Vacation Condo Deal in Waikiki - Sleeps More, Pay Less
One alternative to paying the high cost of hotels in Hawaii is to stay in a condo. Combining the advantage of often accomodating more guests with the convenience of having your own kitchen makes a condo stay in Hawaii definitely something to consider. Travelzoo has just announced a great condo deal in Waikiki through Bookit.com. You can book a one bedroom condo that sleeps 5 for rates starting at $129 which is 44% off. For more information or to book this deal, go to Bookit.com
Here is what people are saying about Bookit.com. Of course, this is just one reader's experience so always check offer out throughly before booking
When I booked a cabo trip on bookit.com they told me that gratuities
were included in the deal. when we got to the hotel we were explicitly
told that they weren't. I wrote a letter to bookit.com and within a day
I got a telephone call with someone trying to fix the situation. they
asked if i had proof that i was told gratuities were not included. i
told them i didn't but i figured the hotel would share this info with
them. Well, the agent who called me tracked down the information
himself, discovered that I was in fact charged for gratuities and
refunded my credit card $150. I was very impressed with their personal
attention and rectification of the situation. I would recommend
bookit.com to both you and your bargainhunterhotline readers.

| User Review by: K Horton from Portland, Oregon | |
| jWe just stayed there with our 3 kids. It was very clean and our room was in good condition. It was nice to have 2 rooms plus a kitchen with kids. The pool and tennis court were really nice. They rent rackets if you don't bring your own. All the staff were very nice. They have complementay coffee in the lobby each day. Nice if you are to lazy to make your own in your room. The only draw back would be that it is at the end of waikiki beach by the zoo so can be a bit of a walk to the center of waikiki. The bus stops are very close if you want to take the city bus. We will be back. | |
