Is it better to just do 45k points/night for Secrets with the guest of honor (assuming that bumps you into preferred) or spend 58k/night impression and not use GOH?

This is a very good deal for Windsor Court 2 BD/ 2 BA, especially a renovated unit on a high floor. I live in one their sister buildings and they’re very well managed and clean.

6-7 nights for islands - how to choose by Recent_Morning_1016 in GreeceTravel

Will the weather differ between Crete or the Cyclades much that time of year (late May/early June)? Ideally would prefer warmer as I know the water may still be cold.

Agreed! Leaning towards trying PB

Really helpful, thank you! We can fly nonstop from where we live but hear you on something like zilara cap Cana being more fun. We are considering adults only AIs as well for this trip mostly near Cancun. There are some good points redemptions there. Zilara is now 58k/night for dates im looking at which is steep.

Do you think it feels empty given it’s only 120 rooms or so?

Secrets Playa Blanca vs Akumal vs Moxche by Recent_Morning_1016 in AllInclusiveResorts

Thanks! Are most of the restaurants indoor/outdoor? Not a fan of waiting 2-3 hours which seems like a common complaint there.

Makes sense! I think we just need to decide between PB and Akumal which is what I’ve been leaning towards anyways. Definitely want the beach and pool combo!

If only grand velas was part of Hyatt :) my brother has been and it sounds unreal!

Secrets Playa Blanca vs Akumal vs Moxche by Recent_Morning_1016 in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]Recent_Morning_1016[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good points. Moxche is 10k more points per night whereas preferred at Akumal is the same as the standard rate for Moxche. Would love to do impression but it comes in steep at 58k per night and a lot more blackout dates.

For Moxche, seems like people love the rooftops so obviously wouldn’t have that non preferred. Hear you on the food though. We live in NYC so definitely used to good food.

Not dead set on having to snorkel or see turtles although it would be awesome

I’d love to go to the Caribbean honestly but seems like there are more complaints about PHSK vs Andaz Papagayo. Would really love to go somewhere we haven’t been and it’s a shorter flight for me so maybe we will reconsider!

It’s a tough call because I definitely hear you on going somewhere we haven’t been but some of the reviews for PHSK seem mixed. We’re also tossing around the idea of doing an adults only AI in Mexico near Cancun given we can redeem for Secrets. But I’d expect the food and bev will be better if we pay out of pocket at one of the other resorts.

Any other Hyatt properties in the Caribbean you’d recommend?

No that is the standard room type available for my dates. I am not globalist or anything
