Oh dear sorry if ive given your cause for concern, I hope then that ive been told wrong information, let me know as the holiday village was my first choice for our wedding in the dom rep, we will be booking our wedding next thursday with first choice, when the tropical winter 07 brochure comes on sale, and at the moment are preparing to book cuba. Will you be having lots of guests at your wedding? we are planning on just us and our 3 kids who will be 15, 11 and 3. Michelle x

As of today we are going here 27th May 07.

We too were booked to go to the Kos Aqua Beach Club then changed to Fuerteventura. From the minute we changed we didn't really feel happy about our choice (it was the only thing within our price range). So when we got a letter informing us of things that weren't available and that we could change without admin charges we decided to do it. It's costing us about £500 more which we will find from somewhere lol.

We went to the Pegasos Palace this year and loved it, so if this place is half as good as there we'll be happy.

We went to the Dominican Republic 14 years ago for our honeymoon and have always wanted to go back but thought we would have to wait until our daughter (who's 10) was older.

The main thing that swung it for us was - IT'S BUILT !!!!!!! :yipee

sound like you are close to the action? is the work on time time? and will the place still be a building site if i went in december?

hi,
no im not there, but i wish i was as we dont go till next oct.
the http://www.dr1.com web site is based in the dominican, go onto the message board then to the north coast. it was the second topic down.
it sound like the work is going well, bit has slowed down due to a death (something to do with the contractor).
have a look at the web site and let me know what you think.

Well its on sale for 2nd December with First Choice and at a unbelievable price last night when I looked £399 (on the Eclipse Site) for two weeks :shock: lets hope its actually finished by the time folks get there. :roll:

(if I hadn't already booked Jamaica I'd have given it a whirl at that price :lol: )
