Bonjour Arthur,
quelques infos pour toi au sujet des Iberostar.
I just got off the telephone with Miriam who works at the Iberostar Tucan/Quetsal - to my surprise the Hotel phone line was working - however Miriam said that the Iberostar Paraiso does not have a working telephone line nor do they have electricity. She says that there has been EXTREME damage caused to the entire coast-line - the Hurricane sat for hours in the area causing unbelievable destruction before moving on. Miriam says that there has thankfully been no deaths associated with this Hurricane ...... The area however will take months to recover from the effects of the Hurricane - and - Resorts will have to completely close for months for repair. Cozumel was hit HARD and according to Miriam they cannot communicate with anyone there so she does know as of yet how the Iberostar Cozumel faired - as it was they were closed due to construction from the July Hurricane. Iberostar Resort Destruction: Maya All of restaurants have been hit hard and very damaged - most rooms on the other hand are still in tact and not water damaged. Lindo Has taken the worst of the damage - ALL the rooms are destroyed as are ALL of the restaurants and a lot of flood damage. Paraiso Beach/DelMar DelMar side has taken the worst of the damage - all rooms damaged - Beach side has less damage to the rooms - ALL of the beach front restaurants are destroyed - the two front Buffet restaurants are open to serve the remaing guests from 8:00 a.m to 10:00 p.m. Tucan/Quetsel The Quetsel side took the worst of the damage and nothing is operational on this side. The Tucan is very damaged - however - the Buffet restaurant is operational for the remaining guests.
Overall for the area there is no drinkable water (other then bottled water) - only partial electricity and partial phone or cell-phone lines in use - the worst off is Cancun. There is NO accessibility into Cancun due to the extreme damage.

coucou
nous devions partir au lindo le 26 novembre j'attends aussi de savoir si l'hotel a subit beaucoup de dégats🙁
j'ai contacté mon agence mais vu que la ligne de téléphone vers l'hotel est coupée je dois attendre quelques jours pour en savoir un peu plus!!
si le voyage est annulé, je ne sais pas si il propose autre chose?
dommage j'étais si contente d'aller au lindo!
personne n'a de nouvelles?😕
toutie
Les Iberostar doivent ouvrir leurs portes le 4 novembre, avec quelques inconvénients, mais rien de majeur.
Il est bon de noter que ces hôtels ne sont pas détruits. Les structures ont subis des dommages mineurs, sauf les restaurants situés près de la plage.
Pour le Lindo, il sera ouvert le 4 novembre avec des dommages à certains restaurants, mais, pendant ces réparations (il sera complètement opérationnel le 29 novembre), les occupants auront un total accès au Maya.
Tout sera, à mon avis, très bien en janvier! 🙂

All-inclusive, yes... but let's not forget the human side! 🇩🇴✨ I just got back from the Dominican Republic, and one observation really sticks with me: a lot of vacationers forget how crucial tips are.
At all-inclusive resorts, base salaries are extremely low for 10- to 12-hour workdays. Tips aren’t just a little extra—they often make up half of these families’ income.
Personally, I always prepare an envelope with euro bills in different denominations before I leave (they exchange them easily on-site). Here’s my method: 🛏️ For housekeeping: I leave a bill on the pillow every morning since schedules rotate daily. 🍽️ For servers: I always sit at the same table. At the end of the trip, I give an envelope to each server who took care of us daily. 🎉 For entertainment: I set aside an envelope for the animator who put in the most effort and really touched me.
The package covers the hotel, but our tips help support the people who make our vacations magical. Don’t forget to budget for this in cash when you pack!

Hi, I’m new to this site. I think it’s great to be able to exchange thoughts about travel destinations.
I’d love to know if any of you have stayed at Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa in Miches.
I’d love to hear what you thought of it
Hi,
Do you have any feedback to share about this hotel in the 16th arrondissement in Paris? I’d also love to take a cooking workshop in Paris—any suggestions?

Tell me what you think about this hotel because I’ve been there five times now and I still love it..............
Hi,
For my husband's 50th birthday, we're going to Mombasa for 10 days and 8 nights in March 2026.
I found a hotel, the Kappa Club Crystal Bay Resort, and online reviews for this hotel recommend a guide named Omar. I contacted him via WhatsApp, and he's offering a 2-day, 1-night safari in Tsavo East, a "blue safari," and a Marafa Canyon day trip for 400 € per person.
I’m asking for help from people who’ve already done these excursions because I have no idea what these offers entail.
Thank you for any advice you can give me about this trip.

Hi there!
To help me decide 🤔
Any recommendations for boutique hotels in Koh Samui based on your experience? I’m also tempted by traditional bungalows with half-board.

Hi everyone, I’m writing here because I’m really torn—I want to go on a trip. A vacation? 10 to 12 days, maybe 14 days. Starting March 14th. I’m in a wheelchair but completely independent. I was thinking of going to Martinique, but apparently, the hotels aren’t all-inclusive, which might be a hassle. If you have any advice, that’d be great. Otherwise, I was considering Mexico—a long-time dream. At an all-inclusive hotel with accessibility on one level (since I’m independent but in a wheelchair). Do you know of any nice, budget-friendly hotels with activities in Mexico? Or Zanzibar is also an option for me, same idea.
Thanks in advance for your help! If you have any tips, that would be amazing so I can finally make up my mind and plan my trip without too much stress. I’m looking ahead so I have plenty of time. Feel free to ask questions if you’d like. Thanks for your feedback, have a great evening!

Hi everyone,
happy to be back on this site.
I’m tired of spending hours and hours searching for all-inclusive hotels for my first trip to Mexico to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary.
Can anyone recommend 5 or 6 hotel names that meet the following criteria? (I’m not too picky, lol)
1. All-inclusive
2. Adults-only
3. Beautiful beach and pool
4. Hotel for relaxing (no "factory hotels")
5. One-week stay in February 2026
6. A nice hotel (3 or 4 stars) but no need for an ultra-palace
Oh, and I almost forgot the main thing 😉: budget between 3500 € and 4000 € for two, including flights from Montreal-Mexico-Montreal.
Thanks to all of you for your recommendations! Adjou

Hello,
I’m looking into November (first, will it be warm enough for snorkeling in Sharm El Sheikh?) and especially for feedback on hotels. I’ve read that the clientele is mostly Italian or Russian. Are there any French-speaking hotels—or at least mixed ones? We’re a retired couple and are looking for a hotel around 1,000 € per week. We’ll be in Cairo beforehand and will take a domestic flight. Thanks in advance.

Hi! I’d like to go to Tunisia in September but I’m torn between Hammamet and Djerba. Could you give me some advice, please? Thanks
I'm looking for retirees who spend the winter in DJERBA and who can recommend decent hotels. Thanks!
Hi everyone,
We’re thinking of booking an "all-inclusive" trip so we don’t have to worry too much... for a week at the beginning of next September, but we’re torn between several destinations: Crete? Cyprus? Sicily? Sardinia? The only thing we’re really looking for is sunshine. Thanks in advance for any tips you can share!

Hi there,
I’m planning a stay at the Sian Kan in the Riviera Maya and was wondering if anyone’s been there recently. If so, are the location, welcome, services, and food still as excellent as they used to be? I’ve heard that since the train between Cancun and Tulum was built, things might have gone downhill.
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there, I’m a 43-year-old woman planning to travel solo in early March. I’m not really into "commercial resorts," but if I find a place that fits my criteria, I might be interested. To add to the info in the title, I’m open to various activities, but ideally, it’d include snorkeling, hiking, dance (every evening if possible!), group tours, etc. I’d love to meet people (not necessarily a man—just people in general!). I’m not necessarily aiming for the cheapest resort, but since it’s spring break week and everything’s already pricier, 5-star options are probably out of the question. Thanks!
Hello!
What a pleasure to be back on Voyage Forum!
We’ll be in Venice from March 20th to 24th, and I’m looking (for two couples) for a hotel close to St. Mark’s Square—my husband can’t walk long distances. For four nights with breakfast, our budget is around 1,400 € per couple. To avoid too much walking for him, I’d also prefer a hotel where we could potentially eat dinner in the evenings.
If anyone has any recommendations, thank you in advance to those who reply!
Hi there,
We’re planning a week-long trip to Iceland to see the Northern Lights. We’re looking at staying from March 22nd to 30th: will we still be able to see the Northern Lights, or is it too late in the season?
We found a deal on Voyage Privé that seems like a good price, with a hotel in Reykjavik. If we rent a car, are there any interesting sites we can visit during the day, since we’re tied to returning to Reykjavik every night—or else we’d lose our nights at the hotel!
Thanks so much for your advice!
Best regards,
marc

Hi there,
We’re heading to Argentina and Chile in February 2025. I’d love to know if it’s recommended to book accommodations (hotels, guesthouses, etc.) in advance, especially in Patagonia? Thanks for your tips!
Hi everyone,
I’d like to book 2 nights at a camp inside Etosha (Halali).
However, online, I’ve found two sites for making this reservation:
The first is the Etosha National Park site: https://etoshanationalpark.co.za
You can’t pay online there—you just submit a reservation request (enquiry).
The second is the NWR (Namibia Wildlife Resorts) site: https://www.nwr.com.na, where you *can* pay online.
Is the latter one reliable?
Thanks so much for your tips!

Bonjour nous arriverons dimanche 5 mai ( à partir de 16h25) à l'aéroport de Punta Cana pour profiter d'un séjour que mon amie à gagner à l’hôtel Gran Bahia Principe La Romana.
L'avion est offert par la compagnie aérienne, l'hôtel je pense par la chaine hôtelière, mais aujourd'hui je m’inquiète du transfert car aucune info et j'apprends que rien n'est prévu.
D’après ce que j'ai vu le dernier car expreso part de Punta Cana à 16h00
Y-a t'il d'autres moyens de transports collectif (guagua) qui puisse faire le trajet ou au moins nous avancer jusqu'à La Romana ou San Pedro de Marcoris et je pense qu'on finira le trajet en taxi.
Si c'est trop compliqué ça sera navette privée mais on est plus "lonely planet " que navette privée et hôtel tout inclus.
Merci pour les réponses

Bonjour à tous,
Ma femme, ma fille de 18 mois et moi allons passé nos vacances du 05 au 19 Août à Majorque et nous aimerions bien avoir des avis sur quel coin de l'île choisir pour séjourner. On pense prendre un "all inclusive" pour ne pas trop se tracasser la tête pour les repas etc.... On pense également louer une voiture pour visiter l'île en soirée...On fera quelques sorties en journée mais nous allons vraiment être en mode repos.
Merci d'avance pour vos conseils quels qu'ils soient.

je pars dans quelques jours pour l'Ile Maurice (au Sugar Beach à Flic en Flac) et j'aimerais avoir quelques infos pertinentes de la part de ceux d'entre-vous qui connaissent bien l'ïle et/ou ce coin "flic en Flac".
Voici mes questions principales (toute autre info utile étant bienvenue ! ):
Que faut-il absolument faire à Flic en Flac et environs proches ? Est-il de coutume de négocier les prix dans les boutiques ? Si oui, dans quelle proportion afin de ne pas se faire berner ? Est-il préférable de se fournir dans de petits centres commerciaux ou les petits marchands sont-ils fiables ? Comment faire la différence entre les artisants fabricants réellement des maquettes et les importations chinoises ?
A quoi doit-on faire attention en dehors du resort (voire dans le resort, car c'est souvent le coup de fusil chez eux ;) ) ?
D'avance merci pour vos réponses. MB
