Hi Vanessa! I am getting married on Monday, June 17th - which is during your stay! Not sure where you are planning to say your vows, but we will be in the Tucan Gazebo if you want to check out a set up that day (although I am sure there will be plenty of other weddings over the weekend). PM me if you would like to meet up on the resort!

I have a travel agent handling my booking, but there are several of my guests who are members. At the end of the day it looks like I am going to have 4 rooms with a total of 9 people who are booked outside of my group but all staying at the resort. I was told that these rooms would not count towards my room or room night count AND that I would be charged a fee of $50 per person for each private function for anyone booked outside of the group. I am not sure if my travel agent was simply trying to scare me into making everyone book through her. I do not think I will need those 4 rooms to meet the 75 night level - just don't want to pay an extra fee for 9 people at multiple events!! Does anyone have any experience with this? I am a little afraid to ask my onsite coordinator now. I am thinking it might be better to just show up with the extra people... thoughts?
