Beautiful resort. Very friendly people. All staff make you feel like a King. Excellent food!
Everyone is very nice and not too pushy. Thanks for the coffee. Your office is beautiful.
I am happy that I found SaveOnResorts.com on the internet. I was looking for a good value for a vacation and could not have been happier with my experience with SaveOnResorts.com. The description of the resort was perfect. I would not hesitate to vacation using SaveOnResorts again.
If all of your resort descriptions are as accurate as the BlueBay Grand Esmeralda, you should always have very happy clients! Thank you again and we will be using your site again.
SaveOnResorts.com was beyond my expectations - the pricing was fabulous, the staff were extremely helpful and the presentation we committed to was very courteous and professional. It was not a pressure filled meeting and the representative kept strictly to the 90 minutes that is mentioned in the vacation package. We where very happy that we took the leap of faith and booked our vacation with SaveOnResorts!

Cozumel
La Rama
12/16/2009
|
Officially starting on December 16, 'La Rama' generally involves self-organized groups of children who decorate a branch from a tree or plant and then go from door to door shouting "cantamos la rama?" (can we sing the branch?). Carrying homemade lanterns and accompanied by a rhythm section of kitchen utensils, the groups launch into a very lengthy song with an ever-changing melody, always including some verses that ask the audience to give them their aguinaldo (a sort of Christmas bonus) if they are pleased with the performance.
The same group of children may take to the streets night after night until just before Christmas eve, generally entrusting their winnings to one of the childrens mothers, at which time the merry band will use their stash to buy piñatas and treats for their very own Christmas party.

Cozumel
Las Posadas
12/16/2009
|
Throughout Cozumel, neighbors, families and church groups gather to reenact the journey of the holy family as they traveled from Nazareth to Bethlehem, seeking shelter on the eve of the savior's birth. The modern-day parade of pilgrims stop at designated houses to sing their request for shelter while those waiting behind the closed door respond with a musical refrain, telling them they have no room.
The tradition of Las Posadas most likely evolved through the teaching methods employed by the Catholic conquistadors and their clergy. Because the Spaniards didn't speak the local language, they created plays that would convey the story of the birth of Jesus to the pagan natives. The people responded enthusiastically to this form of theater and added their own cultural touches including traditional dishes and the ruthless smashing of piñatas.
