I didn't take a picture, but the building is still 'standing', sort of. We didn't walk down there, but viewed from in front of Perch Lite, the roof appeared to be in sections and the sections were all whopper-jawed, looked like the whole building had been picked up and thrown down. Most of the rest of the buildings that are there at Club O appeared to be somewhat cleaned out, possibly with the thought they will be refurbished and re-used? We didn't go look at them up close.

It still stands but will not be open in the near future. Plans are to get 30 units ready by winter. You can certainly understand that with that many units even at full capacity Papagayo could not be supported profitabily. carib cheers, doctorj

They said before that those who had donated to Club O would be the first to get reservations, so perhaps they will be contacting those people directly??

When we were there in May Stephen was going through units with a supplier. Please believe me when I say they will rebuild. Club O will be bigger and better. It may be slower than we all want but until you have seen the destruction, understand the system, and realize the constraints we cannot appreciate the task ahead. I am so grateful that our friends who work at Club O are all safe. It was a close call for some. carib cheers, be patient and please visit the island, doctorj
