~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Since all the chairs will ultimately already be taken I suggest that you put your stuff on a chair right then to reserve for the following day.
Most resorts have your room number on the backside of your bracelet, not sure if Temptations does this or not? I know RIU and Iberostars do.
Usually day 2 is my curse day but as a first timer i am nervous about day 1. Lol. I may steal hortons idea and have my room number written on me for the week incase im found.
I don’t think there is a room number on them but heck I am typically a bit tipsy often But that isn’t a bad idea! I know the ink washes off after a while in the pool and jacuzzi !
We have arrived in the afternoon several times. The first thing we do is stop at the buffet and get a small bite to eat. Then to the sexy pool for a couple of hours. Then take a short nap before dinner. After dinner its party time. After traveling a half hour nap makes the night go way better.
We arrive later in the afternoon as well, 4:30pm on December 16th to be exact...just wondering what we can expect when we arrive on grounds?
Check in takes some time, say 1 hour by the time you get your stuff. Keep a small backpack type with swim wear so you can get right to the action. You'll have a great time.
Our policy for the first day is not to waste a second. Get through your check-in and have whatever you "need" for the pool ready to go in a bag. Everything else, whether you get a room right away or if it sits with the bell boys will be just fine unpacked. Obvious wardrobe change for dinner/evening... but again, don't waste a second "unpacking".
