    Husband and I rarely travel without our children, but since my 40th birthday is coming up in September, we decided to take a trip for two. We are very excited and we have been reading everything we can find about the resort. Our dates are August 18 - 23.

    Does anyone have any tips for first timers. Any photos you'd like to share. Anyone going to be there at the same time?

    Welcome to the Board Deb!

    You've picked a fantastic place for a trip on your own without the kids. :D

    As far as tips and tricks... check out the Temptation Resort Forum and look at the stickies at the top. There are lots of good first timer information there. After reading that, if you still have questions, feel free to ask. We love talking about the place.

    Also check out the August Roll Call and post your name there and see who else will be there at the same time.

    Deb, we are also first timers from NJ and will be there from 8/16 - 8/23...

    I think we are in the same boat as the two of you, gathering information, taking notes, but still not exactly sure what to expect other than a good time...

    We are celebrating our 10 year anniversary while there....

    The one thing that i can tell you for sure is to try to get to know the entertainment staff and chat with everyone you meet. Whether it's at the bar while your waiting on a drink or when your in the pool or walking down the hallways. Get to know everyone. That will make your vacation that much more when you have new friends to hang with. We have been there about 25 times in about 8 years and I can say without a doubt that the biggest part of you fun will be had with people who your meeting for the first time.

    The other thing that I can tell you is treat the staff like they are people. Call them by their names. They all have name tags on. (Except the entertainment staff, cause where would T put that name tag. lol) Don't treat them like they are your survents.(sp) NOT THAT YOU WOULD. The staff at temptations will do everything they can to make your vacation the best they possibly can. Get to know them. Believe me, it will be well worth your time.

    We had a fabulous trip to TTR. It was wonderful hanging out with btmfdr. We've been home for 4 days and neither one of us can wipe the smiles off our faces. It is a trip that we hope to do again.
