Beautiful photos Denis!!! Thank you so much for sharing them. Is there a way to slow down the slideshow? I couldn't read the captions and look at the photos fast enough.

Thanks Barb! Same to you and Dee!

It seems that the culprits have now moved their "targets of choice" over to the Cupecoy area at night. Aside from the article listed on the other board, I received a letter from our resort that we should be extemely careful walking along the road in front of our place at night as there was a specific incident reported just recently when 2 people walking to the Atlantis in the evening w

Thanks sooo much Denis for your trip report. Very entertaining and I hope we'll get to see some of those pics too! Did you say that you saw JB fly in?

No questions...just happy that this interesting property may some day be restored. I would love to see it developed into what I can see in my mind's eye.

Hey Denis...is that why Santa never made it to my house last year??? I also would like to wish everyone wonderful holidays and may the festivities carry on until next year!

Both very funny! Thanks for the chuckles...

Thank you also Mr. Nauss for a refreshing and well written piece on this property. It is so sad to read this recap from someone who had firsthand knowledge of the property but at the same time, I feel you were lfortunate to have some good memories of the place as well as some souvenirs to cherish. We were on the island just a week ago but never got the chance to seek out the property. Now I

Thanks Philippe. Maybe we'll look into this.

Now, that's interesting! Do you pay monthly fees? I would assume not since you said you got it legally. If I only had the room, I would look into that as well! A 3 foot dish would fit OK but a 4 foot dish would be alittle distracting and take away too much room on the balcony.

From what I know, Elaine doesn't have Direct TV. I believe, because she was having problems getting good reception, she has SXM Cable like us.

Thanks Denis! The caesar salad at Sugar Cane is always so fresh! You can actually taste anchiovies in it even though you don't see them. I always get that instead of the fries.

I apologize now to those that already read this trip report on another board but I thought I'd post it here for those that frequent this site... We began our journey with Continental out of Newark. As always, the plane left on time, had individual monitors for viewing movies, listening to music, and playing games with touch screens. This was our first experience with this new system and i

For the sake of argument, I guess, I would NEVER park my blanket, chair, or kaboose in front of a group of restaurant owned chairs, no matter how long I was going to stay. To me this is not only rude but also I feel that they could as well be obstructing the beautiful view of the water of those who paid for a front row seat. I would equate this to group of people who paid for front row seats to

If you are staying at the Cliff, then being that high will afford you some protection but we were on the 6th floor of Rainbow next door and that did not stop the no see ums from hanging out on the balcony. This time though they were not really a bother and I wasn't bitten at all. Consider that I was about 5 floors lower than you. But to answer your question truthfully, unless you stay on

I just got back as well. I saw them spraying in our complex and we are on the Dutch side. The entire time we were there, I never saw 1 mosquito (day or night)but lots of no see ums and I did not use any repellant the entire 2 weeks.

If you have a digital camera or have the photos made into digital, you could easily order Christmas cards on-line through Shutterfly. By the time you got home the cards would probably be on their way to you in the mail.

And thanks Denis for that interesting info. And I agree...everything happens for a reason and so having his ship where it was was the best scenario for him! What an absolutely gorgeous sailing ship.

Actually Monday morning was the only noisy day. Yesterday there was hardly anything annoying at all. It was great... Today, nothing yet but we'll see...as I see it, eventually this too shall pass and all will be right with the world. The sooner they finish, the better. Everyone has been really nice too. I didn't expect that. All in all, it's going great and right now I have t

Hi Harriette...Unless someone else chimes in, I'll try to find out from Evelyn and Gail when I see them about the safe thing. I think you can walk to the Hollywood Casino easily. Make a left when you exit the airport and after you go over the bridge, a short distance past the Royal Palm, make a right when you see the signs for the Hollywood Casino and Pelican. That's Billy Folly Road

Hi Donna! Yes, I do love sitting on the balcony!!! It kind of reminds me of what one would see on a Greak Island...I wonder why... Just figured out how to run the dishwasher today...LMAO Here's another photo but it's quite large. This should bring back some memories: Unfortunately the blue and white colors look like pink and white... All they have to do is get rid of

Hi Georgia! Weather has been beautiful every day so far. Yesterday I took a ride to Grand Marche and stocked up the condo. Today we went to sign up for cable and the ride there was OK but the ride back was a little backed up....but ya know what....I don't care! I enjoyed people watching, it wasn't the end of the world, and the slower we went, the less we noticed the bumps in the r

Someone had recently posted that the Atlantis Casino had done away with the $10 match play but we were there a few days ago and they have a new system. The match play is not playable on the tables but if you go to the CS desk they will explain that the card is now usable on the slots but you don't have to put in $10 to get $10. You put your card in and the machine automatically credits you
