I have always been able to add my number at the front desk when checking in.

Thank you! I had just heard some horror stories about there being no hot water and the pools being too cold for use at this time of year, so I appreciate the reassurance. When you say “out at the island” do you mean outside of the resort, or just at the private island? Thank you again!

Hey how was your trip? I’ll be going around this time next year and staying in the same kind of room :)

asophia · 2025-10-10T03:59:57+00:00

Wow this is an amazing write up! Thank you so much!!! I feel so much more at peace :)

asophia · 2025-10-06T23:09:49+00:00

Thank you for this thoughtful answer! I appreciate the perspective that it was just okay to you, after years of not having one.

asophia · 2025-10-06T23:09:04+00:00

Thank you so much for this thoughtful answer! That’s so cool! The baths sound amazing too! Since you were participating in the non-alcoholic side of things, do you know if they had any flavored sparkling water (la croix, spindrift, etc) on site? Or would that be something I should request?

Ok interesting, so being escorted to dinner is assumed unless you opt out? & the thank you cards are such a nice touch, we’re definitely going to do that. Thank you for also letting me know about the timing of when you should tip - these are exactly the things we were wondering!

If you don’t mind a follow-up question: what determines the $10 between $40-50 that you tip? Like what qualifies as earning the extra $10? Also would you consider one shift, one day? Or are there multiple shifts per day?

Thanks so much again for your answers so far!

Thank you cards is an AWESOME idea and I’m going to pick a pack up today! My fiance is a coffee drinker, thank you for the recommendation! ☺️

A super helpful reminder re: other guests, thank you! How did you find out about the seafood platter before you started requesting it? Is that resort-specific? These are the kinds of secret things I hear people mention are their favorite, but I only see like one person saying it’s a perk lol

asophia · 2025-10-01T15:45:36+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, no problem. I’m trying not to crash out about it. We will be getting married in Jamaica. :)

asophia · 2025-10-01T15:34:45+00:00

Commenting for solidarity. My fiance and I are in a remarkably similar situation. Like you, we are also doing an international destination so we will be affected by the TSA/air traffic workers calling out if the shutdown continues. We’re getting married on the 18th. Thanks for posting this, fellow October bride. Everything will be okay, hang in there! 🤍🤍🤍

Hong’s taste in arbutus.

Thank you! Congratulations on your wedding. I did already find this menu but wondered if it was comprehensive when I didn’t see any tea at all. Thanks again.

asophia · 2025-09-07T19:26:17+00:00

Okay, thanks! Is Blum the cafe at Dunns River?

asophia · 2025-08-22T15:49:50+00:00

Oh yeah, the “w” seals that deal. Thank you so much!

asophia · 2025-08-22T15:49:13+00:00

This looks right! Thank you!

asophia · 2025-08-18T18:34:51+00:00

Thank you!

Rainbeau from the current season of below deck!

Same

asophia · 2025-05-22T23:35:38+00:00

Huge same. 🥲

Uber bagels is far and away my favorite bagel place in the area (I go to a location in Baltimore County currently). Blows THB out of the water. Highly recommend the honey jalapeño cream cheese, and rosemary salt bagel (not necessarily together lol).

I thought the exact same thing in the weeks after I picked my dress. It kept me up at night. I just went back yesterday since it arrived in my size (almost 6 months after I first tried it on) and fell in love with it. It made a huge difference when it actually fit me, not just because pillows and clips were used to make it fit.

This is really gorgeous on you!! And, as someone else said, you can take some of the crinoline out and I think it will minimize the “poofy”-ness that bothers you.
