I will begin by saying this was our first trip to Desire, but it certainly will NOT be our last. We were nervous and excited from the time we booked. We scoured the boards and made an attempt to learn everything that we could. I'm not sure if that was to calm our nerves or to heighten our excitement. It did both!
Every post that I read about the staff, as well as guests, being friendlier than anywhere else, was true! We made more friendships than we have ever made at a "vanilla" resort. (S and K, your friendliness and tips made us feel so comfortable. And your icebreaker, well, that will never be forgotten!) The staff could not have been more accommodating. They work so hard! Candido, our waiter at both breakfast and lunch, quickly became our very favorite. He was absolutely amazing! A great big thank you to Kuko, who made our necklaces and provided very interesting conversation while doing so! Sylvia at the pool is the most hard-working, gracious woman, and Danny does an outstanding job with the pool beds and chairs. The list goes on and on! Please, please consider tipping. A little bit goes a very long way, and they all deserve that and more with their hard work.
One other shout out goes to Jonathan who takes the Breathless Photos. He is professional and a phenomenal photographer! We purchased a book with the photos he captured. It will be our most treasured memory from our trip! If you even think you may like to try it, DO IT! You will not regret it!
The only tip I wish I had read before arriving at Desire, was to bring some type of cover-up for the evenings. We are from Maine and we still found it very chilly! The after dinner entertainment is outside and some nights went from chilly to downright cold!
If you are considering Desire, book it! You will not regret it! After 7 days there, we still are not sure of our "label". We are 100% positive that we loved the friendliness, nudity, and sexually-charged atmosphere that Desire provides. Our week at Desire brought us so much closer as a couple and made us fall in love all over again. In my opinion, that is so much more important than figuring out our "label". We'll return next year, and every year after that, and continue trying to figure it out. If we don't, we will certainly have fun trying.
If you have any questions, please feel free to pm us and we would be happy to try to help.
For the wonderful friends that we met, we hope to celebrate Valentine's Day 2016 with you!
