Easter week activities 2007
Easter Week is one of busiest parts of the year at the resort, just like in other beach hotspots in the country. Known as "Semana Santa" in Spanish, the holy week is one big party on the beach for much of the local population.
For Easter Week 2007, Isla de Oro's administration has organized an extensive program of recreational activities and entertainment. Print out the program so you know what happens when and where!
TUESDAY: APRIL 3, 2007 - AND THROUGHOUT THE WEEK
The "Big Blue Party" - La Gran Fiesta Azul - is sponsored by Polar Beer and provided to Isla de Oro's guests and residents free of charge.
Polar will be partly on the beach and partly inside the gated Isla de Oro grounds of the resort itself, with the Big Blue Party starting on Tuesday and continuing until Sunday. The ongoing beach party features "Chicas Polar" (Polar Girls), games, competitions, music, dancing, lotteries, hundreds of gifts and prizes, and plenty of surprises. Free until the end of the week at various hours throughout the day.

CLUB SECURITY AND POLICE PRESENCE
With the added number of guests, we have hired extra temporary security staff so there will usually always be a guard at all entrances as well as circulating the grounds.
In addition, one of our neighbors - Chris Abbey - has arranged with the local state police to supply a fulltime patrol from Thursday to Sunday inclusive. The Miranda Police (Policia de Miranda) will have a uniformed detail assigned to the beach club April 5 to 8, with a commanding officer residing from April 4 onwards.
A state police officer, head of police Comisario Victor Diamante, will be living on the premises in Apartment #523 (Fifth floor, tower 2) which has been provided for the police department's use by Chris Abbey free of charge.
The club thanks Chris for his collaboration and help in arranging official police protection with uniformed patrols for our security. If any neighbor needs help from the Miranda State Police, please go to unit no. 523 or seek out one of the uniformed officers present at the club.
UPDATE:
Easter Week has now ended, and it was a huge success!
