Thanks for the report! I know that you guys enjoy really good food and I noted that you ate most of the time at Papagayo. How was the food overall?
Simply has not been very well stocked for it seems a couple of months now. Super U in Marigot or Petit Casino in Orient Village are both better choices these days. And Petit Casino does deliver groceries to the Orient Village area also.

When we were there last June, the service and food at Papagayo were both excellent. Looking forward to being there again in about 6 weeks!

Sounds like a perfectly relaxing trip to Club Orient. Happy 44th anniversary & thanks for sharing.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.

Hi Cathy and Steve ... nice to see you after almost 10 years. Missed your birthday, but glad we were there for your anniversary. Let's not wait for another 10 years before we see each other again. Kevin and Jeannette

Thanks for the trip report Cathy! Sounds like you had a wonderful two weeks. We'll be there in 9 wks <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/circle.gif" alt="" /> and also staying at Club O (first time in a mini-suite). You mentioned dining at the Sunset Cafe. Drove by GCBC Resort last summer but couldn't determine where to access and park for the Sunset Cafe...any advice? And lastly, any problems finding a spot under the yellow umbrellas since the beach has narrowed?
