    We just got back on 3/14 from a quick vacation at Temptation and were really thankful for the information we had ahead of time from Cancuncare so we didn’t have to feel like such “newbies” . We wanted to update some of the things we saw:


    -there are no towel cards, you sign for them each day. If you don’t return them that evening you have to bring them to the front desk since your towel voucher (or whatever you call it) is sent there after the towel service closes for the day


    -No reservations were required for Bellavista or Margarita's/Tex-Mex & dress code was casual from what we saw. Service and food quality were exceptional at Bellavista


    -reservations for the Asian & Italian restaurants were taken at Bellavista at 10am. There was always a line there before 10 & the reservations for that day filled quickly, so I’d book ahead of time or get there early


    - the best sun at the sexy pool was on the beach side of the pool. I got up about 6:15 each day and got two chairs no problem—just throw a couple t-shirts on them or something (or just sleep in them like our Boston friends did). Almost all of the sexy pool chairs were taken by 7.



    -some beach chairs seemed available most of the time


    -theme nights while we were there were Thursday-- lingerie night; Friday—white night; Saturday – pool party; Sunday – dare to be tempted


    -lingerie night was anything goes for clothing & not confined to any specific area, very fun & went on to the early morning


    -we didn’t go out to any of the area clubs at night & thought we’d be alone at the resort but it didn’t seem like anyone left! If you’re cheap like us & don’t want to pay for drinks when you stay at an all-inclusive, you’ll have plenty of people to party with at night


    -the “adult” behavior in public was mostly exhibitionist, just people showing extra skin, cheeks or nipples. There wasn’t near enough hard-core groping going on if you ask us, but we were expecting something a little different.


    -Margarita’s has great chicken tacos for lunch


    -quiet pool seemed the coldest & the hot tubs in the pool weren’t hot, but we had a Jacuzzi room so we didn’t care


    -we missed meeting with a concierge because we checked in so late, & be aware that the front desk doesn’t seem to volunteer a lot of information at check in like where to eat, etc. They’re very helpful, however, you just have to ask about stuff


    -the public restrooms on the resort were the nicest in Mexico

    Nobody was swimming during the party, but it was cooler that night so maybe if it were warmer...
