    These are just a few of the additional perks that members(similar to a timeshare, but not the same) get at no cost.

    Much like many all inclusives, there is an upgraded alcohol package. But at Temptation you can't purchase this at check-in. It is only available to members and Referrals. However, the good thing is the normal selection of booze is way better then most all-inclusive hotels to begin with. It's still all name brand stuff like Captains, Sky, Bacardi, etc.

    The room service is included for everyone, but there is a $5 service/delivery fee

    The upstairs pool and bar are included if you are staying in the tower, or again a perk of membership.

    There is so much going on at TTR though, if it is your first trip you will hardly feel like you are missing anything or being treated like a 2nd tier guest. It's totally not like that there. Just some extras for people that have been going twice a year for 5+ years :)

    No refs, but at times security is checking things out. It is topless, but some people really try to push the rules to the limits (full nudity, pda, you name it). The yellow cards are a way to just slow some of that down.

    The regular rooms have a small coffee maker like in most hotels a 4 cup I believe if my memory serves me right I was a little intoxicated the entire time lol. And I was told that the tower rooms have a Nespresso machine but I never saw for my self

    I'm not the coffee drinker (Elle is) but a lot of people (including Elle) are happy with the new coffee bar. It has some specialty coffees and treats.

    Probably as good or better than any coffee you could make in your room. You could probably skip bringing coffee unless having coffee in your room before you make a public appearance is mandatory. In that case bring coffee, lots of coffee

    They have them. We just didn't bother with them as the coffee in the lobby was good and accessible.

    Bubbas, Yetis, etc.
    Or drink from the plastic bar cups.

    We are coffee snobs and drink imported and custom roasted beans from all over the World.
    We ordered room service American coffee each morning and it was acceptable enough.
    Order on tv or call but tv worked fine even the nighr before.
    We are early birds and had ut delivered each day at 7 or 8 am snd they were prompt.
    Also had juices and bread/rolls and fruit.
    Nice to nibble and lounge before workout or real breakfast.
    Well accept the one day where they must have cleaned the machine and not rinced it enough and we got a pot of vinegar tasting brown water...yuk...spit...scrub tongue on sidewalk...yuk!

    My wife had her Yeti and they filled it at the coffee bar in the lobby at times.
    They also have expresso, etc.

    Also the coffee at Seaflirt for breakfast is freshly ground an brewed and has a good flavor.
    I believe they told us it is only served there 7-11am.
    Try Seaflirt. Great American as well a delivious breakfasts all made to order and you can order as much as you like.
    Hint: if you do not lke sunny side up eggs ( runny yoke) be sure to tell them to cook hard or scramble.

    Pedialyte family pack in powder form and vitamins help if you take them at night or in the morning post partying phase. We take them on every trip, it helps.
