This was our first trip to Hedo (5/21- 5/26) and our first experience with an all inclusive resort, so we don’t have anything to compare the food or service to. Our impression of the food was that, well, at best, ok. For the most part, I found the food to be bland, but I passed that off as having to cook for the many pallets that come to Hedo. What’s not spicy to some may be too spicy for others and who wants to spend your vacation in the bathroom? We found the food tasted better the more hungry you were. We knew going in that the service would be slower than say back in the states, and so that wasn’t a surprise. The servers were polite and we made sure to return their kindness with “pleases” and “Thank yous”, as to not be one of those ugly Americans. Not once did we ever feel we were being mistreated by the staff because we were part of the “Wild Bunch”.
Which brings me to Mike&Shelly’s post earlier. I don’t know what this group did to you, and I don’t really want to know. You don’t have to justify your post to me. I’m confident that what ever the transgression, you feel it’s justified to warn the others, which is what this site is about. It just wasn’t our experience with them, which is just as valid an observation. (Yes, Walt almost hit me with a water balloon thrown from the roof. I didn’t think anything of it. I acknowledge that others might. It was all done in good fun, no malice was intended.)
For the newbies: To us, the best advice on this site is that when you go, to join a group. We joined the Wild Bunch and had the best time. Within minutes of arriving (hell, as soon as we got on the bus at the airport) we had friends, friends to share the experience of Hedo with. Instant friends to hang out with, party with, eat with and most of all, laugh with. If we wanted to be alone, and that was the case on occasion, we would pack up and go do our thing. No problems, mon. I imagine that would basically be the same with any group out there, not just the Wild Bunch. Wild Walt and Cheryl were very kind to us and great hosts. It was evident the amount of time and energy they put into making the week fun for everyone. I can’t thank them and the Wild Bunch enough for taking us under their wing and helping us experience Hedo 3 and all its decadence.
We just got to know H3, and miss her already….
