Changed from Xtabi to Catcha! Ha!

Thanks to some good advice from other boardies (thanks, Clarity ;) ), we've changed from Xtabi to Catcha. I kept going back and forth, and messed around and missed out on Pisces! ARGH! We booked Gemini I instead. We thought the Gatehouse would be too loud for us and we wouldn't be happy with Little Capricorn (I think that's the name?) because it doesn't have a patio/balcony.

Spending a little more money than we would have at Xtabi, but I fell in love with Catcha when we ate at Ivan's. I can't wait to hang out there!

You will love it. Awesome staff who take great care of you. Love the place from the top down.

Yep
What he said!
:)

I had hoped to meet up with you when we visit Xtabi for an afternoon in July! Looks like we'll have to check out Catcha, too! Hoping to get my husband out of the "AI only" thinking mode.

Ditto!

One trip to Catcha should do the trick!

Are you going to the Saturday night Seastar concert? We will be there on the 7th! Come on over!

My husband feels the same way, but fortunately for me (not so much for him lol), I am 'bossy'! Ha!

I have stayed at Xtabi twice and Catcha once and you will be happy you changed. I love cottage #4 at Xtabi. However, I love the grounds, pool and Ivans at Catcha. Also, in my opinion, I like the area down by Catcha better. The water and area are nicer.

Good choice.

Enjoy!

We just booked the last couple nights of our next trip at Catcha. We booked the Little Capricorn because we messed around and missed out on Pisces too. We're not too worried about no balcony since we will have wonderful views at BCC for most of our trip. We're also thinking maybe "balcony gravity" won't set in this way.

You will be happy no matter what at Catcha
But here is a hint (especially if your trip is far off). Call or email Andrea/Mauvette at Catcha and let them know what room you really wanted. They will put you on a list and if the person who booked it backs out they will then call or email you and let you know it is available.
Don't give up hope, it happens a lot. That is how I got my favorite room again for this trip.

Sagi is my all time dream place and I was heartbroken when I saw it was booked for our April trip, but soon enough I was told it was once again open and available, they let me know and I snatched it up quick!

But like I said many times before....there is no bad place when it comes to Catcha!
Enjoy :)

I think we will be happy with Gemini I. I am so excited!

So YOUR the one who got Sagi for those dates....I wont lie Shauna I was cussing you a few days ago!!!! LOL Glad it was you. I'm gonna get it next time. heh heh

What time do ya'll get in (22nd right?)

Yep! That was me.....feel free to cuss me, b/c I sure was cussing the person who had it booked before us! LOL
Once you stay there you are spoiled.....hard to stay anywhere else!

Yes, we are in the 22nd, you can come hang out at Sagi while we are there!

P.S. We booked that back in October/November just right after we returned from our last trip, and honestly only by luck, because someone already had it like I said. But bless Andrea, she knew I wanted it and told me when it opened back up! I was thrilled! And pushed the button so fast smoke came off my finger!

LOL, Party at our Place!

tfw73 - are you staying your whole trip at Catcha? What are your dates? I know we'll be there about the same time.

tfw73 - Good choice;)
You're going to be very happy at the Gemini!

Now I don't feel so bad for cussing people who were more strategic than I and booked my favorite room. I think I'll be booking my reach in 2013 real soon.

No, first seven nights at Coco and the last three at Catcha! So July 2-9 at Coco and 9-12 at Catcha.

Clarity, I LOVE those pictures! Do you mind if I save them to show people where we're staying? :)

Of course not!:) Glad you like them. I have a lot more that I haven't even re-sized and uploaded yet. I'll share them when I can.
Enjoy Catcha! You're going to love it!

Thank you...those are awesome pictures. They are making me super excited!

Awwwwww, my sweet sweet Catcha!
I see those sights in my dreams every night!
Great pics Clarity!

Booger, I am with you....you've gotta stay in Sagi! There is nothing like it....everyone needs to stay there at least once. When we left last time I said to Raul "Now how are we ever going to be able to go to sleep again without the sounds of the waves crashing all around us?????"
It's Magical!
