For $3300 I'll mattress run the 7 EQNs if I need them

Agreed, but the $680 per night room rate is kind of high as well. I remember when I booked PH this year in April for June the cash rate was closer to $500, so the rate should probably change. I also just looked at the fine print on Luxury Escapes and the cancellation is in the form of credit but you can do one day change. So there is also some risk attached to it.
