Hello All, I am a 39yr old single male and have been looking for a place to celebrate my 40th birthday on Dec 31. My group of friends are all couples and they all want to join me some place in the Carribean area for the celebration. One of them suggested that I take a look at Temptations. Initially, Temptation sounded great and right up our alley. We are a pretty wild group and party pretty damn hard...like we are still in college. However, I have read so many mixed reviews I don't know if I should look somewhere else. Some say this is a great place for a single male and there are many others that say stay away. I am not looking to score necessarily but I also don't want to be one of many other single guys staring at the only single woman there like she's the last chicken leg on the plate. I have read many reviews that this place is super friendly and the partying alone is worth it. I considered Hedonism but that sounds a little too much for the couples I would be celebrating with. Anyway, I know there have been many comments on this subject already as I have read them. That is what brought me to this post. Thanks ahead of time for any input.
I am also a single guy that went down there alone and had a great time and going back very soon. I say dont worry about it and go you gonna be there with some great friends and yall like to party at least you wont be by yourself as i was so i say go you will have a blast......
If you are looking to not spend a ton of money, than Temptation is probably your best bet, considering one of the other couples first suggested it. However, if money is no object and you want to have a true 5-star resort experience, check out some of the other properties in Cancun, they are spectacular. But if you care more about partying hard and want to do that contained within the resort itself, than Temptation is your choice.
Travelling to TTR for Halloween week by myself. this will be my 4x @ resort but first time without any of my friends. Reason i decided to come back is the adult spring break vide of the resort. If you & your friends party like your still in college this is the place for you. As long as you temper you "hook up" expectations for yourself you"ll have a really good time just going with the flow
Go, have fun, party, Hook up if its available, wake up n do it all over again!. 7 trips for me so far(4 single 3 with the gf) and they've all been fun n awesome!!!
I think the fact that you are traveling with a group there is no way you every be one of those guys standing off on the side srating creeply at anyone. I've always said that singles are the lubercant that allow the couples to relax and interact with each other. So if you have a fun group, and hook up with other from here, you may find that you all attract folks to join your fun and who knows a ffew single girls might come by looking for fun too! Go, enjoy and don't worry. The fact that you are asking means that you aren't the "creepy" guy! Oh. and being an end of December baby is a bitch ain't it! (12/29 myself) Jamie
as someone who has been to TTR many times alone I have always meet so many great people to party with. Going single can be a blast but again sometimes there won't be many single women. But if you don't care if you hook up with anyone like myself, you will have a blast. Also this resort is great to meet new people since everyone wants to party and and aren't afraid to strike up a conversation. Also if your going with friends that are couples that can be a plus since I have noticed when single women go they tend to hang with the couples to have a little security so that is a plus on your side. Some of the single men are a bit pushy with the single women and also the married ones so they tend to hang with the couples. Just go have a good time and like many of us single guys we tend to go back as often as we can. It is a hit or miss on the single women so just keep that in mind. Like I always say you won't know if you like it till you try and after my first time there I was hooked. Hell I would prefer to go single there anytime. The only thing that most single guys don't realize is that this isn't a place for a group of single men. Just check out the roll call for when you are going and get to know people before you get there and alll will be fine. Rob
Good info all. I will bounce around these forums and see what I come up with. Maybe I'll see you there. Thanks again.
