One final note to say thanks for all the kind comments on our trip report.
I hope you enjoyed the photos as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Just 4 1/2 months until Cabo...

its this kind of post that made me book the hotel and the Playa vacation.


What do you feel about the daily entertainment? is it good or only so so?

Thanks again

We didn't really take advantage of the entertainment at the resort. THe evening entertainment mostly takes place in the lobby area and our impression was that it was primarily geared towards an older crowd. During the day, they have an activities team which organises things like water aerobics, volleyball games, bike tours of the town, etc.

Seems good to take a nap after dinner and then head to the city.

The main entertainment strip in Playa is 5th Avenue, which is located about 50 yards from the Royal's front entrance. "Heading to the city" will take you all of 45 seconds.

I laughed out loud reading about your trip! The Crown Royal incident floored me. Can't wait to get there on the 16th and take up where you left off. Thanks so much for the insight.
P.S. Where do the playa.info countdown images come from?

Going Back for More

19 days until we return to the Royal for another week in the sun. I promise another trip report, with plenty of photos, when we get back.
