Travel Tips   


  1. •When packing, place your passport, air tickets, travel insurance documents, contact numbers and any other important information in a pouch that's easily accessible, and carry it with you on your flights. Once you've arrived at your destination keep these documents in a safe place.


  1. •If you expect to arrive at the resort before the designated check-in time, pack your swimsuit, sunscreen, flip-flops and other beach gear in a carry-on bag. If your room isn't ready when you arrive, at least you can still hit the beach or pool. The front desk will store your suitcases for you until you can check in. Check in is usually 3pm, check out is noon.


  1. •Pack dressier clothes for a nice dinner and make reservations the day you arrive for ideal time, during sunset etc.


  1. •Bring a light jacket or sweater -- sometimes evening breezes off the water can be cool.


  1. •Sunscreen with a high SPF is a necessity in tropical climates. Consider bringing a hat or visor as well, and don't forget the sunglasses. If you expect to do any hiking, you might also add insect repellent to the list.


  1. •Scuba divers should bring their diving certification card.


  1. •Bring plenty of camera film or memory cards and extra camera batteries.

  2. •

  3. •Pack an extra pair of contacts or glasses.


  1. •Put prescription medicines in your carry-on bag, in case your checked luggage is delayed.


  1. •Pack a few of your favorite DVDs if your room has a DVD player. Many resorts are adding iPod docks to their in-room amenities as well, so load up your iPod with your favorite vacation tunes and bring that along too.


  1. •If you have a laptop computer and you want to stay connected to home or work, find out if your hotel has in-room or wireless Internet access. Always carry your laptop onboard your flights.

      Pack for children:

    • One pair of sneakers

    • Socks for the sneakers

    • One pair of sandals (preferably good walking sandals)

    • A sweatshirt or long-sleeved shirt and hat

    • Light jacket

    • Several pairs of long pants or leggings

    • T-shirts, shorts (cotton is best)

    • Bathing suit

    • Baby wipes (these come in handy out on the beach or anywhere, and not just for the kids)

    • Sunscreen, SPF 30-50

    • If your child weighs less than 50 pounds and you plan to rent a car, you can either bring a children's car seat

       or booster seat, or arrange to get one through your car rental company.

    • If your child is younger than 5, we recommend bringing a stroller or baby backpack for walking, hiking and/

       or sightseeing.
