Booked RPDC Again

cdd · 08-16-2008

Ok I know it's early but Funjet had a daydeal special for Mexico, So took advantage of it and booked the Royal Playa Del Carmen for the 3rd time. We will be there Feb. 8-15th 2009!!
Any chance of a upgrade for repeat customer?
We always book the royal junior oceanview, and have never been disappointed!

Almost impossible to get an upgrade without paying for it, but even more impossible for that to happen during high season. Feb. is SO busy, and the RPDC tends to overbook their rooms (especially oceanfront) so having an oceanfront room available to upgrade upon arrival to even if you WERE willing to pay would be a tough deal, let alone the ability to upgrade free of charge.

Yaay for you! We'll be there for the second time January 6th through 20th. We'll try not to dry out their tequila stock for ya

Just got back and can't wait for a return trip. What is the groups opinion of the best time to be in playa?

Me and my soon to be wife will be there for our honeymoon Jan. 4-10. Is this typically a very busy time?

We booked our honeymoon at the RPDC.(Nov. 9-16,08) As much as we looked at all other resorts, we felt this was the best option.
Never been to this part of Mexico before.

Nov. 9th is the day we depart. We'll try to leave the place the way we found it for you. Though clearly minus a good few beers and bottles of tequilla!

Just leave me at least one bottle of tequila.

We too will be at the RPDC for our third time the first week in February. We have booked a Royal Junior Ocean View room as opposed to Ocean Front as last year we had the ocean front but found we just didn't spend enough time in our room to really enjoy it. My main reason for posting though is that we received a call from our travel agencey letting us know that RPDC has changed their policy in that people who book RJOV rooms will no longer be able to use the Royal Chef's Plate restaurant. Only those who book ocean front rooms and any other higher category of room will have access. Whatever! We didn't even eat there last year anyway. Anyone else heard about this?

Sukidog · 09-27-2008

No I haven't heard this either. Not really a deal breaker to us as well. There are other great rests. to eat at. Sounds kinda chincey if you ask me. I wonder it that goes for Club members as well. Hmmmmm....

Doesn't bother us either..... I don't like to make reservations anyway!
