Dear
Dave,
No matter which wonderful Winter
holiday you celebrate, they are
quickly approaching. (Well, Hanukkah
has already started…)
I hope you are all safe and warm
and get your fill of holiday treats
and sappy movies.
Definitely time for us to break out
our childhood Christmas stockings.
|
Even with our 2nd
Covid holiday season underway, I
hope we can all continue to enjoy
the people and activities that are
really important to us. At least
with vaccines readily available, we
can get closer to the people we
love.
|
Stay
safe and strong.
Sincerely,
Dave
Emery

I’m happy to announce the official
grand opening of the Ventus Ha’ at
Marina El Cid Spa & Beach
Resort. The Ventus Ha’ is the sister
property to the Marina El Cid Spa
and Beach Resort and the Ventus at
Marina El Cid Spa & Beach
Resort. This property has opened
right behind the Ventus
property. Here are some of my
favourite things about this brand
new property:
|
|
Close to the CUN airport – The
Ventus Ha’ is right behind the
Ventus property and thus only 20
minutes from the Cancun airport in
Puerto Morales. |
|
Full Exchange – Guests at the Ventus
Ha’ have full access to the Marina
El Cid and Ventus properties.
|
|
2 More Restaurants – 2
additional restaurants at the Ventus
Ha’ are open to guests at all 3
properties. |
|
Platinum Service – Like the Marina
El Cid and Ventus properties, the
Ventus Ha’ offers the upsell
Platinum Service. This includes
special Platinum lounge access,
butler service, aromatherapy and
guaranteed sunset view rooms.
|
|
Unique vibe - offers an approach to
nature, creating an intimate
atmosphere of beauty, wellness, and
wellbeing with an inspired blend of
luxury and comfort |

|
A classic gourmet restaurant with a
Moroccan-style atmosphere evoking
the essence of the film "Casa
Blanca". This iconic restaurant is
included for our AI guests and
requires reservations and “formal
Casual” attire.
You can find more information about
the Krystal Ixtapa, including a fact
sheet and link to a short video

Of
course some of your clients will be
looking for some
“adventure travel”
opportunities. They may be looking
to connect with nature, explore
untouched regions or learn
first-hand about ancient
cultures. Any of these types of
tours could provide
once-in-a-lifetime memories.
