Caribbean Junket for CU Volunteers and Board Members

The Credit Union National Association is holding its volunteer conference in Punta Cuna, Dominican Republic.

The conference started on January 28, 2018 and will be held at Hotel Melia Caribe Tropical.

Hotel room rate for a single occupancy is $200 per night or $360 per person per night for a double occupancy room.

The hotel advertises pristine beaches, a championship golf course, and casino.

The opening day of the conference has a half day snorkeling cruise for attendees and their guests.

[Update, an earlier version of this post had the room rates reversed for single versus double occupancy.]

    I guess San Diego wasn’t good enough.
    Why not Houston or Puerto Rico to help their economies and credit unions?
    Tax them.

    Hey Keith,

    Quick fact check for you. It was actually $200 a night for a single room which is less than the $280 per night for the ABA's Community Banker conference in Hawaii that has Waikiki's only salt water lagoon.

    Glad to see the ABA is going to Houston and Puerto Rico for their events to help those communities...O wait.....................
