I think it was Ian, not Irma.

I don't know how or where the pool pumps are installed, but I would have thought they would have raised them somehow after they were taken out before.

Thanks, corrected.

I was hoping the same thing. Raised and/or made them removable.

I got an email about the resort even though i cancelled my trip. That is a bit odd.

What is really odd is that the email says the paradise pools are open, but does not mention the lazy river. The front desk rep yesterday told me the paradise pools were closed with no estimate on when they would be fixed.

Pumps for the lazy river were rebuilt about a metre above the ground.

That's good. I hope it was enough to save them this time.

Update from the Board

Hurricane Damage Update:

We are fortunate that Coconut Cove did not sustain anywhere near the level of damage we previously received from Hurricane Ian back in 2022. We had an average of a two foot storm surge, not nearly equal to the nine foot surge from Ian. The power was just restored as of Monday this week. Temporary generators were used for initial restoration work. Work has been completed to the point that a preliminary opening is planned for tomorrow (Wednesday).

The Resort team, led by Rey, did a great job at preparing the property for the storm and continued with a tremendous effort towards reopening. Some of the units experienced limited moisture from storm wind/rain. This is being remediated by a third party company. Items such as the guard house, thatched roofs, and other non-essential operating areas still require further investigation. General clean up and safety issues are under control. The beach will continue to remain closed as work to repair damage from both recent hurricanes will be on-going.

There is still a great deal of inspection and testing in progress at the Resort, and the Board will ensure a more comprehensive update goes out to the owners within the next 30 days, along with the projected cost to our Association.

At least they have a $7 million nest egg if they have to do a lot of repairs.

I spoke with a front desk rep today who confirmed all of the pools And lazy river are cleaned & up & running/open. Only the beach & sports courts are not open at this time.
