Overall I would rate the hotel with an A+ and the actual event with a C+. I feel pretty confident that Jason is going to be doing a lot of work in the coming year to fix a lot of things. So if you are considering this for next year, I would say go, as it will be a better event. We will not go to another one if it is at the same place because we would like a variety of venues. We say that even though they are offering this year’s attendees a 20% discount on next year’s event.
On a personal note. We met a lot of really nice people, mainly at Bar Su and just visiting in the lobby and pool areas. It was great to be in a hotel like this and know that everyone there is in the lifestyle in one form or another. It was also educational to see so many people from so many areas in one place. We were taught dress to impress when going to an event and packed accordingly. The ladies for the most part, as should be expected, planned for this event and were very well dressed. The guys, well, it didn’t impress us to have a lady dressed to the nines next to a guy in Bermuda shorts, flip flops, and a Harley Davidson t-shirt, which I hate to say, was the majority of the guys. For us, the parties were a waste of time as the people we had met we could not find in the crowd, and if we had, the music was too loud to visit and get to know each other better. There was no play time for us this weekend. Don’t get us wrong, we did have a good time as we went down there with no expectations, which I strongly suggest that you do as well. If you go down with high expectations you are going to be disappointed. Well, that is our view as a single couple going down without knowing anyone in advance. I’m sure that the folks that went down as a group that knew others had a better experience than we did. Hell, from all the partying going on till the wee hours of the night, I know that they did! But then we are older and not as used to diving into a party like this.
