Best Spring Break Spot for Greeks

White_Chocolate · #1 12-16-2002, 12:37 PM

we're trying to plan our trip for spring break 2003. last year, we were booking a cruise and half of the people forgot about it so we decided to stick to road trips and the beach.

so, where is the spot that mostly likely most of the GREEKS will be?
and when is everyone's spring break?

ours is mar 23-29. . .

CANCUN, BABY!!!!!!!!

Last year this is where most of my house went. It can't be beat as far as beautiful clear water and nightlife is concerned.....they have some of the top 10 clubs in the world. Look up Dady O's/ Dady Rock on the web for convincing.

This will be my 13th year going down there, my family has a timeshare. I'll be there the same time as you!

My only complaint would be that there seems to be a lot more kids on their senior spring break there, but if you go to the right clubs its easy to see which ones attract an older crowd. (Hey I'm only 20 so i guess I can't say anything.) Now that I'm in a sorority I've met some really cool Greeks down there every year, too.

Safety/ crime is so not a concern as long as you stay in a respectable place, the Oasis is like THE HOTEL to be at, MTV was there last year, but a lot of my friends like, didn't have a lock on the door, got stuff stolen, and one didn't have a door b/c it fell off the day we got there and never got fixed!

I know you said you wanted to do road trips and the beach, but if you go through Student Express they have packages starting at like 400, w/ airfare and all inclusive food.

Basically, it's like a second home to me so if anyone wants to know about any hotels or anything just ask!!

I'll have to agree with AXJules on this one. I went to Cancun two years ago and stayed at the Oasis...had an awesome time!! I went with a group of 11 (9 sisters and 2 close friends) and we always had something to do. The weather was great, the bars were lots of fun, and the beach was so beautiful!

**grumbles about spring break**
Know when MY spring break is??? Feburary 20,21. They're officially called "winter reading days".....
That's right - two days!!

I will never enjoy the rite which is "spring break". Professors even make assignments due those days or shortly after so that most people in my faculty just stay around and work....

PANAMA CITY BEACH!!!!!!!!!

The Birth of all great college Spring Breaks. After three years of never going on Spring Break, my sorority sisters and I wanted to go out with a bang! Panama City Beach was everything it promised to be. Trashy, wild and loads of fun. My friends and I literally met new people everywhere we went. That might just be the nature of Spring Break, but you certainly won't be disappointed if you go. People from all over the country flock to Panama City for Spring Break.

You can't beat South Padre! I've had more than my share of fun down there. Lounging on the beach during the day and partying in Mexico at night.

I've been to Cancun twice, but not during spring break.

I believe ours is the last week of March [if I'm not mistaken].

It'd be cool to go off somewhere just so I could party with my fellow college animals...but who needs to go away when it's Spring Break here all year round?

damasa · #11 12-17-2002, 08:37 PM

Cancun is ok, Panama City is crazy, can't wait to see what it's like in South Padre. That's the place myself and like ten or so brothers and some friends are going to call "spring break" this year.

I am a Pi Phi at NMSU and I know all my sisters are plaaning a trip to Puerto Penasco! Most of the talk in the Greek community is about last years trip their!

i went to cancun in 2000 and bahamas in 2001 and both were great spots BUT Cancun was sooo much great! The best place i've been to so far. Trying to to Miami this spring break. Anyone going there? my spring break is march 10-17, i believe

butterfly2001nc · #14 12-17-2002, 09:59 PM

okay, so that last post didn't make a lot of sense. Meant to say that CANCUN was soo much fun! I wanted to go again this year but no one seems to have any money. I'm trying to go to Miami this year. Hopefully, that all works out!

Last year about 20 of my sorority sisters went to Puerto Penasco aka Rocky Point! It was the best week, and it was cheap...only 120 dollars each for 5 days of us staying in a beach house. Lots of ASU greeks go here for spring break because its close and cheap, and you can go even at last minute. We'll probably end up there again, for my 3rd year in a row. Been to Mazatlan the year before I started college and that was beautiful and tons of fun too, but expensive. I spent atleast 1200 for a week.
