I am not here to talk about the free gifts offer etc by Casa Retreat, Thats their marketing style lets leave it there, to accept such offers is our choice, No one can force us to accept such offers. I have spent many years in U.S & Europe and you will be surprised that this marketing policy is very common there for host of services and products, I too have attended many such promotions abroad.
I have been associated with Casa Retreat as member since 2002 , although I did not attend any of their marketing promotion, I was inroduced to Casa Retreat by one of my friend who is a member with them. I must say from the time that I have joined them as member I have availed many holidays with them and there has never been any problem with regards to confirmation of holiday or the standard of resort / hotel provided by them, My best vacation has been at Goa at a place called Vista Do Rio, It is an excellent resort situated near Baga Beach and conveniently connected to Panjim. I visited this place first in Oct 2003 and again in Nov 2005 both the times its been a wonderful experience.
I would like to add one very important thing here, While in U.S in 1997 I had picked up one RCI Timeshare membership by paying and exorbitant amount of 2800$ i.e close to Rs 128000/- and on top of it I still pay around Rs 7000/- every year as annual fee, To my surprise I found out that the Resort Vista Do Rio at Goa is also an RCI affiliated property, Which means that by paying 128000 and Rs 7000 each year RCI would give me a holiday at Goa at Vista Do Rio, Which Casa Retreat gives me at not even 20 % of the amount I have paid to become a RCI member and on top of it I dont have to pay any annual fee etc to Casa Retreat. The valsu for money I have recieved by being Casa Retreat member is excellent and I am trly satisfied
I would recommend all my friends to join Casa Retreat as member, Infact I have introduced about 6 members from my friend circle and colleagues.
To sum it up, I would say good service , Excellent Value for money.
