest a strategy for that, I would like to spend up to 120 at most per night, if possible.Thanks Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 At the 3.5* level you have TWO re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.(NOTE: 're-bid zone1' is not the same as priceline's Zone1, 're-bid zone2' is not the same as priceline's Zone2, etc, etc)Select 3.5* Kaanapali...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $85, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Wailea...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $85, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Kaanapali and re-bid zone2...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $95, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Wailea and re-bid zone2...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $95, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Kaanapali and Wailea...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $105, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3.5* Kaanapali and Wailea and re-bid zone2...Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $115Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

lcoore Posted July 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2010 HI, I tried all the methods stated below but had no luck, so I just used my airline discount and booked a hotel as it was too close in time to try again with priceline Link to comment
