Re: anyone been to this resort? (by Patrick T.):

I too have no doubt that (at least some) Villas Sol salesmen are in on this fraud. One of the worst offenders at Coco/Bahia (and he really was such a friendly guy, with a nice girlfriend who's now his wife) was Travis Scott Gogue (who now has dropped his last name and goes by Travis Scott -- apparently he was tired of hearing from his victims under his real name). Travis came from Villas Sol. An online forum in 2007 called him out as a fraud, so this thing goes back at least that far. And this fraud is metastasizing all over, especially into Mexico (where the gang apparently has their headquarters in Puerto Vallarta). You should try to get your money back -- you have 8 business days to notify Villas Sol, but they may waive even that if you're persistent and threatening enough. But even if that doesn't work, you have time to notify your credit card company to put a stop on payment. Use this forum as your evidence. Good luck!
