We were in the elegance club, in the ocean view room and it was in the hallway as soon as you walk in the door, on your right hand side. It looks like the regular light switch. I'm not sure where it would be in the regular rooms. But it was convienient to know cause we were getting a little bit frusterated.

As for the power outages, the whole room is on a motion sensor. If nothing moves for a set amount of time everything turns off. There is a switch by the door that turns the motion sensor off. It took us a couple days to figure that out!

My husband and I got married at the Elegance on January 14th. We only had 8 people come with us so we didnt feel the need to go all out with special requests. We got the base package, had our dinner at the steakhouse, used the hotels photographer and the brightlights videographer. No extras. Simple. Quick. Perfect. We dont have any complaints. The flowers that I chose were white. They werent wilted at all. My sister did my hair and took a flower out of the bouquet. That one was wilted by the end of the night but it was very hot that day. As for the hotel. Perfect. We want to go back for our first anniversary. We went to the Mayan Riviera a couple years ago and this hotel far exceeded my expectations. We ate at the buffet every morning for breakfast and lunch. The food was really good. I was always full after eating (unlike Mexico, just kinda picked at what looked edible.) The steakhouse was really good. We went there three times. So was 9 doors, just awkward sitting at a table where you dont know anyone ( we arent the type to start a conversation, very reserved ) We upgraded to the Elegance Club, I would do it again in a heart beat. The view of the ocean we got was worth the upgrade in itself. We didnt use the butler but everything else was amazing. All in all, I wouldnt worry one bit. There is always someone who finds the trip unpleasant. Even in our group. My sister and brother in law are more into the party scene then us so I dont think they enjoyed it as much as its not too much of a party hotel. My mom has a hard time with the heat so she didnt enjoy it as much as she would have liked. But everyone else seemed to enjoyed themselves. It is by far the nicest, cleanest hotel we have ever been too.

I am a January 14, 2011 Elegance bride. How many days before your wedding's are you arriving at the resort? The wedding will be on a Friday, and the flights will either be on the Tuesday or the Thursday before the wedding ( the flights havent been released yet ) I was wondering if they came in on the Thursday ( day before the wedding ) if we would be rushed?

I was wondering the same thing, We are getting married on Jan 14, 2011. There is only going to be 8 people coming with us so it makes the most sense to have the dinner there. Congrats!
