While awaiting your test result, you are free to move around the hotel and enjoy the restaurant and other facilities, with the temporary exception of The Spa, gym, boutique and beach.  Test results are expected within 24 hours. For the time period while awaiting your test result, you must remain on property and after you receive your negative result you are free to explore the island.

Unvaccinated Guests

Housekeeping services are not permitted during this period, however any required supplies or amenities can be delivered. The PCR test, at a cost of U.S.$175.00, can be carried out at the hotel for your convenience. Test results are expected within 24 hours.

Family Travel

Some guests may be travelling with children who may not have been vaccinated.  Children under 18 years, travelling with fully vaccinated guardians will be allowed to adhere to the same guidelines as their fully vaccinated guardians.

If a fully vaccinated adult guest is travelling with an unvaccinated adult guest, 18 years and older, and they choose not to be separated, then the rules applied to the unvaccinated guest, will also apply to the fully vaccinated guest.
