One of the best parts about an All-Inclusive Vacation is the fact that once you're
there, you won't need to spend another penny. However, should you decide to visit
some of the local attractions or take advantage of some of the outstanding bargains,
you will need money. Most merchants will accept US Dollars or traveler's checks,
as well as major credit cards.
All departing guests are required to pay a departure tax upon leaving the airport.
In some cases, the departure tax is already included on your airline ticket.
Please inquire if unsure.
Every room is equipped with a safe deposit box. We advise all guests to store
their jewelry, cash and other valuables including airline tickets and passports
in this secure place. The hotel cannot be responsible for lost items.
A registered nurse with regular office hours is on the property. In the event
of an emergency, a medical doctor is on call 24 hours a day.
110 volts throughout the Caribbean and most of Mexico. Hair dryers are provided
now is most all-inclusive rooms. Be sure to inquire prior to departure.
Pack light! The weather in the Caribbean is delightful all year long. Daytime
averages are 82°F, 28°C and nighttime temperatures are 72°F, 22°C.
Yes. A current passport or an original or certified copy of a birth certificate
issued by a government agency. A hospital-issued birth record is not sufficient
(along with a picture ID such as driver's license) is acceptable proof of citizenship
for US and Canadian citizens. All others must have passports.
If you a golf fanatic, you may want to bring your own clubs. Otherwise you
can rent them for a reasonable charge. Tennis racquets and balls are provided,
but if you play best with your own, bring it.
Tipping is simply not permitted at the hotels.
It's your vacation, so dress like it. We recommend light clothing and plenty
of shorts, swimsuits and cover-ups. However, the more formal restaurants may
require slacks and a coat for the gentlemen. Please see the individual hotel
descriptions for details. If you plan to play golf, tennis or workout, make
sure you have the appropriate attire.
At the resorts where SCUBA is included, the resorts will provide all necessary
instruction and gear to enjoy diving. If you are qualified, bring an international "C" card.
If not, you will have to take the swimming test and class like all novice divers.
All of the hotels we represent include transfers to and from the airport. After
you clear customs at the airport, proceed to the lobby area where the resorts
have transportation booths. But why drive when you can fly? In Jamaica, for
a reasonable charge, we can arrange flights from the Montego Bay airport to
Negril or Ocho Rios. These fast, convenient flights will get you to your hotel
sooner and give you a view of the island's breathtaking beauty.
It gets hot beneath the Caribbean sun, so we recommend you go prepared. Be
sure to bring strong protection from the sun as well as sun glasses and a hat.
