secrets is closing down...so if you ever wanna go back there i say do it for yout 1 yr Ann....Dec 31 they close for good...im so upset bc i wanted to go for our HM since the price was right!!

would you think about a cruise? you can get good deal for that time a year! Then again if your a drinker thats not included!

This is not true. Secrets is being sold to the Excellence Group. They are taking over their Punta Cana and Mayan Riviera resorts as of this fall and are not making any big changes to them. I have booked the Excellence Riviera Maya for next March! Cant wait!

This will be their website when they begin:
http://www.excellence-resorts.com/http://www.excellence-resorts.com/

thanks...thats funny b/c i called them a few months ago and they told me as of Dec 31,2006 no more bookings as they are selling...

When I went to request a reservation rate for Dec 2007 for Secrets Excellence Cancun it said

We went there for our honeymoon and it was beautiful! I highly recommend it. There is another secrets resort open in riveria maya, it's new. I forgot the name of it, it starts with an M. Check that one out and see if it's available. Good luck

I just returned from there and what i heard was that the original investors were buying the place. I dont think anything is changing and they are also building a new Secrets in Riveiera Cancun too.
Does your travel agent know anything?

Here are some pics

Did you go to the one that already exists in Cancun? Are they building another one?

Yes it will be . That was me that posted the nfo about the new management.

If you call Secrets, they WILL tell you they are closing because technically they are. They have no obligation to forward you information on the new management. If you look on www.funjet.com or another one of the resort wholesalers look for 'Excellence Riviera Maya' or 'Excellence Punta Cana'... SAME RESORT NEW MANAGEMENT I SWEAR!

The changeover happens this fall and the new website will be www.excellence-resorts.com.

There is TONS of info on this on tripadvisor.com
