There needs to be a awareness of the locals in many chalets in Club Orient compound. They are similar to the cliff boys from Cupecoy who believe they offer tourists a service standing in front of the chalets with full you know want? It is a badand sad state of affairs. I did here the massage employee claiming Club Orient will be back in 18 months. Insurance is settled and received. The company hired is going to come in and go full throttle to rebuild. . Wonderful news if true. A quick search of the old Club O wesite and FB page yielded no confirmation of a settlement and construction.My own sources on the island haven't heard this either. But I guess we can always hope.

WOW, what a response. I think you need to re-read her original post, (I did hear, claiming). We are ALL just travelers, only reporting what we hear and know. I know you have a strong affection to Club O, but so do many others on TTOL, so this might be of interest to them. As I say to everyone, take a deep breath and relax, this is just a message board, ONLY, not rule of law in someone’s eyes. Just me saying. And Carol if you feel the need to take my comments down, please feel free, no harm intended. Safe travels to all!

jenni---I understand where you're coming from and I was very skeptical of the post, saying things were settled, from the beginning. From my limited understanding of the situation, the big issue is not receiving of the insurance proceeds, but releases from the owners regarding same, and disposition of same.

Thanks for your input. Hearsay is often inaccurate and the more it is passed on, the more out of the realm of reality it becomes. Facts are always appreciated.
One of the training classes I used to participate in did an example of how hearsay changes as it is passed on. We would have 12-20 people sitting around a table and one of the trainers would whisper to one person at the table a short 1-2 sentence statement. This person would then pass this statement along, whispering and no writing, to the next person and so on until it made the entire round. I do not recall one instance of the initial statement making it around the table without something being left out, something being added or the FACTS of the initial statement being totally changed.

jenni---I understand where you're coming from and I was very skeptical of the post, saying things were settled, from the beginning. From my limited understanding of the situation, the big issue is not receiving of the insurance proceeds, but releases from the owners regarding same, and disposition of same. The information which has been posted on Facebook is still current and up to date. Unfortunately nothing moves quickly through the French legal system. I'm not sure how any major changes will be communicated, but I'm sure it will be more official than hear-say from a third party that someone may have heard from someone else. But TRUST ME! The owners are very eager for things to move along and rebuilding to happen, and they will be VERY happy to let everyone know when it starts to happen. There is no reason to keep that secret! Thanks again for setting the facts straight. Don't shoot the messenger! I hear something and put it out there. It is what communication is all about. Sooner or later the truth will correct any misinformation. Peace!

jenni--thanks for posting.
Martini--I have no problem with people posting things, but there often needs to be a truth filter attached. If you hear something and it directly contradicts information which is believed to be credible, it's usually best to regard such information with a grain of salt.
