Friendly Caribbean Resort

Advantages: Friendly, clean, own beach, All Inclusive
Disadvantages: Entertainment Sparse

...can walk all around the complex; have bikes out to ride around or take a leisurely ride in a horse & cart. It is a safe environment with security guards situated all around. **** Conclusion: **** I would highly recommend the Victoria Golf Resort, Playa Dorado, Dominican Republic as a superb, reasonably priced (£643 per person for 14 nights, All Inclusive) Caribbean holiday to anyone....

Review of Victoria Resort Golf & Beach, Puerto Plata

  Wii Resort For Island Sports

Advantages: Some great mini-games that really show off the MotionPlus accessory
Disadvantages: Expensive to fully kit out two remotes. One or two less compelling mini-games

...INTRODUCTION Our Nintendo Wii has been hibernating under our TV, gathering dust since shortly after Christmas. The Wii party games made a brief appearance for the holidays and the shine of Wii Fit wore off after our New Year?s resolutions met with their usual success and longevity (i.e. none). It?s a fab console, but it?s very ease of ?pick up and play? makes it just as easy to ignore in favour of other pursuits. However, we were intrigued by the promise and novelty of the new Wii MotionPlus gadget, and when Wii Sports Resort (WSR) ? essentially Wii Sports 2 ? was announced, it was immediately added to our Wish List. As such, I was delighted when I received it for my birthday last week, and It has played a part in our nightly entertainment since. WHAT?S IN THE BOX WSR comes packaged with the game (in its own DVD...

  Wii should go to the Sports Resort!...

Advantages: Good for all the family, Great fun, Entertaining, Something to do on a rainy day
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Wii Sports Resort One special day last year, I woke up unusually early - it was even still dark outside. I just couldn?t wait to get downstairs and go into the living room, but I couldn?t - not just yet anyway. It?s something we always do in my family, we must all go downstairs at the same time, together. Not every morning! Just on this particular special day, so I called my mum and dad - my two younger sisters were already up, practically buzzing with excitement at the top of the stairs - and together we all walked, or rather sprinted into the living room. That special day of course, was Christmas day! Woohay! So, you?re probably wondering I wanted to tell you about this, aren?t you? Well, keep reading and you?ll find out? I love surprises, don?t you? Not knowing that something?s going to happen and then it does (as long...

Wii Sports Resort - 'Wii' liked it.

Advantages: Lots of fun for all the family. Superb graphics. Compellingly addictive.
Disadvantages: Only 12 sports featured, some of which aren't that fun to play.

...For those that own a Nintendo Wii, it won't be new knowledge to discover that the console is in many ways unique to other computer consoles in the market. For starters, there are no wires required for the controllers; all movements (even the slightest jitters if you use the Wii Motion Plus) are transmitted and you can get a genuine sense that you are playing the game for yourself in real life. This is certainly true with Wii Sports Resort. Similar to Wii Sports, each of the sports is set around the fictional Wuhu Island. So what sports are there? Well some may argue that some aren't that well-known (or indeed all that popular), but each of them offers players the opportunity for a unique gaming experience. There are 12 sports in total, and up to 4 players can play consecutively in most of the games. SWORDPLAY: This is basically...

Get active at Wii Sports Resort.......for a price!

Advantages: fun to play with family and friends, lots of game choices, some really fun games, multiplayer
Disadvantages: very expensive, some potentially boring games, not as well designed as it could be.

...Wii Sports Resort was my youngest brothers birthday present but for the purpose of research I decided to try it out myself. The game is for the Nintendo Wii and has a whopping recommended retail price of £49.99 although it is currently selling on Amazon for £39.99. This price includes the game and a ?Wii Motion Plus?. The Wii MotionPlus This is an accessory which attaches to your Wii Remote to enhance its motion sensing capabilities. It detects and reproduces your movements in the game, so whether you are playing basketball or doing some archery, every little movement you make is accurately portrayed in the game. The Wii MotionPlus is essential for game which is why it is included but its inclusion automatically makes the game a pricey one which is a bit of a shame. Whilst you only need one Wii Motion Plus for single...

Wii Sports Resort- Fun for the whole family

Advantages: fun forf whole family, lots of games, sensitive controls
Disadvantages: expensive extra devices needed for multi-player

...Since its release for retail purchase in 2006 the Nintendo Wii has enjoyed immense success. One of the key reasons for this is probably that it reaches a wider demographic than the majority of games consoles and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Wii sports resort, released as a kind of improvement on wii sports was released in july of this year, and is no exception, providing entertainment for people of all ages, and has the potential of being enjoyed by the whole family. Wii sports is set on a island beach resort, and allows the playing of a number of different games, either as a single player or for up to four players. The game requires an additional device in the form of wii motion plus, which is a more sophisticated sensing device than the regular wii remote, and is able to pick up more complicated and sensitive movements when...

Review of Wii Sports Resort (Wii)

sports resort got me active!!!!

Advantages: great fun, great multiplayer capabilities
Disadvantages: possibly the price but other than that nothing!!!!

...Wii sports resort is the next step up from the original wii sports game, only not only is it a step up its a leap forward in the fun factor. With even more sports available its difficult to get bored of this game, and very easy to get addicted to it!!!! There are 12 sports available on the game:- swordplay Wakeboarding Frisbee Archery basketball table tennis golf bowling power cruising canoeing cycling airsports. So far my favourite sports have been the wakeboarding, the frisbee and the table tennis, although i have tried all of the sports on the game and i liked everyone of them. Most of the sports on the game can be played with up to four players and there are options for matches, tournaments and vs games on each of the sports. Wii sports resort has one other major difference to the original wii sports game. As well as having...

  Meedhupparu: A Pearl of a Resort

Advantages: Stunning beauty, tranquility, dive sites
Disadvantages: Italians on an ice-cream company conference. Err...that's about it.

...INTRODUCTION My husband and myself originally considered going to the Maldives for our honeymoon. After all, when you think of the Maldives, you imagine white beaches and crystal waters in isolated splendour, perfect for romance. However, we decided against it in favour of the Caribbean, mainly because we were worried about the intense sun (I burn easily) and because, frankly, we were worried that we might get bored sitting on a beach for two weeks. I wasn't sure that I would enjoy snorkelling or scuba diving, and that was all that I had heard that there was to do in the Maldives. Ironically, on honeymoon we both caught the diving bug. We didn't think that we would ever make it to the Maldives though, as we were keen to start a family and saving hard for this. You also shouldn't dive when there is a possibility of being pregnant...

Review of Meedhupparu Island Resort, Maldives

Good Resort with more games for all ages and abilities

Advantages: Some games are very easy to play (old and young)
Disadvantages: Still has some sensing issues

...Price: Don't know because it is part of a bundle of the Wii console (Sainsbury's offer of £135.99). It is definitely cheaper than buying the game alone. Overview - 12 games to play, 7 more than Wii Resort and some are easy to play. It is for all ages and abilities. Extra hardware - Wii motion plus included. This add-on supposes to improve the sensing of player movements by the console. If this is true, I can't imagine how frustrating it is for playing games without the Wii motion plus module (see below). General comment on game play: This fun of this game comes from the motion sensing part of the game i.e. you don't need...

Caribbean Village Agador- Agadir - Morocco

Advantages: Fantastic food and entertainment
Disadvantages: Fight for the sunbeds - we just didn't bother!!

...Caribbean Village Agador When we booked a two weeks all inclusive holiday in Morocco we didn't know what to expect. It was a part of the world that we had never visited before and we went slightly unsure as to what to expect. We were staying in Caribbean Village Agador at Agadir, and were a little worried by some of the negative reports we had read on Trip Adisor. But we always like to judge a place for ourselves so went along with an open mind. The 'we' in question were my me, my husband and our 11 year old son - as anyone knows who takes away a child of this age, if they are happy so are you!! When we got off our plane at Al Massira airport we were immediatly hit by the heat, certainly a lot different from the weather we had left behind in Manchester! We were quickly through custom control and on our coach to...
