Do they have rafts for floating in the water or should I bring my own?
Bring your own. No floaties at all, but after you eat there for a week; you won't one!
I understand it is rocky going into the water (have water shoes packed) but is there a place on the beach where it is not so rocky?
There is a small cut out in the ironshore. I think it was behind the pool, but if the surf is up; it is highly reccommedned that you stay in the protected area.
How far of a walk to cemetery beach?
Too Far!! Take the "bus" or a rental car.
How casual or dressy for dinner.....don't want to pack a lot of casual dressy clothes if I don't have to
Only if you plan on eating dinner out should you pack something a bit nicer than shorts. All meals are very casual.
Where do you keep your valuables since there are no safes in the rooms....only taking costume jewlery but travel documents and stuff like that.
There are "safe deposit" like boxes in the lobby that you can put valuables in. We kept all ours and our laptop in the room without any problems.
Did you take the shuttle to Beach Club......I read it is sold but Lady Pamela said it is not.
We drove over to the Beach Club. It is nice but not as nice and friendly as SBR. We kept hearing conflicting reports from Lady Pamela - it's been sold, it's in the process of being sold, it is up for sale. take your pick!
Did you eat all meals at the resort or venture off some evenings?
We had dinner at the resort every night and were not disappointed!! The trimmings are all the basic stuff - veggies, potatoes, etc. but the entree was different everynight and fish was always offered. We had lunch out a couple of times. Definitely try Hoshawn's (sp?) Jerked Chicken. YUM!!
Did you rent a car....where did you go and if so, did you find it difficult to get around?
We did rent a car. We went all over the island. Rum Point, Botanical Gardens, SMB, Georgetown, etc. No problems at all. Just remember to stay on the left!!
Do they have Internet service you can use if needed?
Yes. There is internet service. Just ask at the front desk.
Are there a lot of children at the resort?
No, not many at all. i'd have to say there were only 3 or 4 kids. There were a few more when the cruise groups stopped by but they did not stay for very long. 1-2 hours.
How full was the resort this time of year?
It was not crowded at all!
Hope this helps!
Have a wonderful time.  |
