That's what I was trying to get across not well obviously.
I wasn't talking about buildings or overturned chairs and broken windows. Structural damage has all been repaired. Although there beach front houses in Playa del Carmen. that have not been rebuilt and are no longer "beach front."

As you pointed out, some resorts lost their beaches; Royal Hawaiian I think is another that lost almost all.

Thanks for the hurricane history Redforever. You are right in that there is no problem with the beaches. Just they are smaller. In some cases, much smaller. My father was told the huge loss of sand was still from the storms of 2005, not from regular wind and water erosion.
