Default Does this place still exist? Secrets Excellence RM

Secrets Excellence Riviera Maya pictures from mexico photos on webshots

Here are someone's pictures from the place. It's not listed on the Secrets website anymore.

Secrets Resorts & Spas: Unlimited-Luxury, A new and better way to have it all.

My friend honeymooned here & she wants to know if it's still open. She is concerned it was destroyed in 2005.

I sent my friend the website & she didn't think that was the same place. It also says that it is new on the website. I wonder if it's the same place, but just looks different now.

EDIT: I had sent her the page to excellence Playa Mujeres.

My good friend had her honeymoon here.. the DAY of the hurricane in 2005. Her plane was the last one into Cancun and they diverted her and her husband to a school for shelter for a day and a half. Needless to say, when she finally got to the resort after the hurricane, they had 90% of it already cleaned up. By the end of her honeymoon, it was like nothing happened! She said it was gorgeous regardless of what happened!

Does anyone know if its possible to get married at the gazebo at Excellence.

It looks like such a great spot, but it doesn't appear that you could really have guests seated to see any of the cermony.
