James,

You made a couple of comments regarding these resorts in your responses. I will be coming to Mexico in October (late) with my sister and friend and our travel agent has booked us a package with reservations at an all inclusive resorts. You mentioned malaria and a recommendation to use safety wrist bracelets at these resorts. Am I missing something here? Are these resorts danger zones or reputed to be for 'un-safe' people?

Actually, someone else mentioned malaria. The bracelet thing was a joke that as long as you wear your AI-ID, you'll be safe from holiday annoyances like insects.

Stayed at Riu Playacar July 20-23. Great place, good food, great pools and beach. Swim up bar tenders were the best. Entertainment was also very good and very international. I joked with my travel agent about wanting to stay another day and she told me that Riu Playacar is always booked up so I couldn't. I'm looking forward to my next trip.

Anyone heard anything on Club Bannanas in PDC? It's not on the beach but they have a beach club.

Is it better staying there rather than in the resort are?

Will be there for new years this year, Any input appreciated.

I'm pannicking somewhat at the prospect of staying at the Allegro Playacar, every comment is bad, and this holiday has cost us a fortune. Committed to stay there for Christmas, anyone got any tips on making the best of things?

Don't panic. Remember that it seems to be easier to complain than to praise. I believe a lot of people have had a great holiday at the Allegro. And you are not a prisoner. If you don't like it, just get in a taxi to Playa (5 minutes, about 4 usd) and use Allegro as your base. We have nice beaches here in Playa and lots of good restaurants.

Anyone know the telephone number to contact the Copacabana Resort at Xpu-Ha direct? Or a website location?
