Looking for advice from the veterans of the resort...

Also remember, the use of a credit card does many things:
you don't have to carry a lot of cash,
you get the exact price, no exchange penalty
the bank usually will give you the best rate for the week
you get your points for the use of the card!!

We have found very little use for exchanging.
Why buy the booze unless you have a very particular taste. You have already paid for it!!!

We always take our clothes, important things in the carry on and we check one bag with shampoos, gel, extra clothing, We always plenty of room!
