Thanks for all of the info! I've been waiting to book this property. I went through Hyatt Concierge on Twitter to book an 8 night stay in June with a Points Advance reservation. Hopefully the hotel is fully open by then!

Let us know how it goes! I'm sure there will be an official press release again in the coming month or so.

I contacted my Concierge via Email and they told me reservations are not open yet until April 1.

Anybody else has had success to book rooms?

Successfully booked a few nights for this September on Thursday 3/10 using points. Originally was looking for this November but after some searching, the concierge I spoke with on the phone said nothing was loaded after September 27th.

Beware: Hotel Opens with Construction noise ongoing

Looks like they want to open a month earlier on April 1st. Not an April Fools joke, but surprising they want you to stay while construction is ongoing?

Christmas/New Years dates are WIDE OPEN. Book them now on points and cancel later.
