Sorry this post was about the Aura... The last post I could not reply to...

I don't blame you one bit for being upset. Did you book directly with the hotel, or with another agency?

I booked through Orbitz, It is paid on full. I read up on the group Lifstyles, and they are the original people who started Hedonism.. Like I said, It's just not for me! I do not have any desire to go to a resort of this type.. now it looks like I am stuck in one. Guess, we will just go diving every day and go to town alot at night. It's just a real bummer and we spent alot of money.

As you should easily see I fully support your views on this and am far from done with the issue. I do thank you very, very much for posting your message, and can only say that I am rather disappointed with TA for deleting many of the posts re this issue. Most only took an opposing view to ours, and without opposition it's impossible to hold a useful debate. There were a few slanderous remarks but appoligies were issued re them.

I am far more disappointed with Wyndham on this and will make every effort I can to alert anyone thinking of staying at ANY of their Cozumel sections that they may be in for a surprise. My next post will be on Scubaboard linking them to this message since it has a lot of members who stay at various sections of the Wyndham.

Wouldn't Orbitz be partly responsible and give you a hotel change? I really don't understand that....I've traveled for many years and when the hotel was unacceptable, my tour company, usually Funjet moved me to a different hotel, even after we got there. I've probably had to change about 3 times in all the years of travel...but the fact is, they did it.

I would definitely put pressure on Orbitz.

It will be very interesting to watch the reaction here as well.

Cowgirl.....I may be completely ignorant here not being a tourist and never having used anything like Orbitz before........but is there no recourse thru them at all???.......it would seem to me that the property was misrepresented to you-----in your shoes, I would get a supervisor on the phone and see what they can do for you since they surely have access to many other places on the island.

I see that you are considering "braving it out" and if that happens MAYBE this new "feature" won't be discovered by the time you get there......let's hope.

Good luck--Betsy

OF......great minds.....hahhah.......Betsy

I would also contact your booking agency. You may have to elevate the discussion to several supervisors but I would be surprised if they cannot put you at another nice hotel
