Transfer and Arrival
- From the time our plane landed to sitting in the lobby at Desire was 1hr 5 minutes. Very quick, uneventful. The driver offered to stop at a "7-11" if we needed anything.
- Very quick, included a quick tour of the resort. They scheduled us for the 'lecture" a few days later which we declined that morning. No issues there.
- I went down each morning between 8:00-9:00 o'clock and had no problem getting chairs or beds for the day. By about 11am, they were booked.
- My wife and I both really enjoyed the food. Service was as good as we have ever had at any resort, anywhere. A++++++ in this category.
- The nightly entertainment was good, but not great. I think this is an area where Hedonism was better. Also, the layout is such that the entertainment doesn't bring everyone together.
- Very nice, not very big, but always crowded after the nightly entertainment was finishing up. We walked into the "Sin Room" a couple of times but it was empty both times.
- This was definitely the place to meet and mingle with other couples. Lots of fun, the bar is very convenient. Always a nice breeze, beautiful skies. It did not rain for the entire 8 days we were there.
- Great resort, facilities are definitely a step up from Hedonism. We have been to Hedo II several times and Hedo III when it was open.
Food is much better that Hedo, including the service. Big difference in this area.
Couples versus singles. Not sure about this issue. Both the wife and I thought that having singles excluded was a negative. While at Hedo, yes there were times where single guys hit on the wife but never disrespectfully. It just seems to us that having groups of single men/women added to the flavor. I know that differs from the opinion of most, but for us, that was the case. With the exception of a few couples that seemed to have a pre-established "click" to which they belonged, everyone was very friendly, most seemed to be very professional types and I never witnessed anyone being disrespectful or out of line in anyway. Not sure if our next trip will be back here or to Hedo II. but for us both places are winners.
