I am from Cape Cod. RM is so much nicer! You will love it. Please report back to us here or on FB
Welcome Stig,
Everything is included except for things like massages and other spa services. Tip: Don’t pay full price. Negotiate with the reps that walk around the pools.
Tonight’s dinner was at the Chang Thai restaurant at Kantenah. The shrimp from the tasting station was good but a little on the spicy side, as was the shrimp in the Pad Thai. My husband enjoys the 🌶, and I just picked around the 🌶. The service was great. The coconut creme brûlée was delicious. After dinner we checked out the chocolate bar at Hemingway’s, but we really were too full to take advantage of the options. We noticed there was even a gluten free cake as well as a lactose free cake.
The Rock show at the theatre was entertaining, but we decided not to stay through the entire performance.
We hope to get up early tomorrow to see the sunrise from our terrace.
Our vacation is winding down and we’re missing our grand babies.
Found this on another forum
“be very careful of greyline tranfers- we purchased round trip vouchers at airport – they lost our reservation – arrived and left without us an hour earlier than pick up time and failed to reimburse as promised for cab we had to take !”
All I can tell you is what I have read elsewhere. Expedia does not have a regular transfer company. They use third party so don’t know who you will get, if it is included (I have read that it is not and it is expensive as Expedia needs to get their %), if it is shared and if so how many people you have to share it with. It’s just not worth all of the unknowns to me. I once took a transfer that was included in a package and we waited at the airport for stragglers, then it took 2 1/2 hours with all the stops. Very annoying.
If anyone has experience with Expedia please post.
I hope to see you. I read yesterday that there is more shade at the Infiniti pool. I think they have staff helping with the umbrellas.
We are currently in Jamaica and have been for 10 days. As you can see from the pictures there is absolutely no sargassum at any of the beaches… in fact the water is sooooo clear you can stand and see the fish swimming. Each beach at the resort is a bit different. Las Brisas is fine white sand and the shallowest water. Coral beach is the adult beach with the courses sand. It is the smallest but also has bar service. Sunset beach is where all the activities are with golden sand and a medium course feel. We have been at each beach every morning at 8 am, no sargassum only a few leaves from the surrounding trees being picked up by staff. The clarity of the water surpasses both PC and RM considerably. Hope this help for all those who are questioning sargassum situation
Men must wear long pants to Chic Cabaret. While closed toes shoes are preferred nice sandals will be accepted.
When you find your favorite restaurant and tell them you’re coming for your last night and they do this for you. Already cried at the beach today, then this tipped me way over the edge!!!
Knowing you guys I wonder if you wouldn’t like the original buildings, but not sure. I liked having ocean views too so its hard to decide.
Be sure and tell Javier at AGI that you are an UP member fora discount.
OMG I am surprised you booked TRS as you love Kantenah!!! Now I have to book another trip.
I have been in 68 & 67 which had an ocean view and tub in room. We also loved the original buildings 69-71 which had the double jacuzzis on the deck and are very close to the Terazza pool (opened til midnight and heated).
Welcome Amy,
Best to ask for rooms on the rear of 68 as that back up to jungle and is private. You should bring repellant with Deet in it in case of mosquitoes in the evenings.
No beach bags provided. No bottle buggies. Many people bring their own Bubba Mugs to keep their drinks cold.
No there is not an on line list of bottles for the room. Ask your butler as some of the bottles may have a charge if you switch them out.
Here is where you will find a list of beer provided at the resort as well as cocktails, alcohol and non-alcohol. If you want something specific in your room fridge leave a note in the fridge with a small tip or ask your butler.
Make room requests one week ahead.
Happy Cinco de Mayo

🍸😁. This post is about the chic show at TRS. I purposely did not look at any of the videos regarding the show ( well maybe a glimpse) so that it would all be a surprise, and boy was it a surprise. The whole evening ( get there for 7.30 latest) to get the full experience, photo opportunity, drinks snacks etc. All I am going to say is this, it was one of the best evenings I have spent 3 and 1/2 hours of complete joy. That’s it end of post 😊
