LOL the carne asada pic is for an activist group out here trying to save taco trucks, LC Rachel hipped me to it...they are trying to take them away!

Anyway, I agree with LC Rachel about the Barcelo in Mismaloya. One of my BMs stayed there, I have pics if you're interested. It's on a beautiful bay/cove.

Yes, I've spoken with Selma. She's arranged a group rate for us if we decide to stay there. It seems really nice but I'm worried about the cost for our guests. It's kinda pricey and ideally I don't want to exclude anyone because I picked a resort that was too expensive... and I'd like to stay in the same resort as everyone else.

Yes , I feel the same but our guests will be spread around the marina hotels so at least my family and some friends will stay with us..

Hi,

 

My thoughts...

 

I have just decided on the Buenaventura hotel for our stay and wedding day. I loved the look of Velas and have visited it (not stayed) and it is beautiful but I couldn't get a response out of them. I sent several emails and even left a phone msg but with no luck. This didn't sit well with me; couldn't imagine the next few months of planning my wedding with their apparent lack of interest. And...its pretty pricey! Dreams came in a close 2nd but I chose Buena as its much smaller and I wanted a more intimate resort.

 

Hope this helps
