Took my girl (now Wifey and the coolest chick ever) there about 5 years ago,
It was really nice. We never left the grounds. And they say not to except with a large party going somewhere. It's pretty rough ride in a nice bus but your going through some poor parts for sure.
Ex is the farthest north drop the buses make I believe. It's almost a 45 min ride. Get a beer as soon as you get off the plane. I bought six for the ride. All we did was drink and eat lobster.
They also do a huge sort of low country cookout every day on the beach. Except they use a lot of lobster. My girl speaks spanish and they seemed to gravitate towards her at dinner wich helped my cause for sure. I already new the word "grande" and used it a lot when ordering lobster after lobster every night.....
Beach can be rough, horses looked beat and spooked. I opted not to ride. No insurance at the time and I could not imagine where I would have ended up if things got broken in a foreign country.
If you tip the help and tell them you want the in room cooler kept stocked with plenty of wine. They will do it for next to nothing. It costs them nothin anyway. Breakfast is awesome too in the big dining hall. Made to order eggs and great fruit as you can imagine. We tried to carry 2 bottles of wine on the plane ride home. No can do. wish we had drank them both on the bus ride to the airport.
Anyway, hope you have a fantastic trip dude!
Some of ya'll might remember Jodi.....
