Been to TTR a few times and I wouldn't consider going there for 14 days. I wouldn't want to pace down slow enough to pull off 14 days. Hell, I have a hard enough time surviving 7. TTR is a party. If you're doing it right, you're sprinting it, not marathoning. I would absolutely be booking some time at Desire if I was there for 14 days.
We started at 7 days, first day is travel as so is the last so really we enjoyed 5 full days. Then we started to expand the days to 10, then 12, last year 14 and this year 13. Like they said before the vibe does change. But then again it's nice to meet new people.
We have booked for our 4th trip for May, do 14 nights every trip, but what we did last year was we booked a nice little boutique hotel in playa del Carmel for a couple of nights didn't cost too much and bus fare there was a few dollars each, some nice restaurants and beach bars and only 10 dollars for massage on the beach , was a nice little break away from the party, gave us a little time for just the two of us and time to catch our breaths ready for round two of the amazing party that is TTR, We agree with most 2 weeks full on partying takes its toll and this was a nice way to break it up without costing a fortune. Would love to try Desire but just can't warrant the price when already paid for Temptation.
I have been to Temptation twice, both times for 7 nights. My next trip is 8 nights, but I am pretty sure that is my max. By the end I feel pretty beat, and the constant partying starts to get to me. (the music becomes unpleasant after the 1000 time). I know the solution is to just go to the quiet pool or the beach and have a relax day. But that is easier said than done. Sometimes your new friends won’t let you relax, or if you are like me, the wife wants to party more at the end of the week, because she knows it will soon be over. Getting on the return flight is funny because everyone looks tan, rested and refreshed, but my wife and I look like we just went through a war. In the future I think I will be doing the Temptation thing for 6 days, and then Desire for 2-3. I think that would be a nice addition at the end of the spring break part of the vacation. If you can afford it, I think it is a great idea to make the switch.
I think 9 or 10 days is the sweet spot unless you have the self control to have a few down days mixed in, trips into town, over to the island etc. Sadly I (Andrew) have never really been accused of having much self control. I think 14 days might do me in lol
thats totally your call!! we have been going for several years, and have no Desire for anything but TTR...but have many friends that go several days to both...TTR is like a "Spring Break" for adults lots of dancing and partying.....lol~~~ and the other (s) are a little more R&R geared toward more couples and such...all of them are nice places to be...xoxo good luck on your choice...you will have a great time, no matter where you go we always go for 2 weeks in jan and one week in June
13days is gonna kill me this year. Thinking of cutting it back to 10 days. I need rest days when I get home.
We been 10 day's last 5 trips and we loved it, spend last 4 day's at Desire pearl and was great, if we were u guy's I would definitely try it,then u would know first hand see how it is,gotta try it,
