I want to thank everyone for keeping this highly emotional situation on a even keel. People who have spent their hard earned dollars on a stay at Sea Splash have every right to ask questions and receive answers. But please be aware that we have only heard one side of the story. Only one side of the business dealings with the owner(s) of Sea Splash have been made public, which obviously paints a one sided picture.

I will be letting the management at Sea Splash know that they have every right to post their side of the story, but frankly, since this is a complicated business deal I would hazard to guess that they may not take me up on that offer.

But those who have reservations and Living Social vouchers should not face undo worry. As has been pointed out by the folks who have graciously taken the time to call Sea Splash, the resort has said that they will be honoring all reservations and vouchers for stays at the property.

And for those who may feel slighted that Jim is not currently there, please be aware that there was always the chance that Jim may have been off the island during your future stay. To harshly judge or condemn any property because a single person is not there is really not fair to any business.

One of the problems that the internet has created for businesses and people alike is that what was once delegated to one sided talk at a bar or dinner table and very limited in its reach now has the potential to become known world wide in a matter of moments. A "mob mentality" can take over as more people want to join the "bandwagon" and the truth can be lost. I know that some of you can relate and as one who has been unfairly treated by one sided talk in the past, it is not something I wish on anyone to have to deal with in their life.

So once again, thanks for keeping this thread informative, helpful and respectful to all. We hope this situation is resolved quickly and fairly for all involved.
