The resort has a number of high-volume events throughout the year, such as conferences, events, film shoots, tourism activations, cruise ship arrivals and large group bookings that can increase the level of guests on the island at any given time. While we reserve some inventory of tours and activities for in-house guests on these days, some of the activities may be limited in availability due to high demand.
To avoid disappointment, we encourage guests to book these activities on days other than the days the cruise ships visit. The resort reserves the right to activate high-volume visitation events at any time without notice, but will make efforts to minimize disruption to guest services and access during these times.
