This weekend, we held a prive fashion show at Suite ME which was organized by IT Holding and Hit Gallery (our fashion boutique in the Hotel). The show took place to announce the launch of the new Galliano, Ferré & Cavallili lines. At the end, the designs were all auctioned off with proceeds going to Fundacion Pelopidas.

Last Wednesday, we threw a party at the hotel to celebrate the Season premiere of the Real World 22 Cancun. The event was incredible and of course, the entire Real World cast made it out to watch episode 1 and meet fans!

As you may know, this season was filmed right here at ME Cancun in SuiteME, a 9,757 sq ft suite we built for the show. Here are some photos for the event:



Don't forget to tune this Wednesday at 9pm for the 2nd episode! If you're interested in booking SuiteME or have any questions about it, please don't hesitate to ask!

We're pretty excited about the start of the new season of the Real World Cancun (June 24th), not just because we like the show, but also because it was filed here at ME by Melia Hotel in Cancun! We checked out MTV's website and found a sneak preview (below) of the show as well as the Real World cast bios and photos of the cast taken around ME Cancun.

While we can't give away any season secrets, we can say that this season is shaping up to be one the most wild yet. Join us on June 24th in watching the season premiere of the Real World Cancun.

Recently, a couple of Honeymooners at the hotel got in touch with me through MySpace. I was excited to hear that they had a great time during their honeymoon at ME Cancun. I asked if they'd be willing to write a guest blog for my MySpace page and thankfully, they were willing. Here it is:
**********



My husband and I married in November of 2008 and decided to stay in Cancun. We researched a few places and decided that Me Cancun was the hotel of choice. As soon as we arrived the aroma of the hotel was lovely as well as the ambiance.

We were immediately greeted by a staff member with a glass of champagne and towels to clean our hands. Our check in went smoothly and we were escorted to our room. The entire staff of Me Cancun was pleasant and extremely helpful. The hotel was clean. As soon as we dropped our luggage off, we took a walk by the pool. Amazing atmosphere. Just beautiful. The ocean was in walking distance of the pool. We then decided to have lunch at The Maxim Beach restaurant. Service and the food were great. Everyone was so polite. We had the breakfast buffet every morning and we were never disappointed. We sat by the pool on the bali beds every morning and around 1pm the DJ came out. Great music. We had dinner inside the hotel a few nights and again everything was perfect. Our favorite restaurant was the Silk Asian Bistro. The sushi was amazing. After dinner, we took a walk over to the bar for a few drinks. The drinks were very good! Our last day there, my husband and I decided to get massages outside by ocean. The massages were amazing and extremely relaxing. It was the perfect way to end our stay.

During our stay, the hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. There is nothing bad to say about this hotel. My husband and I had a great and relaxing honeymoon by staying at Me Cancun. Hands down ME Cancun is the friendliest, best and cleanest hotel that I have ever stayed at. There is no doubt that we will go back there again.

Thank you,
Cat D.

I have to admit, 2008 came and went in a flash and I'm still in shock. It was a fun and hectic year which I can't recall everything as clearly and I'd like to, but at least the good times are clearly in focus.

Between the 2nd Annual Cancun Film Festival, the Flowers, Fashion, Art and Music Exposition, Peninsular Fashion Show, and the many other late nights, 2008 was busy year.

Closing the year, we had our annual New Year's Eve Party. In 2008, we called this event the High Party and about 750 guests joined us at ME Cancun for dinner and the after party.



So far, 2009 looks like it's going to be even better. We're in the planning stages of several big events which announce as we finalize the details. Happy New Year!

Last Friday, we had the final event from the Flowers, Fashion, Art and Music Exposition at ME Cancun. Between the exhibits, music, flowers and catwalk, the event was a great success. This year, the exposition featured works from Horacio Cardenas, Alexandra Margain and Erika Flores.

I've gathered a few photos and video shot at the event, some of which is in Spanish. Enjoy!
