Well we booked but it wasn't RIU Place or Secrets. We went with this new resort scheduled to open in December 2005 10 minutes from PDC.

Our TA threw a bone to us with the intro pricing and my CFO (better known as my wife) ate it up.

Apparently it's close to the Iberostar Tucan.

Only time will tell if theis was the right move or not.

I looked on the map in the Signature Vacations book for 2006/2007 and it shows it as being located between Secrets Capri & Sandos Caracol. Looks like a great resort 400 rooms, 1 buffet and 3 a la cartes, 2 bars, kids and teens club, deluxe rooms, oceanfront rooms and junior suites with jucuzzi's on the balconies (way cool).

Hi all! Was @ Secrets Capri, and from my understanding, it is in fact 2 down, and next to Club El Manderin. Not exactly Porto Morales, but a beautiful private beach none the less! SC was 2nd to none IMO but damn its gotten crazy expensive!!!! You know they dont require wristbands....and it is next door!!! Best food @ an AI hands down. Will be excited to hear about GGE, we will be @ SC in the fall, so Ill see whats up over there. Im sure youll have a blast, write a review so we all know!! All the Best!!!!
