Secrets

Well since the hurricane most of Cancun and the surrounding area have been devastated, and almost all of the resorts are closed due to damages! My problem:

FH and I booked Secrets for our HM and even though its still 6 1/2 months away and they are saying they will be up and running again by January, I am still very apprehensive! Should I cancel and go somewhere else? If so where......it took me forever to come to a decision on Secrets I can not imagine doing it all over again!!

Re: Secrets

I think you should look around. Places like Cancun don't have much money, so it takes them along time to rebuild.
What about a Sandals in the Caribbean, or a resort in Aruba, or a cruise.

If you need any help FM me, I am good with finding and booking vacations.

Good Luck!!

Re: Secrets

I am having the SAME problem. We didn't book yet, but we just found something --Adeventuras Spa Palace, Riviera Maya. It had everything we were looking for, and now I feel as though we should also start over.

They say most of the resorts shoud be open by December, but what about the surrounding areas? Ugh, so confused. AGAIN!

Re: Secrets

I know I feel the same exact way! It took me forever to finally find a place that had everything I was looking for and now......I really do not think I can start the search over again!

Thanks!! I think we are going to stick with it! It says they will reopen Nov. 25th, so I am sure if they are opening then, by the time May comes they will have all of the kinks worked out! Now I just have to keep my fingers crossed for the HM suite!!

Re: Secrets

a girl i know was having a destination wedding in cancun for januray 20,2006 and she had to cancel, the hotel said they have a lot of damage and that there is a lot of damage down there, i think her hotel was meliel smtg, not sure, but that is also only 2 months away your might have time for them to rebuild but maybe look for second place as a just in case and check back with hotel in 2-3 months, if they still arent running right at least you will have a backup....good luck!

I disagree. Cancun relies on the tourist industry for their economy. they are going to rebuild as quickly as possible. We are not talking about a mom and pop operation here. I'm certain that the hotel will be fine by the time you go for your honeymoon.

Re: Secrets

We are going to Aventura Spa Palace in Riviera Maya. They had no damage at all. I heard that Cancun rebuilds very quickly. We still have 8 months, so we decided we're not changing. We spent enough time looking for the perfect place for us!

Re: Secrets

We're going to Secrets for our HM about 3 weeks before you and we just booked it last week. So if there are any problems, I will be sure to tell you when we get back!!

Re: Secrets

We're rebooking our HM as well - decided to do a cruise in Europe instead...

Royal Hideaway is supposed to open March '06 and that's just too close for comfort.
