Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

What was your total spend roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

I was there in February and prices were about average. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: avoid weekends.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Spot on with the prices. Matches what I paid recently.

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.
