I started another thread that was about red road and Uncle Roberts as a good introductory to the Big Island. Part of the discussion strayed to the subject of the Grand Naniloa and some very helpful information was provided by Carey. I thought my experiences from that thread would be better here as this thread subject is specific to the Naniloa…
I had called the hotel and booked a newly renovated Bay View room that includes daily free round of golf for each guest. The total, with a senior discount, averaged $134 per night ($152.67 with taxes and fees). On the other thread Carey clued me in to an upcoming “flash sale” for the hotel that she was notified via email. I went to the webpage and signed up for their A-List membership, which is free and has some benefits; 10% off published rate, a free welcome basket at check in and a free room upgrade (subject to availability). I got the flash sale email today, checked out the website and made some calls. I found other options I didn’t know about and ended up with a good result. They have some interesting deals and combo’s going on right now…
Bay View, newly renovated room rate;
Senior rate –$134 per night ($152.67 with taxes and fees). Free daily round of golf for each guest
A-List Members – 10% off published rate, a free welcome basket at check in and a free room upgrade (subject to availability)
Flash sale – It’s 18% off published rate. $122.65/night (+ taxes and fees – I estimate it would be around $144.65). Free daily round of golf for each guest
So it would seem the flash sale would be the best deal, however I also found another promotion;
Bay View room, free golf and a rental car for $149/night (+ taxes and fees). Plus with the A-List membership I am eligible for the room upgrade and welcome basket. After doing brain straining mental math, and some quick car rental cost research, I figured this was the best deal. While the room with a car is priced higher, it’s cheaper than renting a car separately. I figure we’ll save about $200 for the 10 day car rental…
Anyway, thanks to Carey for pointing out the sale which led me to find the deal I made! Our hotel is booked, our car is booked and we got our flights booked as well. Now we’re just counting the days…
