Tips
- If bringing traveler’s checks, keep the serial number of the checks in a safe place and cross off each one as you use them.
- Bring some cash for tipping the wait staff/bartenders. Gratituities are included in the room price, so it’s not necessary but they appreciate it.
- Make photocopies of your passport and drivers license and store in a different place than your originals.
- Bug spray for those pesky mosquitoes.
- Travel with sun screen and swim suit in your carry on as many rooms are not available when you first arrive.
Passports are required. If you need to apply for a passport or renew one, I have included the links, for your convenience, to the sites for information on the fees as well as an online form.
