Dear Dave,
Of course our jobs as
Reps look pretty
nice...and they
are...most of the
time. Visiting
friendly agents,
taking excited agents
on FAMs to our
properties, smiling at
trade shows...are
great. Sales calls in
the prairies in the
middle of blizzards,
missing sleeping in my
own bed, not seeing my
partner for sometimes
weeks at a time...not
so fun.

Dave NOT working
in Budapest |
And there finally
comes a time when we
all just need a
break...so, for the
last 2 weeks in July,
we wi'll be out of the
office on vacation in
Europe. We will be
our 2nd river cruise,
with good friends, and
we are SO looking
forward to it!
I'll include out-of-office contacts in my email response.

El
Cid Resorts - Riviera Maya - Full Exchange!
|
One of my favourite
things about the two El
Cid properties in the
Riviera Maya (Puerto
Morales) is that there
is FULL exchange for all
guests between the
properties. Whether the
guests are on our AI
plan or the upsell,
Platinum AI plan (with
lots of perks), guests
at either property have
access to all of the
pools, a-la-carte
restaurants and
activities.
Some of the few things
that do set the
properties apart are
that the
Hotel Marina El Cid Spa
and Beach Resort
features a huge exciting
pool with activities for
all ages of
guests. Guests at the
newer
Ventus at Marina El Cid
property features
several infinity pools,
including the
adults-only quiet pool
and hot tubs.
Things like the kids
club, teens club, the
marina, amazing Spa and
the Mercado de Dolores
are all shared
facilities for guests
staying at either
property. And remember,
these 2 properties are
only 20 minutes from the
Cancun airport!
