mgbfv11m2001 Posted December 17, 2004 #1 Share Posted December 17, 2004 Here's some info I researched for my cruise next month. AI resorts that offer day passes in Playa...this is not the only out there, just the ones I've researched so far. Wyndam Viva Azteca and Viva Maya, $60pp all day and well into the night Riu hotels, $50pp 9-6; $70pp all day and into the night Adventura Palace (Pureto Ventura)$84pp all day and well into the night Not an AI day pass, but well worth mentioning Omni hotel (Puerto Ventura) free use of their facilities, just ask you spend $20pp on food/drink Any other info any one has on AI day passes please post.

TNtraveler Posted December 18, 2004 #2 Share Posted December 18, 2004 Omni at Puerto Aventuras allowed free day-use of pool/beach. They retained my driver's license until departure. Easy enough. There was no mention of minimum charges, though we spent $40 or so on snorkeling equipment, pool bar, et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgbfv11m2001 Posted December 19, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted December 19, 2004 Thats good information...I only mentioned that price because I received an email from the hotel manager that mentioned that price, since you spent $40, that would have met there request. Can you tell me your experience at the hotel and is the dolphin swim right next door? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bahia puller Posted December 27, 2004 #4 Share Posted December 27, 2004 Can you give me any contact web addresses for your AI day passes in Playa del Carmen or other info. Going there in January. Does the AI day pass include food and drink with pool priviledge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNtraveler Posted December 28, 2004 #5 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Can you tell me your experience at the hotel and is the dolphin swim right next door? Pool at PA Omni is beautiful, with adjoining bar. Beach is probably the best in the community, with sand, palapas and palm trees. Snorkel from the shore on calm days (it's quite a swim out, but doable). Equipment rental on site for snorkeling. The Dolphin Discovery is easily walkable from the Omni -- not more than 1/4-mile, perhaps less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksapp101 Posted January 18, 2005 #6 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Do you have an e-mail address for contacting the Omni? How did you get there from the port of Calica? Any information would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNtraveler Posted January 18, 2005 #7 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Do you have an e-mail address for contacting the Omni? http://www.omnihotels.com/hotels/default.asp?topic=bridge&h_id=47 Click on 'Contact Us' at top of page. How did you get there from the port of Calica? We rented a car at the pier from Executive: http://www.executive.com.mx/ The Calica location is not on their website. Email Jaime at reservas@executive.com.mx for info and rates. Plenty of taxis are also available at the pier. Puerto Aventuras is about 8-10 miles South of Calica. The advantage of the car was that we were able to drive first to PdC and shop, then south to the Omni for beaching. Also wandered to Akumal to view pretty beach villas. All for one transporation price ($45 including $0 deductible insurance in October). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
let'ssailaway Posted January 28, 2005 #8 Share Posted January 28, 2005 How do we obtain these day passes for the resorts? Do we have to reserve them, or can we just go to the resort and request a pass and pay for it there? I have stayed at all-inclusive resorts before, but this is my first cruise and would just like to go and visit in case I missed out this year! Thanks:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNtraveler Posted February 13, 2005 #9 Share Posted February 13, 2005 How do we obtain these day passes for the resorts? In the case of the Omni at Puerto Aventuras, we had emailed ahead to confirm availability. Upon arrival, we visited the front desk of the hotel, where we presented a copy of the hotel's positive response to our email. We were simply asked to leave a driver's license for ID, which we picked up upon departure. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
