Priceline Express Deals

[Haley R]

Sorry I'm sure this has been asked a million times, but I've never used Hotwire Hot Deals before. If there is an airport shuttle, it's in Bonnet Creek, and no resort fee is it a guaranteed Disney resort? I'm looking at 2/18-2/19 right now and seeing a 3 star resort for $80 which I'm assuming is an All Star, but I wouldn't book unless I know I'm for sure getting a Disney resort.

The $80 3-star one is All Star Sports
POR is also there 3.5 star $138
POFQ is there 3.5 star $210

POFQ is there 3.5 star $210

Thank you! How did you know the one for $210 is POFQ?

Thank you! How did you know the one for $210 is POFQ?

Both POR and POFQ are 3.5 * properties in Bonnet Creek with 4.3/5 ratings.
CBR and CSR are 3.5 stars, but different ratings.
This property is located very close to Disney Springs on the map, giving another clue it’s one of the PO properties.

I know the other listing is POR because it lists “pet friendly” as an amenity and has Royal Room as a room type. This property lists a Garden View room type, found at POFQ.

To double check my hunch, I used the draw feature in the app to make my search area very small and only include the area I know is POFQ. My results were this opaque listing and the revealed POFQ, nothing else. I only did this last step this morning, as I was pretty confident it was POFQ just from the features of the listing when I posted last night.

Thank you so much! I was using my computer. Can you only do the drawing on the app?

Yes. I find the app more cumbersome, so I only use it for final verification when someone wants specific info about a particular listing. The app also does not give distances to landmarks, which is helpful for figuring out ASMu from ASMo, for example.

And thank you for your work in the AS Music renovations thread - we’re booked there for May through an opaque HW deal (unfortunately not as good a deal as that $80 AS Sports you found).

I wish the $80 was for music instead of sports but we’ve never stayed at sports either. I’m not just sure about the double beds. I’m just looking for one night so we can my maternity photos around the parks. The weekend would be better so Dh doesn’t have to miss work.

Thanks! Hopefully you get a renovated room for your trip. I may post a couple more dates on here for confirmation of which hotel it is. I feel pretty comfortable with Hotwire. I’m lost when it comes to Priceline since I can’t use hotel canary

I'm not as comfortable with Priceline, either, and there doesn't seem to be much Disney there lately. Seems to go in spurts as to which site has the deals.

With Sports, if it's just two of you, each of you could take a bed. I wouldn't want to share a double bed, especially while pregnant, but stretching out in one to myself is good.

And congratulations on your so-to-arrive Mouseketeer!

That’s always an option and Dh might actually welcome it lol. I’ve been sleeping with a large maternity pillow that I know he doesn’t love and I just in the last week started having terrible nightmares and moving like crazy in my sleep.

Thanks we’re really excited!

Dh said he wants to go on the weekend for sure since he would have to miss two days of work otherwise. It doesn’t seem like we’ll get a good deal in February though for weekends. Is anyone willing to help me find a deal any weekend in February for one night? My goal would be to stay under $300 if possible

These are the nights we could do:
2/15, 2/16, 2/20, 2/21, 2/22, 3/23, 2/28, 2/29 and 3/1

I just booked Dolphin for 2/20-2/24. $206 a night, I believe (PE deal). Total with taxes, resort fees, etc was $1101.36 (after a 5% code someone had kindly shared here).

Forget 2/15-16. President's Day weekend is nuts

2/20
Coronado 3.5* 4.1/5 = $279
2/21
Coronado 3.5* 4.1/5 = $252
Dolphin is a revealed deal $246+$34 resort fee
2/23
Swan AND Dolphin both appear as revealed deal $189+$34 resort fee

We only need one night. Is it available for just one night? Thanks for looking! I’m not great with Priceline. I would hate if it isn’t actually dolphin

Thanks for checking! I’m interested in both swan and dolphin. We will have a car so that adds another expense unfortunately. 2/23 would be better price wise but Dh would have to take that Monday off. I’m not sure how on board he is with that. He’s trying to save all of his days for paternity leave which makes complete since.

Are those deals on Priceline or hotline?
