Dear Dave,
Well Halloween has just passed. What
did you go as?
I was traveling this year, so much
less creative that usual, but here are
some of my favourites from years past.
Note
that as part of this month's
photo contest (below),
I'm asking entrants to submit their
favourite Halloween costume of theirs
(from this year or years past...)
Here are some of Sandy's favourite costumes of past years.
Happy
Selling as the sun season heats up
(and the weather cools down).

update)
|
There has been a lot of talk about the
condition of the beaches in the Riviera
Maya, some with a lot of seaweed. While
there have been days that we have had to
clean the beaches several times at the
Hotel Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Resort,
here are some recent pictures taken at
our beautiful beach.
In
addition, you can check out the Puerto
Morales beach Cam
HERE.
Don't miss this
great list of things that
your clients can do while they are
enjoying their stay at one of the 4 El
Cid properties in Mazatlan.

Honua Kai Resort &
Spa - 3 Bedroom - 3 Bath Suites
|
Let's face it, that the last thing
people want to do on holiday, is spend a
lot of time in the hotel/condo. Well,
that is, unless the condo is huge and
incredibly luxurious. Honua
Kai Resort & Spa was built from the
ground up to go beyond what your clients
would expect.
To begin
with, all of Honua Kai's accommodations
are suites - from a roomy Studio Suite
with approximately 595 sq. ft. to a
palatial 2,650 sq. ft. Specialty Suite.
Each suite features a private bathroom
for each bedroom and so many more
unexpected luxuries.
Remember
that for the spacious 3 bedroom
suites, you need to
special request them from our
tour operator partners or from Honua Kai
directly! You won't see them listed on
our partners online booking engines.
These large suites are perfect for 3
couples traveling together or and
extended family (max 8 people).
Here is a
summary of the sizes of the Honua Kai
suites:
