I can do that!<BR>They did rave about the Holoholo boat cruise.<BR>172=Toooo long!<BR>Kal<BR>ps...hot enuff for ya? ;-(

Chylene Jul 10th, 2002 09:32 AM

I'm going today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah Jul 10th, 2002 09:36 AM

wow great deal Kal I am booked in August at the Hyatt for $95. How could they call that a 3* listing. Was it the Hyatt Regency and how was your room? I heard if you are facing the Atrium it is noisy. Is that so?

Sarah Jul 10th, 2002 09:38 AM

kal I am rethinking a night at the Hyatt Regency on Kauai do you know any islander type deals in poipu? I have a condo in Hanalei for two weeks thought one extra night at beginning of trip in Poipu might be different.

kal Jul 10th, 2002 09:58 AM

Sarah, If I understand you correctly (meaning still a bit hungover!)...<BR>It was the Hyatt Regency SF Airport-1333 Bayshore Hiway, B'game.<BR><BR>Our friends were staying at the Westin at the "other end of the block" and I read on "bft.com" that someone just scored the "3*Westin" for $40. I assumed when I bid for the 3* I'd never get the Hyatt, but whammo! thank goodness for Mrs kal still being in training so I had a Desig Driver!<BR><BR>I reviewed submission and note it says "Hotel Quality Level: 3-Star or better". <BR>Guess we got the "or better"?<BR>The room was excellent! It was "on the corner" so it was a large room facing Hwy 101..no airport noise noted and the fwy noise was pretty much zip. <BR><BR>As for Poipu, no can help. I believe Suuuuuz likes The Whaler and they may have deals. We drove by it last trip and agree it looks nice and we'd prob. give it a try if we went Southshore again. Our people treat us too good to leave the CocoCoast.<BR>171.5!<BR>Kal

Sarah Jul 10th, 2002 10:15 AM

thanks Kal I think I am going to bid for that hotel.

Sue Jul 13th, 2002 07:32 PM
