Finally got in AP site! Now Can't Decide!

[aubriee]

After complaining for the last couple of weeks that I couldn't get into the AP site to check into the best rates program, I finally found a computer at work that let me in. I have no idea why mine at home, nor any of the other computers at work wouldn't let me in, but last night I just happened to log onto our secretary's computer and it let me in. Including taxes, for my dates I found POP at $65.79/night, CB or CS at $104.81, POFQ and PORS for $121.54, or AKL standard view for $143.84. I don't know why POFQ and PORS were more expensive than the other two moderates, but I'd just as soon stay at CS or CB anyway if I was going to try a moderate. After running the numbers for my eight nights I have the following options:

Value x8 nights=$526.32
CS or CB x8 nights= $838.48
AKL x8 nights=$1150.72

I really wanted to do a split stay again so my other options are:
Value x 4 nights and mod x 4 nights=$682.40
Value x 4 nights and AKL x 4 nights= $838.52
Moderate x 4 nights and AKL x 4 nights= $994.60

Difference in price=
For .04: value 4 nights + AKL 4 nights vs mod 8 nights
For $312.20: value 4 nights + AKL 4 nights vs value 8 nights
For $156.08: mod 4 nights + AKL 4 nights vs value 4 nights and AKL 4 nights
For $156.08: mod 8 nights vs value 4 nights + mod 4 nights
For $156.12: value 4 nights + AKL 4 nights vs value 4 nights + mod 4 nights
For $312.16: mod 8 nights vs value 8 nights

Switching resorts I would have to pay two nonrefundable deposits, but I like switching resorts. Which would you do? This is for December by the way.

Since you want to switch resorts, then that is what you should do. If it were me and I intended to switch I would opt for CS for 4 nights and AKL for the other 4. CS is one of our favorite resorts and the beauty of both CS and AKL would make me choose those over a value resort any day and the prices seem very good for those two resorts.

Let us know what you decide!
