Visiting Pearl from RM and visa versa

Postby tommer » Sun Jan 06, 2013 11:06 am

Last year when we stayed at RM, they were providing free transportation to Pearl for the day. Does anyone know if this arrangement between RM and Pearl is still available?

The free shuttle service has ended, but there is a special taxi fare($15 each way) available between the two resorts if you ask at the front desk from either location. You can have up to 4 people in the taxi at the same price.

While we were at RM in September we got a group of about 15 together and got a group rate for taxi service...ended up being something like $5 per person as I remember.

We had a group in November visit Pearl for the afternoon and the van was $12 each- well worth it!

Why dont we all chip in and buy Desire a Van to pick us up at the airport and use it to transfer us to Pearl/RM? Is it that hard to provide a shuttle?

Just a little thought lol lets split the two resorts completely and let those couples who pay a little more enjoy the larger pool all to themselves, enjoy the wide open beach close to town,the oversized hottub along with the larger rooms and extra benefits they paid for without having to share lol lol.

Lets tell Desire no more transfers from Temptations to Pearl due to overbooking as we have read is happening and this does concern us both again as we are paying the premium they can go enjoy the family resort lol lol because at Desire we like to run naked and get a little wild on vacation not just topless lol lol lol.
Lets avoid the Braco/Hedo stay cheap on the prude and spend all day overcrowding the nude effect.
Which is one of the top reasons we left them in search of Desire.

We enjoyed staying on the nude side yet we found ourselves having to get up early just race to claim a chair on the nude beach or the nude pool by 9am to avoid the prude side migration day trippers who spent the day overcrowding the nude side then running back to their prude side come sunset.
Nothing sucked more than spending the day having fun with a cool couple or several cool couples only to find out as the sunset they were just visiting for the day or heading back to the other resort.

Don't hate us or cast us out lol lol we like to stay and play at the same place and find meeting new friends the best when we're all staying at the same resort.
We love Desire RM but have always felt the pool too small and the hottub a bit small with the location a climb, as for the rooms they are nice the vibe great.
Pearl has taken everything Desire RM was missing and the most important things to us & made it exactly it's name "The Pearl Of Desire Resorts" with everything Desire RM has only supersized and adding some additional luxury.
Pay the premium enjoy the perks just our view.

Bravo to bamacpl6369! We agree to all you said and hope that perhaps you will be at Pearl when we return I sure hope that Desire stays smart to make their resort the exclusive, wonderful and fun place that it is. Our only issue is that we wish we could return 4 or 5 times a year!!

For the record, there were a number of couples who came to RM from Pearl during the day as the vibe was non existant at Pearl and they "couldn't take it anymore". I'm sure there are times when Pearl is just as "vibed" as RM but not when we were there. To each their own.

If we choose to visit Pearl while we're staying at RM, is there a set time to leave? Would we just be sampling the pool/beach, or would it be possible to stay for dinner and try out the disco?
