The jacuzzi off our room was huge and would be great for a party. Very clean and perfect temp. The downside was that it was pretty tricky to get into. The door going outside was about 16" wide and goes straight up into the jacuzzi steps. Our cost was minimal for the upgrade and I would say go for it. You can always ask for a move if you don't like it. It is not like the view from a balcony would be exceptional, and you can always ........................................ well you know what I mean

There are also some first floor jacuzzi rooms with the jacuzzi about 4' off the sidewalk. Another great party area, but definitely zero privacy.

Probably way easier to get an upgrade than to get money back that you spent on the upgrade.

BTW, you will love the teppanyaki style dinner at the Asian restaurant. The tables hold eight or so and great food and a great time. Don't set you hopes very high on Il Piacere as it is strictly buffet.

You will be glad to hear that Oscar never showed up while we were there.

The Mega store is very close. We bought a small cooler & Modelo Light for Annette as she had her fill of XX draft.

Brian, Tony, and Cesar may open up the games to a little more crazy if enough people push them. TVB could have been a little more crazy, however the 16" deep water on one end would be a little uncomfortable for most.

There are only around 16 chairs around the pool, and everyone must reserve them the night before. I went down at 6 am, and they all had something on them.

Angie took a group to Cabo Wabo one night. Not sure how many went along.

Chocolate night was pretty interesting, and I did not see cameras as I was expecting. We missed Lingerie night.

Looking forward to New Orleans next week. I am going to check my notes to make sure I get the things set up that you asked for.

I have been to both Cancun and Los Cabos, and have to say I loved Cabo more than Cancun. It had a much more romantic feel to it, the area was beautiful and the beaches and ocean much more appealing. I loved our day trips and the people...

The night life was more centered around the resort and not as much of the March break party atmosphere that you would find at Cancun.

You do not need to leave the resort in Cabos to enjoy your evenings, as the staff and guests make it an enjoyable resort both day and night...

If you want the party scean definately choose Cancun. You have daytime entertainment, the pool area rocks and is amazing but at night, except on Theme nights you really do have to leave the resort for the downtown clubs if you want some excitement. Great for the partiers and singles. The locals like to flirt!

If you are looking for something a little more intimate, with all the romance of a 5 star club and the fun of Temptations, Cabos is the way to go!

from what i recall on my previous trips to los cabos (pre t) is the exact same things you mention. there is certainly a different vibe in los cabos than cancun and i miss that los cabos vibe from my pre t days

...........while i love temptation cancun and will continue to go there its going to be really nice to return to los cabos and exeperience temptation there - we are so looking forward to it

t and i was just wating to do something a little bit different this time and i think we have found the perfect option

thanks
