Hey Moore... What's up. A different side if I may...
I would expect the wealthy to expect more, just cause they are used to getting more. I am not wealthy (as in millionaire) but I make enough (present day not included) to get what I want, when I want and how much I want. I was not offended at the lacking from any department at H3.
I would further expect that if someone was not "wealthy" the very chance to be at Hedo, or any place as "cool" while living on a low salary, would suffice nicely. I may not be right, but that's what I think anyway. I have been broke and I have been well off. Lacking facilities would piss someone like me off way more if I was able to afford the very best and less than best was what I got. Enough about that.
The food. I am probably not even qualified to speak here, but as usual I will. At H3, I stayed away from every weird sounding food I heard. By weird, I also include "jerk chicken." The name doesn't sound weird, but when I think of any 60 Minutes special I have ever seen about the way chicken is prepared here in the US. I was sure that Jamaica would do a worse job (lol)... Also, because my personal diet keeps me away from rich foods and the fact that I wanted to make sure my eating habits in Jamaica did not slow me down, I stayed with the very, very basics: Bagels, toast, fruit, pancakes, cheese, pre-packaged yogurt, french toast, sandwiches and the like. I ate nothing fried, greasy, or otherwise. I felt light and great all the time and never needed one ounce of Imodium or other stomach assistance. FOR ME ONLY, I can't imagine eating greasy foods knowing I would be in the hot sun and filling my stomach with alcohol all evening. Just doesn't sound like a match made in heaven to me. Again, that's just me. "A" also followed the same strategy and was fine all week.
I assume Jwoods booked with an 5 star resort in mind. I use "fun" to rate my resorts now and H3 is above 5 star in my book of fun.
I completely agree that Jwoods has the right to blow off steam. I try and take none of that away. I just need more than a room downgrade to convince me that the guy isn't just too uptight in life.
We went to Sandals years ago... IT SUCKED. In contrast, the food was great, the facilities were great (don't know about now) but the crowd was full of duds. We went to H3 in search of sexual nature things, including the very idea of being naked around each other and others in public. Call it an item on life's curiosity/wish list. Other ideas for "A" to play with a girl or two factored in heavily as well. We found that in 30 minutes we loved the place for reasons other than why we went. We got what we went for, but got so much more.
I have always said if you send two guys to the mall and tell them to buy the coolest shirt they can find, they will NEVER come back with the same one. That's true in life. I think that most folks that go to Hedo and love it, would at least find their favorite shirt amongst the same few stores. Those that DON'T love Hedo, will likely not even GO in those few stores. Silly analogy I know, but those who LOVE Hedo will get it.
