Dreams Riviera Cancun opens with fanfare and great opening rates

First Guests at Dreams Riviera Cancun Honored During Opening Day Celebrations Patricia Miller, Madeline Evenson, Teresa Paglione and Kathleen Westcoat arrive as Dreams Riviera Cancun’s first guests on Oct. 1, 2009. The group arrived from Baltimore, MD on a Girlfriend Getaway, a package offered at all Dreams Resorts & Spas. The foursome, shown above, took part in the ceremonial ribbon cutting to officially open the resort. Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort & Spa, Dreams Resorts & Spas’ newest property located next to the charming beachfront town of Puerto Morelos, celebrated its grand opening on October 1, 2009. The first guests were personally greeted in the lobby by the entire resort staff and were each presented with bouquets of exotic tropical flowers before being invited to participate in the ceremonial ribbon cutting while a 12-piece Mexican mariachi band serenaded their arrival. Opening day festivities continued into the night as guests were invited to an unforgettable evening under the stars. Guests dined on gourmet dishes prepared by Dreams Rivera Cancun’s Executive Chef Carlos Brioars while listening to the cool sounds of live jazz by James Mclean of International Platters. The celebration was topped off by the heart-racing performance of ITZAES, a traditional Mexican dance troupe that fuses fire dancing with live drum beats.
