    Looking to book/fly out next week but unsure what the weather willl be like in November. How was your experience weather wise and would you recommend going in November?
    Thankyou.

    • @willwork2travel

      We've been fortunate with November as the hurricane season is usually slowing down by then. The temperatures are consistent all year long, so you should enjoy warm water with tropical sunshine! Prices are typically a little lower as well due to the possibility of hurricanes, but if you plan on booking and flying out the same week you can typically see out at least 10 days with decent accuracy concerning any tropical disturbances. We never worry about the thunderstorms in the forecast since they rarely last more than an hour in the afternoons. Have fun!!

    great video and lots of good hints! we've booked a preferred club double pool view. Which section is this in? Is there a dedicated preferred club section? If so, which section is it?

    • @willwork2travel
      @willwork2travel  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the comment! There are preferred sections for the pool, an area on the beach, in the main lobby and one restaurant (Seaside grill) for breakfast and lunch. I believe the preferred rooms are actually spread out among several buildings. We saw a sign near our building (Mar Azul side of the resort) that said it was Preferred rooms, but I suspect there are more in other buildings since we were not super close to the preferred pool area.

    Hello, wonderful video!! Thank you for taking the time out to capture, edit and lost. I would like to surprise my boyfriend for his 40th birthday. Would you recommend this resort overall? Did the staff treat you well? Was the food good? Did you ever get bored? Lol. Sorry to swamp you. I have so many questions. Everyone is talking about the Secrets resort but I’m more curious about the Royal Dream. Do you pay at hotel? Is there a curfew for the pool? Lastly, did you purchase the travel insurance? Loll

    • @willwork2travel
      @willwork2travel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks for the comment! I'll try to address your questions:
      I would certainly recommend Dreams & Secrets.
      The staff at both resorts which are next to each other is amazing! We have been to other Secrets / AM Resorts locations, and they are all consistently good.
      The food is very good for an all-inclusive. I would recommend upgrading to the Preferred Club package so you can eat breakfast and lunch at SeaSide (if you stay at Dreams).
      We didn't get bored, but you can always book an excursion through the hotel like we did for the Marinarium tour if you do get bored.
      We paid for the trip on Expedia, but brought some cash to tip (even though it is not required).
      I'm not sure about the pool curfew, I would assume it closes at some point - but we were likely sleeping by that time, LOL!
      We did purchase travel insurance. It's best to do that the same day you book, which we did through Expedia as well.
      The main difference is that Dreams is usually a little less $$, and kids are allowed. Secrets is 100% adults only.

    • @willwork2travel
      @willwork2travel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We haven’t been to Grand Moon Palace, but from looking online it looks like the resort in Cancun is very kid friendly with a lot of activities for families. From what we’ve experienced with AMR brands (Secrets/Dreams) this was a typical resort in their mid-range price.

      @willwork2travel  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It was plenty warm, mid 80's during the day perfect for swimming to cool off. The temperature in DR is sunny & hot year-round. Hurricane season typically ends in November, so hopefully things will be slowing down in terms of storms soon.

      Masks are optional, they do recommend wearing a mask at the buffet style restaurant where you get your food (not at the table) but otherwise it is left up to what you feel comfortable with everyplace else.

    What are some of the main perks of upgrading to preferred? Is it just the seaside restaurant and private beach access? I'm looking to book this resort but I see preferred is quite a bit of an increase price wise. Just wondering if the experience will still be great if I don't choose preferred.

    • @willwork2travel
      @willwork2travel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think you’ll have a great time either way! It was nice having breakfast at seaside, it was better than the buffet. If the resort is not too busy, the regular beach area should have plenty of seating. There is a small area near the pool for preferred club, but we didn’t use it. It was nice having a concierge for restaurant reservations, but the resort wasn’t very busy so we may have been able to get the same times on our own. I think if it’s busy the preferred club is more worth it, otherwise save the money. Have fun!!

You don't need a test (currently) to get TO the resort, only to get back to your home country.
