Q + A

Here are few travel tips!


1- Sunscreen and bug spray! Bring it!


2- Cash for bonus tips. The resort is all-inclusive so you do NOT have to tip, but if you feel so inclined you are welcome too. We typically bring $1, and $5 in USD to tip.


3- The resort provides beach towels so no need to bring your own.


4-Not required- but Shane and Sami usually bring small yetis to keep our drinks cold! We also bring a small amount of dish soap to wash them in the room.


5- Sunglasses, hats, sun shirts!


6- Please bring cash to tip the Captain/Crew and bartenders on the Catamarans. $10 per person should be plenty for the Captain/Crew! A couple bucks for the bartenders is perfect!


6- If you have any questions please call Sami or Shane. We are happy to help!
