Hi, an old, re-registered member here. My husband and I had been traveling the US and the Caribbean for close to 10 years as tag-alongs with friends who are owners at Royal Caribbean in Cancun until 2006 when they traded into Oyster Bay in October of that year. We so loved the resort, it was the first time my husband and I found a resort we thought we could call home. PBBR has a very casual, tropical, light and airy feel to it. There's no marble or brass to bee seen. We bought one week in a studio before the week was out, which can be upgraded to a one or two bedroom within II with a fee before trading. On a subsequent trip Oyster Bay had begun construction on a new one bedroom building and a condo building (and the construction was handled well, still ongoing, but little interference with guests) and we added another week in the new one bedroom building. Beautiful building, the construction should be completed very soon. OBBR is out of the way, but cab service is plentiful, and OBBR is away from the congestion. Car rental is not difficult. The beach is clean, the resort is set high on the coral, so it should be safe from hurricanes (or, safer), and there are several private restaurants in the immediate area, along with the Westin down Dawn Beach. We are early Baby Boomers, so we like getting away from the action - we have too much action in our lives at home! We also recently purchased a one week, two bedroom at Los Abrigados R&S in Sedona AZ, to have a week domesticly.
I would encourage everybody to spend a week at Oyster Bay, the staff is wonderful and the owners and guests are also.
