    You mean the one just posted? Looks like maybe Premier bar replacement? Although I thought the old one was still there (maybe the need a 2nd one)?

    Yeah, I was looking at the one just posted, and I didn't look at it real good. With closer inspection, I think it's actually a bar at the opposite end of the area in question, and it's just another bar.

    Maybe a 2nd Premier Bar (there are times when more than one would be good), or possibly towel pickup area?

    Yeah the premier bar is definitely still there. They were redoing the roof. But otherwise the same as it was pre closure.

    The old towel pick up area w
    as replaced with the new decking. It appears like that area will be seating now for the larger sexy pool. So maybe. I didn't take a close look at the end of the pool near the 5000 block.

    We are in the UK at the moment. 20 hrs travel, 2 hrs sleep in 36, and +6 hrs time difference. I may be rambling, and may or may not have partaken in my favourite English beers.

    But as for the take on less activity, there are two options. Either they have given up and don't give a shit any more or....

    They know they have achieved (or easily can achieve) their objectives. They know the number of people booked for the first few weeks and are already confident enough rooms are finished to accommodate those that need them in the right areas. No need to rush to finish extra rooms that will go unoccupied. Finished rooms on the outskirts or up above that are empty are no bonus for those staying in those that are finished in the center or lower.

    My guess is they know the pools will be done, sufficient restaurants, a great place to hang out at night. If it were me, I might be breathing a huge sigh of relief that the targets I had worked so hard for over the last 10 months were now in the bag. Imho the soft opening might well be a little harder than most people thought.

    A little too early for the M&C champagne glasses to be clinking, and people will always complain no matter what. But personally I think "they got it".

    Yep I was always thinking it was going to be a bit of a "Hard opening" than a soft one. Just seems opposite of the Temptation way. ;)

    Besides, wasn't everyone saying if the bar and pool are open who cares about the rest? :)

    I totally agree with you Steve I think they got it they always said a soft opening and all the people have a choice to go when they want. They have to accept it or wait till completion but let's all be positive and be excited about Temptations positivity and smiles keep you looking young and it's great Karma
