Here are a few things to share: The resort was completely booked while I was there and a Manager that we got to know said the next few months they are at full capacity. Friday, Sat and Sunday are huge daus for weddings- 3 every day. They do a good job of scattering everyone. All of my family except for 1 room all booked in the Dreams side - which I recommend. The Hacienda side has very nice rooms and even good views but the mosquitoes are really bad! I had my hair done with Trinidad- she did an amazing job! The Seaside grill is awesome for the ceremony- super romantic! ill post my review in the am. Oh and if you want to book spa treatments for your guests do it when you arrive. each day there is a sheet put in your room for the days events and spa tratments are like 40 % off in those! They will let you book treatments in bulk. Carlos the Manager is super nice.

Congratulations! We'll all be waiting for your review and photos with anticipation!

There were no spa discounts advertised while I was there, lucky you! I have read elsewhere that sometimes resorts offer spa discounts when the weather is bad, as they know people will be looking for something to do off the beach. Could this have been the reason? Otherwise, perhaps it's just something new that they are doing, as no other bride has mentioned this before.

I love those shells...we are getting married June 12th, 2009. It would be so great if we could use those. I haven't seen your pics yet to check them out. Did they work out for you? Thanks for the insite.

I have a picture that I tried to put in my profile but I can never see it when I am on the forum and when I post blogs...am I doing something wrong?

Hey y'all

Just curious if anyone else is having problems with their guest booking right now because of all the media hype on mexico right now...and better yet any suggestions on how to calm there fears!?!?

[Blkatz]

The problems in Mexico are near the US borders not in Cancun area. Tulum is very safe and the resort is guarded

Hey Chantel,

My wedding is June 29th too - and I think I have the adult poolside reserved...I'm not 100% sure though. That was just the location we requested when we sent in our deposit. But we aren't getting married until 5pm so I don't know how they work these things Does anyone know how long a typical reception lasts??
