The couple is working with me, Ashley Morris at Alpaca Your Bags Travel, to make this trip fun and stress free. Please read the important information below and contact me to complete your booking and join us!

Entering Jamaica: Effective April 16, 2022, Jamaica no longer requires a negative covid test to enter the country.  This is of course subject to change.  For the latest, visit https://www.visitjamaica.com/jamaica-cares/

Returning to the US: Since January 2021, the USA *does* requires a negative COVID test to re-enter the US after international travel.

Nearly every resort provides affordable testing on-site for guests. We will share more information about how to schedule this test when you are closer to travel. Vaccinations do not exempt anyone from testing, though this could change. We will keep you posted!

If you'd like to read more about this requirement, please visit:  https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/testing-international-air-travelers.html

Yes, all international travelers are required to have a passport, including infants and children. To learn more about the application process, please visit the  U.S. Department of State website.

The passport card or enhanced drivers license is NOT valid for air travel. The only acceptable document is the passport book.

If you already have a passport, please check the expiration date. The U.S. State Department recommends that international travelers have 6 months of validity on their passport after their return trip date.

We recommend checking your passport now to see if you need to renew - please don't wait until the last minute!

Because group reservations at all inclusive resorts are pre-paid and non-refundable, travel insurance is encouraged to protect your investment.  Life is unpredictable; plans can change.

The cost of insurance is based on your age, your state of residency and the total cost of your trip. Due to this, travel insurance prices will be quoted for each individual guest.

• Without insurance, there are no refunds should your plans change
• Without insurance, you will also not have any medical coverage for mishaps or catastrophic events.
• Your US health insurance will likely not work outside of the United States; please read the FAQ below for more detail.

Absolutely! ​If you would like to stay for dates before or after this date window, that is no problemo!

Please include your requested dates in your reservation form and I will confirm availability! Note: rates and availability outside the room block dates may differ from our group rates quoted here.

Yes!  Initial deposits are due on August 10, 2022. The required deposit is $100 per adult. If the optional travel insurance is included, insurance must be paid with the trip deposit.

There are no set requirements for payments, as long as final payments are made by the deadline.  Final payments are due on December 7, 2022.

Air is not included. If you book your own air, please forward us your airline confirmation email by January 11, 2023 to schedule your included transportation. Guests who do not send their air details by this deadline will forfeit their included transportation.

Yes! Please coordinate with your roommate and designate ONE person to fill out the reservation form.

Reservation forms should be one per ROOM, not one per person. When I get your form, I will email both of you and explain next steps.

If you and your roommate live at different addresses, please make sure to include the second passenger's contact info. This can go in the notes field.

While the group requests that you book your room with the group, you are welcome to book your own airfare. ​

Due to contract deadlines, we recommend booking your hotel room as early as possible and adding air when you're ready.

If you book your own air, please forward your air confirmation email to me no later than January 11, 2023.  This is how we schedule your transportation pick up at your destination. The best airport option for this hotel is CUN (Cancun International airport).

Guests who do not submit their air information by the deadline will forfeit their included transfers.

If you would like assistance with air, we are happy to help! There is a $50 ticketing fee included in all of our air quotes.

This means that the group has paid a deposit to pre-reserve rooms for your group.

• The couple has signed a contract with the resort and has committed to a minimum number of rooms
• Only rooms booked with Alpaca Your Bags Travel count toward this contract
• The resort has a 3 night minimum stay requirement, but you are welcome to  come earlier or stay later!
• We have reserved several different room types for you to choose from. Descriptions follow this FAQ

The couple has paid a deposit to pre-reserve rooms for your group. They have a group contract that allows them to offer additional benefits for their guests.

The group kindly asks that you book your hotel within our designated group contract here at Alpaca Your Bags Travel.

There are several reasons why you should honor the group's wishes and book the hotel portion with the group:

• The group has worked with me to negotiate a contract for the ENTIRE group. This includes a special set rate and included transportation.
• Groups are given priority status at the resort, so you might miss out on some VIP treatment.
• Groups are given priority room assignments, so if you book directly, you're likely getting a room that couldn't be sold to a group. It will be leftover inventory, probably in a undesirable location away from everyone else.
• Groups are given priority in terms of an oversold situation. If the hotel over sells, your group is protected but his reservation is not. You could be walked to another location.

Guests who do not book within the group contract unfortunately:

• Will not get the group rates
• Will have to pay up front vs. over time.
• Will not receive any pre-departure, trip support or post-trip support from me.
• Unfortunately I cannot assist with travel arrangements made outside of the group, nor can I assist in the event of an emergency.
• Will be required to pay a day pass on property to attend wedding events. Note: Day pass sales are not guaranteed and are extremely limited due to covid occupancy restrictions.
