Kiki - Pompadour still Philippe Calvet. I suppose that Saber FAJR stays at Lindeman, Mehdi Kamali at Buccaneers and all the other overseas villages keep the same CdV. They ususally stay one full year... but plese don't kill me if it's not correct...
By the way, Caprera is closed....

Thanks for your help.

I think it's better to complete the list, once things are for sure.

PS: Some CDVs stay even 3 or 4 seasons...

You mean La Pointe aux Canonniers, right?
If so, looking forward to meeting Saber's brother.

Any idea where Saber will be going?

Thanks, Badboy.

Note: The list is far from being complete nor for 100 % sure.
I'll make the modifications, once everything is clear.

Also and as a side note:
With all the new CDVs, I suppose some of them won't have a village this summer.

Badboy... whenever you talk to Saber, will you give him my best regards ? He will remember me if you tell him that my husband and I are the "rollerbladers from Marrakech", and that we keep wonderful souvenirs from Les Almadies.

Let me tell you one thing... you are lucky to have such a wonderful brother, Saber. Up to now, I have not met Karim (maybe I know him from Agadir but cannot remember him).

Have you been living in Montreal for a few years already ?

Have a great day...

Hi Badboy,

Regards to your brother, Karim. My family and I have run into him quite a few times; his first week at Paradise Island and then again later at Columbus. What a sweet guy who really cared about how we were doing. It's too bad PI is no more...those were some good times.

Take care,

Shari

for those of you who want to know, Karim is doing an ace job at Cherating, understands the culture and the people, and is really good with the GOs. he's one of the few old-school CDVs i've come across, which is hard to come by nowadays. :)

Badboy,
Saber should remember me as well (Varadero, spring 2003). I am the one who had a terrible sun allergy for a couple of days. Saber said, do NOT scratch! I didn't. I was just passing ice cubes over my itching legs to get some relief.

Sav,
Very much looking forward to having Karim as CDV, once La Pointe aux Canonniers will be open again.

Sav, how long is Karim staying at Cherating? I am heading back there in July and was wondering if he will still be there? I had him there in Feb 06, in those days he used to be known as K-Rock!

Something strange is going on... just checked the Club Med website and noticed that they have now put Fred Dawance down as the chief of both Kabira and Sahoro - which is really odd because the chief of Kabira, I thought, was Karim dos Santos.... any theories as to why they made that switch?

Now when you list Ixtapa as Closed you mean Closed for renovation right?
I thought they were renovating it over the summer and reopening for Winter 2007.
I visited Ixtapa when Hammer was CDV so I am sad to see he has moved to Sandpiper but he should make a positive impact there. Was planning to go back to Ixtapa next January.

To whoever was asking about David Meyer from Turks, as the list reports he will be going to Lindeman in Australia. Does anyone know if Otranto was renovated? And is this club still adult only? Can someone tell me which clubs besides Turks are still adult only? Thanks!

Adults only (for the time being that is!):

Turks
Otranto, Italy
Kemer, Turkey
Djerba La Fidèle, Tunisia

As for Otranto, I know that the pool area has been remodeled.
Other than that, sorry, I wouldn't know. It has been too long I was there.

Hello Kiki... I believe that the village was refurbished one year ago. I'll be there at the end of June and can give you news upon my return.

I'm sure I'll spend a great time there...

Hello Badboy!

Your brother karim made my time as a GO the best it could have been. I was with him at Cherating and he really did create a Club Med family. i know every GO loved him and leititia and the village wouldnt have been the smae without him.

and boy does he love his crazy signs!!! Such a work out after every show! :)
