wow, it looks pretty nice, I am looking for a place in the hotel zone for a Dental vacation stay, looking at all inclusive as I don't want to hunt for food, not sure what I will be able to eat. probably won't be drinking much either. Just going to chill on the beach or near it to recover. I have looked into this place. I own a Travel agency and their agency rates were actually the same or more than what I can get retail on my own as a regular customer :-( I will be filming the experience so what every hotel I can get will get free promos lol.

Thank you, appreciate your wonderful tour. Have a question I notice the attire signs for the restaurants. I wonder if there any restaurants that need formal attire or book in?

@WherewegoingNext Жыл бұрын

No we don’t see this enforced at all. Men wear nice shorts and flip flops/ sandals and they’re fine 👍🏻 I think they just don’t want you wearing beach wear.

We’ve used Canada Transfers to shuttle us from the airport (Google them and you can book it online) or if you book a vacation “package” through Expedia or TripCentral, you will have transportation included in the package price (a large coach bus will transport you to your hotel)
