CHAIRS AT GCP OR LACK THEREOF

I agree
So if I come back to the Crown I should pay all my money up front and then go to Wal Mart and buy a chair? Or I should be left to negotiate with the staff about where I can sit and hope when I run to the bathroom they don't take my stuff. Sounds like things there ere getting even worse than the last...

Just one Mexican Minute
It is a very well known fact , when you are told by someone in Mexico it will be a minute always ask " is that one Mexican minute" Truth be told the people there do not sweat the small stuff( or the big stuff for that matter ) they must think that tourists are crazy the way we worry and are always i...

I often wonder if I am staying at he same place .I always think of myself as a guest in Mexico and try to act accordingly.i know some people will say they've spent a lot of money and that gi...

Obvious
It is obvious you know so much about the resort, the owners, the mangement, the staff, that this kind of business and promotional sales ideas offend you and upset you... but this is just MY opinion... As I have said before I am entitled to my opinion its your right to disagree or agree as you see fi...

WOW
Just read the trip advisor report holy cow , well I would love to hear about how the "Regulars" faired , if they were subjected to these goings on the same as the rest of us? This sort of thing is common at the GCP and the unfortunate part is the management does nothing about it so as I said take ca...

Saving chairs
Warm in Winter As I said if you feel the need to sit together better get down early and reserve some chairs , despite what the "regulars" wish the fact is that the resort can't or will not police this and while in a perfect world we would all come down to a nice lounge and palapa people will get up ...
