Does this place look familiar?

Blue Seas??? Since When???


Here is the description of Blue Seas, which can be found at:

The all-suite Blue Seas a Gay and Lesbian Resort is located on Los Muertos Beach, approximately five miles from Puerto Vallarta International Airport. Nuevo Vallarta is eight miles away.

Hotel amenities include the swimming pool (overlooking Banderas Bay), restaurant and bar, room service, and palapas and lounge chairs on the beach.

Blue Seas includes three linked buildings that descend from mountain to ocean with mountain/city views to partial or full ocean views.

All suites feature kitchen facilities (with stoves, ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, garbage disposals, and microwaves), cable TV, VCRs, washers and dryers, and safes.

Needless to say, those of us who have purchased time at Playa del Sol are a bit perplexed as to when it became Blue Seas and when it became a Gay and Lesbian Resort. Interestingly It appears that the owner of Playa del Sol, in a rather shameless, grab for additional clientele is trying to capitalize on the proximity to Blue Chairs, a Gay and Lesbian Resort just down the beach from us.

There is also some question as to whether this is even legal. It seems as though no timeshare or other commercial activities are actually allowed at Playa del Sol. When most of us bought our fractions (four weeks in a specific unit at a specific time each year) we were assured that no timeshares would ever be allowed. Subsequently the Home Owner By-Laws were amended by the owners of Playa del Sol and timeshare sales began. The legality of this amendment is now being questioned.

What is almost certainly suspect is the owners being able to change the name of Playa del Sol to Blue Seas turn it into a resort with daily rentals. Of course a cursory glance at those of us who own here, mostly middle-aged or older and hetrosexual, should dispell any possible buyers of the notion that this is anything like the Blue Chairs. Certainly the kiddie toys floating in the pool should be a clue.
