We'll all be rooting for you!I’m well freakin aware of how stingy they’ve been with CL discounts!! It’s been a harsh few months!
It is clearly taking a shot at random, but it’s the only shot I have. @vinotinto I am likely to take advantage for a future trip also. But for this trip, the group really wants CR, and I really want CL for the weekend, so I won’t be changing if n/a. Sadly!

Thanks! I was trying to match it with a resort name, no wonder I came up short.
For all that’s holy, don’t ever try it. It’s addictive. The discounts were soooo awesome for years, but they seem to have cut those off. I have become a big fan of buying a bottle or two of room wine instead!
I’m looking forward to acting as the guinea pig!We'll all be rooting for you!
We need a moment of silence for the demise of the 40% AP discounts for CL.
They used to be so plentiful!
I've legit had to talk myself down from booking full pop CL for the first part of this upcoming trip. Fortunately, the new rates are so ridiculous - 2x the AP rates for a regular room - that I just cannot follow through. I can buy some damn nice wine and dinners for the extra, for goodness' sake.Absolutely

Everyone listed on the reservation is eligible for the bounce back option. They can make their own reservations.
Thats great news! Thank you!Everyone listed on the reservation is eligible for the bounce back option. They can make their own reservations.
Call them today, they will tell you how long you have. It is my understanding that you can change a BB reservation to different dates, pending availability. Please correct me if I am wrong.
You are correct, you can change dates and resorts once you have something booked - based on availability. And it’s up to 35% for deluxe. Most deluxe are 35%, though when I booked, the Poly was not 35%, it was less.
Interesting. Can you share the numbers? My BB CL at GF was also a little less than what I had calculated. I can’t figure out if the discount was a little less than 35% off or if they are charging the $35 per extra adult, starting with our second night (my DD turns 18 on our second night, and while the CM said it counts as she’s 17 for the stay, the total was higher than what I expected).
Like all offers, it depends on dates and resorts. While few rooms are technically excluded (think 3-br villas), in practice, when you call only some are available. You really need to call.
When I asked about the Poly, it was a 15% discount, but all 12 nights weren’t available so I booked elsewhere. If you see your nightly rate before tax, multiply that by 35%, subtract from the rate and see if it matches. You may need to add tax in after the discount, I believe it’s 12.5%. Could it be possible that all your nights didn’t qualify for the discount?
Sometimes different nights are different prices. For example if you are staying midweek, but then some of your dates go into the weekend, Friday and Saturday nights room rates are traditionally a little bit more $$.
Hey there, thanks! It’s not that; I’ve been booking bouncebacks for years (I’m the OP), and I have always been able to calculate correctly by checking the exact price for each night that is included in the discount, and then adding the tax and the extra adult charges. I also booked another bounceback for a different time period in the same call and that one was exactly what I expected. It’s not a miscalculation. I’m either getting charged the second extra adult for each night after my daughter turns 18 or the discount wasn’t quite 35%.
I should have looked at your name before I responded! Of course you know how this works! Weird about the extra adult thing - and unfortunately, so true about the CM's.
