Hello Rikki,

Nice to read a positive message about the resort, there appears to be lots of negativity on this forum about this resort and the rental rates in particular! We agree with you on the rental rates, we need to get people through the doors and recommending the resort to othe people before the rental rates can be maximised. We will also be there in late June (22nd to 28th) and are still hopeful of staying there if only for a couple of days towards the end of our stay.

Given that the doors will only be opening on 1st July at the earliest this would seem logical.

We have also signed a 3 year draft rental agreement. Our lawyer is a relative of a friend from home

The resort is moving along very well. The townhouses are virtually completed and landscaping of that area was starting while we were there. The apartments, although not as advanced, are also nearing completion and should be ready by the end of June. We were very impressed with the outdoor pool area and the clubhouse. The pool integrates into the clubhouse balcony area via a large set of curving steps. The clubhouse itself looks huge and I believe will be a major selling point for the resort, differentiating it from other "similar developments". We will be back in late June by which time we will hopefully see a completed development - unfortunately it doesn't look like we will be staying there.

Hopefully meet up with you at some stage in the future

Regards
Rikki
