Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya Brides??

Yes, that totally helps thanks...and it makes sense.  I think we'll just let everyone know that we'll try and have tables reserved in the buffet area for the birthday supper for my BF and FI's daughter (which is more important for us to celebrate/acknowledge than a "welcome dinner" anyway) and talk to the WP ahead of time about a birthday cake.  Not sure if they'll go for that in the buffet area though.

Maybe maybe not, but you don't know unless you ask right? And remember... Money talks!

I'm wondering if anyone has mailed a package to the resort before?

 

I am thinking of mailing a package to the resort of my OOT items. the WC is happy to receive it but I'm hesitant in sending it by mail and having it arrive there.

 

Any ideas how I can get my OOT items to the resort?

[MJKH]

I haven't looked into it at all...I just don't feel comfortable taking the chance.  We're flying with an airline that will allow each of us one suitcase + one carryon, and we can check another bag each for $20.  I'm hoping we can get all of our stuff into 4 suitcases and 2 carryons.  If not, we'll be asking my parents to take another suitcase for us.  I think for us it would be cheaper to spend $60 on 3 more suitcases with the airline than to pay the shipping/postage for all of our "welcome bag" items to Mexico.

Has anyone received email from the WCs lately? I recently re-sent an email that hadn't been responded to in over a month, and still nothing...

[MJKH]

I've given up...the absolutely essential things are done, only because my TA happily took the time to call down there.  With the couple of e-mails I've sent down myself, I've had no response.  When December rolls around and it's time to start firming up a few things, I'll try again or put my TA on it.

Hi ladies,  I also am looking at this resort for our wedding end of April early May 2011.  I found a great review on Trip Advisor http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g499445-d599193-r79801266-Grand_Sirenis_Riviera_Maya-Akumal_Yucatan_Peninsula.html   That maybe helpful.  Any other information that you have obtained on this resort and wedding packages I would greatly appreciate you passing on to me   I received a great quote for the resort side of things but have not heard back from the hotel yet for the wedding package pricing.  Kileelain, when is your big day?  Would be awesome to keep in touch with you and maybe exchange notes etc?
