How do i win a bid on priceline?

[navigator71]

I've been trying to bid different amounts like some of you have said you won. If I want to spend no more than 100$ what star amount should I click? I keep clicking 4 star but I get denied at $85. Do I just keep trying every day? Or should I lower the star value? I'm looking for the night before we head out in San Juan, on May 1st.

 

Thanks everyone!!!

I might suggest you post this on the 'ask a cruise question' or 'North American Homeports' section for quicker answers. ;) Good Luck!

We used Priceline twice to book hotels in San Juan and were sucessful both times. Here's what I did:

 

Selected Resorts and San Juan and named a price of $95 and won.

Another time I selected the same paramaters and won for $100 I think.

 

I stayed at the Marriott Stellaris and the Hilton Caribe. Both were great.

 

When they rejected my bid one time I added Dorado as another location (because there were no resorts in Dorado) so it was a way to get another bid more quickly and knew I'd be in San Juan as there were no resorts in Dorado at the time.

 

There is a really great priceline bidding thread on the PR ports of call page:

We stayed at Caribe Hilton last year after our cruise and loved it. It is a beautiful property and we had someone tell us to get a room in the garden wing which was wonderful. Large newly remodeled rooms. The ones in the main building are older and not as nice (although oceanview). I bid on priceline and was very happy with our choice. I think I paid $80 or so a night.

Enjoy!:D

Yes, the Caribe Hilton is lovely and can usually be had for around $90, but first I encourage you to go to bidding for travel dot com.
