Did you try calling to reserve the lagoon OWB with points?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Has anyone stayed at the Ritz Carlton - Kapalua? I just booked a 7 night stay for 16,800 UR points per night, does anyone think this is a good rate? and worthwhile hotel to stay at?
Still interested?

Radisson Blu Chicago 2 nights, with the free certificates, and when my account was hacked and points used to purchase gift cards on Amazon, after restoring my points, they gave me Platinum status for 14 months.
I was the Best,still the Best, and will always be the Best.
