We looked seriously at going there last summer, but decided to remodel the kitchen, instead. It did seem to be more bang for the buck as far as resorts went. Other things I found out:
unlike most of the carribean, the locals are hispanic;
your money goes really far outside of the resorts, but there is not nearly as much local stuff to do as compared to other islands;
because of the prevailing winds or something, it is supposed to be hotter than other islands;
Catholics don't like things like nude beaches, so don't expect Hedonism style craziness.
Maybe next year.
