Marie's Moon Palace Review 04.02.2009

[Eureaka]

Thank you so much for the review! I have also requested David Pena for my photographer and seeing your pictures really helped! The one with the birds is amazing! We just switched our room block to the Grand Moon side and are keeping our fingers crossed to avoid construction, but like you said the size of the room really helps! I can't wait to see more of your pictures! Thanks again!

Thanks for posting your review and congrats! I love your pics on the beach! Do you know where you went for your TTD session? I'd love to know, since I'm bringing my photogs with me and we won't be familiar with the area!

Thank you!
Due to the outside vendor policy at the resort, we had to use an alternate beach, which was more than fine with me. It gave us a little variety in the photos.You'll notice that the beaches closer to town are a lot more pristine and the water much clearer.... Its actually breathtaking at the Beach Palace which is near downtown.
We made arrangements to meet Cecilia at the Forum mall because there was a nice public beach right near by. Unfortunately the tide was up and the beach was under water, so we hopped in Cece's car and drove to another public beach like five minutes away. The Forum mall was like a 30 minute drive to get to, but then only a 20 minute drive back to the MP (the routes were different). We took a taxi which totalled about $45 round trip.

Thanks all!

 

There is a beach right next door to the Forum mall. Theres a parking garage and you literally walk out the entrance of the garage and around the cement wall and you're there. The beach we shot at was further north in downtown. It was a locals beach. I can ask Cecilia what the name of the beach was.

thanks for your help...our photographer is going to be staying at the hotel, but i don't want seaweed in my dress!lol

 

thats good to know the beach is only 30mins away...although we are planning on getting up for sunrise, 30mins might seem like hours at that time in the morning....i'd love to have my ttd in the resort pools, wonder if they'd let us do that!
