    Great video. My husband and I were lucky enough to go to VIM back in 2010. It was amazing. I am dreaming so hard of going back. Thank you for sharing your videos.

      How was it? My husband and I are going in June and we can’t wait. Did y’all use the hotels transport from the airport when y’all arrived? Did you have to wait all day?

    • @joeybaysinger2016

      @@amynowell4592 My wife Becky posted above also but pay a little more for private transfers and you will be much happier. The public transfers are a crap shoot as you never know what they'll do as they don't tell you if they are waiting on others or will make other stops!

    Love your video!, could you share a room number? Lower floor ? Higher floor ? We like to stay away from Loud equipment vents etc near it . We have requested building 5 deluxe jr category.
    Thanks Linda

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  3 года назад

      We were in building 5 first floor. I can’t remember the room number but it was at the end of the building closest to building 4. We really liked the location. It was a good and quiet room.

  • @amynowell4592
    @amynowell4592 2 года назад +1

    Hi! My husband and I are heading down there in June and wanted to ask if we should arrange for private transportation from the airport to the resort instead of using the resort’s transportation? The reason being is I’ve heard that if you arrive in the morning into Cancun, you have to wait most of the day for others to fly in before the hotel will take u to the resort. And we get in around 9am and we don’t want to waste that entire day waiting on others.

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  2 года назад +1

      We booked through a travel agent who set up our transfer. I HIGHLY recommend a private transfer. We are actually here for our second time right now and used Local Tours for our private transfer. It was $80 for both ways. We left the airport immediately and have our return transfer scheduled already. Last year we used amstar which was ok but we had to schedule our return transfer at their desk at the resort where they tried to upsell on all their excursions which was annoying.

    • @amynowell4592
      @amynowell4592 2 года назад

      So I should contact Local Tours and set up a private transfer with them?

    • @amynowell4592
      @amynowell4592 2 года назад

      Becky I don’t see a website for Local Tours. Is this something I have to do when we get down there? I’m not seeing any contact info for them but I see a ton of other companies

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  2 года назад +1

      Set it up before you go.

    We go in June and can't wait. Do they have any snorkeling gear there to use?

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  3 года назад

      They have some to rent at the Barrkuda Dive Center rental right by the main pool but I don’t know if there’s a cost to it (kayaks were free but required a refundable deposit). I know they do have snorkeling tours you can do from there as well.

      We stayed in the Junior Deluxe Suite in building 5 (cheapest room you can get)!! Room tour is toward the end of the video (I think I called it Deluxe Junior Suite….. right words just forget their order 😂

    What about tipping? How often and how much?

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  3 года назад

      Obviously that’s your personal choice, but I know they appreciate getting tips.
      We tipped the housekeeping (left on table or vanity) a few dollars morning and evening everyday since they can be a different person throughout the week. Left a dollar in the fridge on the days we needed that stocked (it’s a different person than housekeeping). Tipped a few bucks for every drink brought to us (usually all 4 of us would get one). Left a few bucks on the table for the buffet, tipped more at dinner, usually $20 for the four of us. And tipped room service when we got it ($2-5). I got $400 of ones which was really too many because sometimes we left $5s, $10s and $20s. I used probably $200 ones and $200 other denominations.

      No 😞 probably the one thing I would change! But the Emerald rooms have a gorgeous in room spa, someday we will get that upgrade 🤞🏼

    Do they have American beer?

    • @beckyjoey4916
      @beckyjoey4916  3 года назад +1

      Yes, some, but don’t ask me what. Pretty sure they have coors light and I know they have Dos Equis (I know that’s not American but I live in AZ so it’s popular here 🤣)

    • @joeybaysinger6053
      @joeybaysinger6053 3 года назад

    Does anyone know if they have pumps to blow up your own float available ?

    • @joeybaysinger6053
      @joeybaysinger6053 3 года назад

      If you take your float over to the pool activity booth near the center of the pool they will blow it up for you
