Bill and Peg will be at CTI from March 3-10. This will be our 11th trip to Couples Resorts. Besides CTI, we've been to CN and CSA, but CTI has always been our special home. We are looking forward to meeting new friends! We are from northern Michigan.

Hi Bill and Peg! We are Steph & Jeremiah from Minnesota. We will be at CTI March 2-10. This is our second Couples trip (we went to CSS Feb. 2011), but our first trip to CTI!

[Hendy]

Chris and Rhonda here from Edmonton, Alberta...and while we won't be at CTI during the same time period (we'll be there from March 22-29), we're looking very forward to seeing a lot of friends we haven't met yet when we're there. Talked to a few other people on the other March 2012 thread, and it sounds like we're going to be having a lot of fun on our honeymoon!!! Very excited...particularly for the island! Lol. See some of you soon!!

[Cloudwatcher]

Hello Steph and Jeremiah! I think you'll love CTI. We visited CSS on our last trip on a Trading Places day. We are planning on doing that again this trip to see some things we missed last time.

[S&J]

Hi Bill & Peg!

We are hoping to do trading places one day to CSS, as well. We'd love to go back and visit, as we loved CSS and SSB. Can't wait for CTI and making new friends! 80 days, as of tomorrow! Yippee! See you in March!

Hello from the great Northwest. Teri and I (Mike) will be there from the 2nd to the 10th, celebrating our 25th on the 3rd. Just got certified for diving, so I'm really looking forward to getting more dives in. Don't think Teri will be joining me (diving), plan to send her to the spa. Our first time to Jamaica. I've read so much about CTI. I'm expecting this will exceed our expectations.

My husband and I are sooo excited to be returning to our beloved Tower Isle. 94 days. We will be there 3/23-4/2. This year we visited Couples Negril and that was beautiful too, but we miss the Au Natural island and it isn't the same when you just have a designated area on the beach vs. an entire island. So many good memories and we are hoping to make more on this trip!!! Can't wait.

Kiki and Tom

[Hendy]

Well Rhonda and I are both getting super excited, both about our wedding and then the honeymoon at CTI...76 days to go!!! We were kinda wondering what else we should be bringing besides fun-loving attitudes, dressier clothes for the restaurants, and lots of sunscreen (for me!). We'll be spending most of the time on the island, so it seems we have a lot of room left in our suitcases, lol! I'm figuring we should probably bring our own insulated mugs. Does CTI have good "floaties" and towels or should we bring something like that? Also, do we bring towels TO the island or do they have them there? And finally, has anyone ever done something like a 70's theme kinda party one night? Not saying anything like a Hedo-style Pimp 'n' Ho party or anything, I just keep hearing that CTI is pretty dead at night, so maybe something like that could spruce it up. Just an idea, throwing it out there. Thanks for any help, looking forward to meeting some of you soon!

[novascotiajack]

Hendy and Rhonda, There's plenty of floaties on the island and we always get towels before we get on the boat to go over..there's a big stash of them there at the dock. I don't see many/any that bring insulated mugs....we don't... just drink faster...so that's up to you. There are different shows at night and a trip to Margarittaville...We've never been bored there at all. ..I think were at 67 days and counting..... see ya on the Island :-) Jack

Congrats Rhonda and Chris on your upcoming wedding and honeymoon. You can bring your insulated mugs, but you will probably have to get your drinks in the cups provided, and then pour them into your mugs. You don't need to bring floaties or towels. Your first set of towels will be on your bed when you arrive, and after a day's use, you turn them in at designated places, and simply get new towels. I have never heard of having a party like you mentioned. Groups of couples sometimes enjoy drinks and each other's company in the hot tubs at night. Many people, young and old report that after a a day in the sun, especially on the island, you are just fine with enjoying the house band or whatever entertainment there is that night, and then retiring rather early to your room to sleep! If you still have some energy after the regular entertainment, you might want to go to the Piano Bar. Lots of fun there, and the best bartender in the world, Damion.

[jhun421]

Hey Chris and Rhonda!
We'll be arriving a few days before you (on Mar 19), so will be sure to save you a spot at the swim-up bar (the one on the island?) You are getting married there? On what day?
We were at CTI last May and had a blast - you will love it there!
Looking forward to meeting you as well as everyone else.
Jim and Judi

[Hendy]

Hi there Jim and Judy!
Of COURSE the one on the island!! Sounds great, lol. No, we're not actually getting married there. The original plan was to be married there, but family issues are keeping too many people at home (gonna be an uncle...twice!) so we changed plans. Looking very forward to enjoying our honeymoon there though. I'm pretty sure that I noticed on the other "not-so-official" March thread that there is another couple getting married there on the day that we arrive. Can't remember names though. Anyway, we will see you fellow "islanders" very soon!!

[traderclaude]

hello ...I will slide over to this thread...Jennifer and I will be at CTI from 3/17 -3/24, we were there last in march of 2010 and made some great friends and had some great times, especially socializing in the spa tubs and pool late nights. CTI is a great place and we are counting down the days...We also met a couple there that has decided to meet us back there this year. I think we have 3 guys that are going on a 1/2 day fishing charter and looking for 2-3 more if anyone would be interested. We did this 2 years ago and had a great time while the ladies visited the spa. We caught 6 nice black tuna. Looking forward to meeting everyone and sharing drinks and bob marleys...

Claude

[marbil]

Hey Claude,
I guess I'll slide over too. I'm still interested in the fishing trip, so count me in. We changed our plans a little and should be arriving the 18th and staying through the 29th. Marlene and I can't wait to make it back home! See you all there!

Bill
