They look like an artists conseption of what it will look like when it is finished. Last year EdenH had a lot of pics. up like that before they were opened,as I assume most resorts do when they are setting up their advertizing before they are open.

Actually those Eden pics were mine...taken by me...with my $200 camera. Some of the shots of Moon appear to be computer generated...and some look original.

Hi Mike..,I know the pictures you are talking about..,the ones I meant were on the Tour Company websites in the fall showing the EdenH up and running.As it wasn't ready at that time, they just go mostly with the CG ones,so that people can have some idea what it does/will look like.

Hello Everyone! Our group is booked to stay there on the 23rd of January. Is there anyone out there that is actually at the resort (or who was booked this week and was relocated) who can tell us some acurate info? We have until Jan 15th to cancel without any charges -please help!

getmethereplease,

Here is a link to some exterior photos of the Moon Palace I took within the week. The first 14 views are from the beach and walkway area on January 4th. The last 6 are from the outside of the entrance driving by on January 9th. This does not show inside any buildings.

I can say the outside does look much different than chubs photos. I imagine the exterior photos are an artist rendering of how it will look when complete or another Moon Palace location.

USSFrank took those pictures this January, I also received a map of the Bahia from him, that he took at guest services desk , it was also labled January 6th 2005, his camera battery ran out and he never reset the camera when he put a new battery in.

I will be there on January 23rd in PUJ and I will make a point of going there and taking pictures, I also have another tour for the Elegance, so I will be able to tell you what is there and what is happening.

why are we all trying to shoot the messanger for posting pictures.

I can find all kinds of internet pictures and have them hosted and tell you I took them, pointless, give USSFrank a break, he took pictures and many dispute their authenticity.

I also posted EdenH pictures in the past after a tour with vienemo and had try and evade all the comments about whether they were real or not.

A new resort that is just opening should have enough marketing sense to post representative pictures of what is there on their website so people actuall know what they are buying,,,not just artist conceptions.

I have new one received today from Rafael of the elegance taken yesterday to put on my photo site, well I think I will just drool over them and leave others in the dark...I am also a messenger and ain't going to be shot down.

mi dos peso's.....7 days till I can relax and enjoy a cold Bohenia with PCMike.
