We had our hearts set on Vieques, specifically The Martineau Bay because we found out that they were being taken over by Starwood and converted to a W Hotel Retreat & Spa. Unfortunately, they are behind schedule and are now anticipating the renovation to be completed in Dec 2008 or early 2009 so that fell apart. We then looked at The Inn on the Blue Horizon which is awesome but they only have 10 rooms and we don't want our guests staying at a bunch of different places. We also looked at Hix Island House and Bravo Beach and weren't confident in their service and quality b/c of mixed reviews.

 

As for mainland P.R. - we looked at

El Convento

Ritz Carlton

Normandie

El Conquistator

Hotel El San Juan

Copamarina

Villa Montana

Gran Melia

 

None of them were really a good fit for a number of reasons including the fact that San Juan is a port city and many of the resorts are not that private on the beach meaning you can see a lot of lights at night and it is pretty developed. Also we are not big partiers and prefer a more laid back luxurious environment. So many of the resorts have such mixed reviews. Over all, the main reason is that our date (9/5/0cool.gif is not negotiable and it is hurricane season - we are really worried about that and the stress of planning an outdoor event during the most volatile weather season down there.

 

I am still worried about Hawaii b/c it is so far but the place is such a good fit and really has all the qualities we were looking for so we are going to suck up the distance.

 

If you have any specific questions about any one of them, PM me!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
