Heard it is an invitation only weekend at Margaritaville Hotel! There is also an open house today from 1-4pm. Wish someone would show a few pics! Thanks!

I have no immediate plans to go there (unfortunately) but I'd want to see the inside and hear about the amenities before deciding to go. Hopefully some of you staying there for the benefit will report back!

I wonder if he is going to be at the open house? I am guessing the chances of him being there on the 1st are pretty slim.

My parents were in the area last week and took some pictures.

I'll see if I can get the pictures from Mom and post them here.

Wow! First time seeing the pics for me. It's not exactly what I think of when I think "hotel in Margaritaville". It looks more like a "condo commando" Margaritaville but I guess I really did not know what I was expecting. To be fair, I like the tacky/touristy/goudy Margaritaville cafes/bars where there's Buffett parrotphernalia everywhere you look so I can't wait to hear some reviews.
Thanks for the links.

Local news talked about it this morning, says they'll have follow up and video on the 6 and 10pm news.

I expect to be there tomorrow.

I took a bunch with my cell..but I cant find my USB cable to get pics to computer.. when I do get them here..not sure how to post them here. I was lounging my fat butt in the pool. Didn't stay to long though since all they had was Landshark and Margaritas..too hung over for Margaritas and I can never do Landshark. Will hit it up this weekend again and give the food a chance and check out some cocktails!!
