    The service overall was disappointing. On multiple occasions, we had to wait a long time to receive service, and some staff members appeared uninterested in assisting guests. There was also no service at the beach, which meant I had to return to the property every time I needed something. The food was poor in quality. During lunch, my partner noticed a fly on some of the dishes, which was concerning. The worst part was instead of replacing the whole dish, they just removed the fly. Furthermore, the kitchen area was open, allowing insects and birds to freely surround the food, which made it unappealing. The variety and taste of the meals were far below what I expected. The steak served was especially difficult to chew and quite tough, which was very disappointing. and I found it difficult to enjoy most of the meals provided. Despite the resort being advertised as all-inclusive, we were charged extra for drinks such as mezcal and certain wines. Only the house wine was included, which felt misleading. This restriction greatly reduced the value of the all-inclusive package. There were no events or entertainment throughout our stay, which made the resort feel quite dull. Without any fun activities or engaging programs, the overall atmosphere was boring and lacked excitement. On the final day at check out, we asked couple of employees at front desk including supervisor named Lorenzo to have someone bring our luggage to the lobby, however no one seemed to care about bringing our luggage to the transport on time, which caused us a lot of stress as we feared missing our flight . This lack of attention to such an important matter was extremely frustrating. Given these issues, we were disappointed with my stay. I had hoped for a much more relaxing and enjoyable experience, especially considering the reputation of this resort. I wanted to share this feedback in the hope that it can lead to improvements for future guests.

    Great video MJ. Please tell me this. I have knee issues and going up and down stairs is a problem with me. Does this resort have facilities in place (elevators, ramps, golf carts etc) to help me get everywhere I might want to go? (ie: from room to restaurants, beach, pool etc..) Thanks so much, Steve S.

    • @MJSaysHello
      @MJSaysHello 3 месяца назад

      Hi Steven! Thank you so much for watching and for joining the channel - it's lovely to have you here! I wanted to address your question as thoroughly as possible. There are elevators in the main building, which you can use to access areas like the lobby, the Excellence Club, Dommo restaurant, the spa, and the club. The rooms are not directly connected to the main check-in building, so you’ll need to walk to reach them. My room was on the ground floor, so I didn’t personally need to use the elevators to access higher floors. The main walking you'll do is going between your room and places like the restaurants, lobby bar, theater, beach, and pool. I didn't notice any guests using golf carts to get around, so I’m not sure if they offer that option for guests who might need it. However, you will likely have to walk a little, especially during the first few days as you familiarize yourself with the property. If you do decide to visit, I would recommend planning your daily activities ahead of time. Once you leave your room, most amenities are conveniently close to each other. The pool is near the beach, and the restaurants are nearby too. As long as you’re not returning to your room frequently, I think you’ll find it manageable, though this does depend on which part of the property you're staying in - whether it's Finest or Excellence Club. For me, the longest walk was heading to the lobby in the evenings, but it wasn't too difficult. Given your knee concerns, I’d suggest reaching out to the hotel directly or checking their website to see if they offer any specific accommodations to make your stay more comfortable. I hope this helps! Wishing you a beautiful day.

    If you can just leave whenever their expectations become too high, then women have LESS negociation power, it's just that simple. They are MAD that you have other options because it DESTROYS their ability to impose their high expectations. If they say "Take ir or leave it", now they know you can actually leave. Despite all the hypocrit shaming on the "control over women" and "dependancy seeking", the real reason they're shaming is to contain this phenomenon which makes them lose some serious ground in the power-struggle dynamics of the dating market.

I hear that less than 50% of Americans have a passport and no paid vacations. And drink directly from bottles. Savages! Latinas for me and that's why I've been living in Latin America for 44 years now. Latinas understand the difference between men and women and don't want to be considered equal.

    This is the most non-biased video on Passport Bros. I've seen. And before anyone asks, yes, I'm in solidarity with the movement. Most of the men on my father's side are married to foreign women and have decades of success. Needless to say, I'm joining my patriarchs. Though I find it strange that you would include a guy shaming Passport Bros. and not provide a counter-argument. He says Passport Bros. complain that western women's standards are too high and they just want money but then go overseas to find women who also want money. This is a simplified and dumbed down claim. Especially, it's a strawman fallacy that doesn't address the nuance. When Passport Bros. say western women have standards that are unreasonable and wanting a man's money; these are women who claim to want gender equality. They work and make money on their own. But the moment a man is involved, they expect us to be traditional while they can be modern or traditional whenever it benefits them. This code-switching most western women do is frustrating and repulsive to men. In many of the countries Passport Bros. frequent, the women are more consistently feminine. Meaning he stays in his gender roll as protecter/provider & leader. While she stays in her gender role as the submissive supporter & his inspiration. In addition to that, more and more women admitted to divorcing their husbands when they've done nothing wrong. This is where the criticisms from the Passport Bros. originated.

    12:55 This exact situation unfolded with a former friend of mine in Los Angeles. I had warned him about his mail order bride, but, upset and unaware, he made a foolish threat, prompting me to end the friendship. True to form, three years later, his mail order bride wife divorced him and brought her boyfriend from Mexico. Fortunately my buddy was broke and lost nothing in the divorce. So it was actually a win for him too 😅😅😅 cause he can't catch women with his charisma and security guard future. 😅😅

    I knew from day one that this movement was going to go left. The disingenuousness lies in one critical fundamental that's being left out of the conversation constantly and that is women the world over no matter how pretty they are no matter where they come from all operate on the same level as far as looking for a man who is going to be able to provide them with security and resources. But hey let's just keep on pretending as a woman from other countries don't also act the role so that they can secure the guy just like American women do. It's no different. They're just a little prettier and they have accents.

      @GBU61 8 месяцев назад

      The media is making a big deal about this but if you stop to read the details, many of these men are in the wrong place dealing with the wrong people. Medellin gets a bad rap, but in many cases these men are getting prostitutes, from bad areas. Then they get set up, robbed and/or drugged. For those who go for the correct reasons and stay in good areas, these type of experiences are on par with anywhere else in the world.

    • @DigitalWraith
      @DigitalWraith 8 месяцев назад

    I disagree with the constant use of the term Third World countries. Having seen the cities such as Bangkok and Jakarta as an example, the shopping malls and transport system is actually better than in the countries that you refer to as First World. Our western countries have in many cases stagnated whilst many of the countries which were referred to as Third World have gone ahead in leaps and bounds.

    • @MJSaysHello
      @MJSaysHello 10 месяцев назад

      Hello, yes, the door features slats, but they're arranged at an angle in the design rather than being flat and facing forward. This configuration provides a bit more privacy, although not as much as you would have with a solid door. If you pause the video at 1:13, you'll notice the angle of the slats and the spacing between them. This allows some visibility, as you can see the light fixture outside the door when you're in the bathroom. It's worth mentioning that there's no tinted glass or any other material on the door that completely obscures the view of a person inside (as far as I can remember). I hope this helps!
