Sadly, we were just down there and the beach has cranes and big trucks on it and there is a deep trench. The old resturant of which we were fond is boarded up and there is a board wall extending out where the are doing construction but the noise etc is of course ongoing. The main pool is right by that and the distinctive palapa bar ...so they are not really useable. We did not stay there. Our unit which we loved will be torn down and we were given "an opportunity" to " upgrade" to Playa Grande (the opposite of the kind of lovely peaceful place Sol Mar WAS) ...or to " upgrade" (at of course more money) to a new unit but we could not afford to pay what would be necessary to get the same view we "owned" with our unit. They are destroying what we came to Sol Mar for to sell more units to more people for a lot more money. We have been lied to repeatedly and of course on top of that, their "plans" change. The only thing that does not is the sucking of more money from Americans who think that promises or even contracts will give them what they were assured. Why buy from these folks again??!!!!! The second beachfront wing will be torn down and so construction etc will be ongoing here so I would stay away until after its all finished (2012?) The uniqueness of this resort was that it was not oversize, not "deluxed up" and grandiose..and was in a pristine, natural setting and appealed to those who appreciated that. No more.
