A few friends of mine came back from Turks 3 months ago. While they enjoyed their stay, they did comment tyhat the Club was getting run down, and that there were many rumors coming from the GOs that Club Med would be unloading Turks. They ran in Daniel, a musician who fotmerly worked at the Club who gave them the same feedback.
Turks is my favourite Club Med and I would hate to see it go. can anyone give me an update on what's going on there?

Hey Calvin, You do what you want to do on your vacay, and I'll do what I want to do, OK? Taking 3 hours out of a 168 hour vacay is not out of the ordinary for me. You might call it mindless crap, but as someone who has spent 41 years waiting for Jet miracle of sorts, I'll spend my time as I see fit. My life doesn't need to spend all my time in a vacuum. Have a nice day.

Why is the beer at Turkoise such bilge? (Turks Head Lager/Amber). The stuff is really vile. If it ice cold it's drinkable, but there is no such thing as an ice cold beer at Sharkies, nor at the main bar. In Club Med Cancun, one gets to drink Corona (very good) or Modelo Negra (very good). In Club Med La Caravelle on the island of Guadalupe, the beer is Stella Artois (excellent). In Turkoise, the only choice is Turks Head! But, you can purchase a 12 ounce bottle of Budweiser for $5!!! Here's a tip for you beer drinkers visiting Turkoise. Throw a 30 pack of your favorite brew into your check-in luggage. Put your clothes into your carry on!

I have heard that the beer/liquor at Turks is now low class. I have been there many times, but if I can't get a cold beer, I'll go elsewhere. Turks should be the jewel of Club Med Carib, but it looks and sounds like CM is cutting too many corners.

How's the reef for snorkeling?

When we went 8+ years ago it was great but last year we caught it at a bad time and we couldn't snorkle b/c of current and sand in the water.

Anyone been more recently?

I haven't been back to Cancun in 3 years, but the snorkeling was great then as well as my prior trips. Sometimes Mom Nature screws up the visibility, but that could happen anywhere. It's a great place.

I am about to leave for an almost three week holiday in Turks with the intention of diving almost every day. I was just informed that during the period of my stay- and through October 2010, that the entire Marina side of the resort is going to be closed. I am beyond upset. Making guests that dive walk the ridiculous distance from the D, E and F buildings with heavy scuba gear in tow is wrong- especially when they don't inform us in advance.

Does anyone know what they're doing at Turks? I can only guess that they're going to do a major overhaul of the rooms- changing configurations, creating suites, etc.

If so, that can only mean that Turks will soon be priced in the stratosphere along with Cancun, Martinique and Punta Cana.

Any info would be appreciated.

I'm leaving with a group of people on Oct 16, 2010. If they pull BS, they will be in court in no time.
