We have been to both and really much prefer Pearl. It's better in all aspects. The beach and pier are beautiful, the pool and jacuzzi are much bigger and quite nice, the rooms are great, the food is fantastic, service is fabulous, etc. I am sure that Pearl will be everyone's choice in the upcoming year .......... it is wonderful and as it reaches capacity, the "vibe" will soar. We will be there from June 6-12 ........ hope to see you!

Just got back from 3 at DRM and 4 at DP, no question in our minds Pearl is the place we will return. Tommer is spot on!

First LS vacation was RM in March. Just got back from Pearl.

Initially was disappointed with Pearl, solely on the basis of lack of people. Arrived on a Monday, but by Thursday it was picking up.

When decent occupancy, Pearl is the winner, based on food quality, the grounds, the beach, and the jacuzzi. Nice spa and the rooms are MUCH nicer.

The playroom is much better at RM, however.

We have decided future visits will be to the Pearl, but we will ensure there is an event or LS group booked to ensure critical mass of people to make exciting.

We have been or RM 3 times but next July we're booked at Pearl, and can't wait. While I don't think it's possible to have a bad vacation at either one, we're anxious to give Pearl a try and there are 6 other couples from our annual July trip joining us. T & L
