Talking The NEW Azul Fives...Anyone else considering this resort??

So my FI and I STILL have not picked a resort but we have narrowed down our options, and one of them is the new ai resort in Playa Del Carmen called Azul Fives. My TA told me abou this resort today..so I am excited. The resort is said to be opening on Dec 1, 08.The neat thing about Azul Fives is that they offer both AI and EP!!
Just curious if there are any other brides to be out there that are considering this resort I am a little nervous about it being new, but I'm guessing that they should have major issues figured out 10 months out when we plan to get married in Oct 09. She assured me that they will go above and beyond for weddings at their location because they are a karisma owned resort. Is anyone else considering Azul Fives??
Check out some of these pics!! (obviously most of these are computerized model pictures of what things will look like but you get the idea)

I looked into the Fives but my travel agent talked me into the Azul Sensatori Resort. It is a little bigger and more cost effective for me. Check it out on their website All Inclusive Cancun Vacations - All Inclusive Mexico Vacations - Riviera Maya Resorts - Karisma Hotels

The answer is YES after reading your post and researching it online!

It is gorgeous. I love how modern it is and the roof decks of the presidential suites would be perfect for throwing a pre wedding bash!

THANK YOU THANK YOU for making me look at this one.

We go in September so I am going to see if we can do a site visit. We are already going to Azul Sensatori which also looks nice.

Do you know how they differ in price?

Thank you again!

Wow...those pictures look amazing. It is so modern and new. How beautiful. I hear a lot of vendors are boycotting Karisma resorts because they charge an "outside vendor fee" for people like photographers and DJ's. Does anyone know anything about this??

Most resorts charge an outside vendor fee. I have researched a lot of the resorts and more than half charge a fee.

The Azul Fives is opening Dec.1st, so they are runnign an amazing promotion to get people to stay at their resort. We are planning on getting married in October '09 and our TA quoted us $1000 pp for 7 days..def a price that people will never see again!!
