I got all the way to confirm the reservation for 1 week and then got the error message. We'll see. Sure would be great to have the 2 bedroom villa for 6 nights for $3.60

Still works perfectly fine. Just booked, and even though it didn't initially say I had 3rd night free, I got it in the end. Here is my confirmation email. Only part that confuses me is the Special Request of 400 PN UGX.

It only seems to work on nights were the deluxe villa is 600 a night, more than likely $600 USD, but showing 600 UGX per night. I did get it to work on nights I may not be able to get there on. I did use my AMEX gift card which has just about 6000 UGX left on it.

Might be slowly dying now...
I was trying to book some more nights but cannot get the UGX rate to come up. Only for the example of Jan 15-18. When I input other dates, it goes only to one page of all US rates...

Wow, this is fun! Have most of February booked in either Oceanfront Suite or Private Villa. Now if they would only honor this, memory reminds me how Phuket rates never went through in similar offers. 
Wouldn't it actually be funny to show up at the hotel with Ugandan Schillings and pay the rate.

Yeah, it took me awhile to figure that one out. If you're going for more than 3 days and you're travelling with someone else, consider making one reservation in your name ond one in their's. That way, if the hotel honors one reservation/person, you'd still get 6 days.
