I love this resort, having been there 3 times. Air Canada vacations called me and asked if I wanted to switch to somewhere else for my vacation in May because of the fire...and I switched to the Palma Real.

Any idea how the rebuilding is going?

Wait- that would give me more time for Blackjack....
I think they only pull the sankie routine if the woman is alone, or appears to be without a partner. I don't think they really want to get themselves into an altercation with a pi**ed off, well fed american/canadian/brit :-)

From what I heard that they are going to reopen the Trapiche Restaurant this week. By June is should be ready, I heard that they modernized the restaurants. I am planning of going back there in July.

Mattm are you going there soon?

Let me know if you go before July.
Thanks

Hi, could you please help me with the following questions?
I'm going to Bavaro Princess, as the Platinum guest in December.

1 Could you please describe how the check in happens with the Platinum package. My friends and me arrive different days and would like to co-ordinate the meeting place in advance.

2 Also, could please advise me advise me what would be the best restaraunts at the sister properties that are allowed for the Platinum package guests.

3 I heard that there is an e-mail for the Platinum guests where you could send the requests in advance. What is that e-mail address??

4 Do they have the Wi-FI internet? Could I bring my laptop there?

Any suggestions are really appreciated!. Thank you very much!
I am new to this Forum, have to figure out how it works.

My e-mail address is: sdel65@hotmail.com.

Thank you very much!!

Check in at the Platinum Suites is done at a separete lobby/lounge area in the Platinum section. When your bus/cab driver drops you off at the main bavaro Princess lobby you tell the bellman you are a Platinum guest and they have transportaion for you to the Platinum lounge.(like golf carts)
Once you arrive there they check you in(quick because there are no line ups!)and take your luggage to your room. All the Platinum suites are very close to the beach so everyone is within a couple minute walk(if that) to the lounge/check in area. The lounge has tables chairs, couches ,bar service, cold food and drinks, a great place to meet up with your friends.

There are 2 computers for Platinum guests only in the loung area, all free. I never saw WIFI or anyone with a lap top although, we never had a problem getting on a computer.

Since you have access to all the restaurants, the best choices are up to you.
Go ahead and try them all. You also a dinner each week of your stay at Licey which is an al a carte non Platinum members pay a fee for.

I know there is a list of email contacts, maybe someone could post the link..

That is the main email address, I'm sure they can give you the Platinum suites info.
Enjoy, it's a beautiful resort!
