Awesome! I think it's great news! We were at Desire Cabo several times before the change to TTR. We've been to Desire Cancun and Hidden Beach. We've always said Desire Cabo was our FAVORITE. Steve, is it possible to start a Desire Cabo forum? You have a great site and huge following. It would be nice if we could keep it going.:sunny:
We were also booked for Desire week May 2-8. Doing weekend to weekend allows us to stay an night. I'll be looking into changing our reservation to May 5-13.
When we were there in Sept for the 3rd time, we decided to join the Premier Membership plan. This allowed us access during non-Desire weeks to stay for about $135/night during high season and about $100/night in the low season per couple for any length of stay totalling 175 nites during the next 15 yrs. I paid $4000 up front and payments for another $4000 within the next 2 yrs. Now getting to Cabo is easy and relatively cheap out of LA, so the math worked out since we like to travel for 7-10 days at a time 2-3 times a yr. Now that is all shot to @#$! since we prefer the Temptation format over the Desire. I directly asked about conversion at that time and was told they would not convert since Desire Cabo years back was not getting enough occupancy and it was taking people from Desire Cancun, thus the change to TTR Cabo. We do not want the constant party feel of Cancun TTR although some prefer it and that is fine. We are definately not prudish and would probably be fine with Desire but feel we are being ripped off when they only offer a 25% discount on rack rates at Desire with our membership, one can do better on travel package sites.
We went to Desire 2 times before the change to TTR and loved it. This year we went to both the Sep & Oct Desire weeks and had a great time again. As was mentioned Los Cabo TTR was not a great party place like Cancun is but that is what we like about it. That and it is eaiser for us to get to Los Cabo then Cancun so we will be making more trips to Desire now.
dave/jen we are kind of in the same boat on this one having been to cancun 6 or 7 times (and enjoying that chapter in our life i must add) we now love the ability to not feel as though we have to have a constant party 24/7 hoping that will not change with Desire if it does not change that aspect of it - im sure we will at the very least give a shot rob
We are stocked the only problem now is which one to go Desire cancun or Desire los cabos ok will do both. Lol Wait is it going to be full time Desire or just May to Oct and then Nov to Apr.
Even when it was a Desire property previously, it was far quieter that the Desire Riviera Maya location(the Desire concept is not a constant adult frat party 24/7 like the Temptation concept) Personally I don't think you will see much of a difference than from your last trip when it was a Temptation property - probably a little more flesh exposed around the pool and hot tub though :wink3:
