mfay,
I would have to disagree on the of what role the disco/play room plays on the average person's Desire experience. Many of us Desire veteren's are "vampires", we wake up at 11am and go to bed @ 3-4am...usually closing down the disco and enjoying the playroom not to mention watching the sexy ladies dancing on the poles.
I do not have a problem with Desire doing renovations. I applaud them for that. It is just the way they go about it. They could have posted a message on their website stating that during the months of February and March the disco will be closed for renovation..... Not just closing it without notice. You know the plans have been in the works for months. With notice, guests could choose what effect that closure would have on their Desire experience. We went to Hawaii a couple of years ago and 3 months prior to our trip we were notified the resort would be undergoing construction and that we were free to reschedule our trip if needed.....they communicated! Once again, they have taken away a major part of the resort and offer nothing i return (discounted rates, free night on future trip, etc) Why didn't they wait to do this in August & September when their occupancy rates are much lower? I am disappointed. Once again, i am hoping no surprises are sprung up on us during our trip this June.
