the pool grill and area was wiped out by the last storm. They were working on it all week and Leo said it should be up and running within another week. by the 8th, it should be good.
most of the staff said it needed a facelift anyway. they are making it larger...should be good.

We were at the resort and sitting in the outside lunch buffet when the storm was happening. Had alot of rain and wind. They discovered the damage and shut that area down the next day. Just the palapa was damaged, none of the other equipment in the area sustained damage. They took 2 days taking down the old palapa and were rebuilding it. They were also making the area a little big bigger. The workers seemed to be enjoying the view from on top as they were taking the old palapa down piece by piece. :)

Does anyone know the status of the repairs for the pool bar? Are the renovations finished? We will be there in 8 days.

Can't wait to be there sunning by the pool!

They did an amazing job- 1 week start to finish with a new roof, new electrical, new concrete supports and support posts. They actually made the area bigger by a few feet.
