Now we are going in just a few weeks, and we were both very excited, and well, we have discussed trying the beach. She is open to it but a little nervous because she is a curvy woman. After 3 kids ....for the gentleman out there, it seems like they are more comfortable with trying it. But any advice for a first timer. Btw this community rocks

We are looking at a 10 day stay. Our original thought was to split between SS and Negril but the 4+ hour transfer seems like a waste. So we are thinking of a split stay between SS and TI. Thank you in advance!

Planning a trip for my wife and I. While we aren’t party people, we occasionally like to stay out and dance. We’ve been to Swept Away years ago and they had/have a dance club. I don’t see anything similar at SS. Is there somewhere that there is dancing in the evening?

AN beach prep?

So for all you experienced beach goers ...do you usually try and lose weight, shave, tan or hit the gym a little more before vacation? Im a lil curvy after 3 kids and am trying to cut a few pounds just for confidence. Hubby isnt to worried about weight but debating shaving for etiquette. Thanks everyone!

Chair saving

Going to CSA for our first time in August and I have been seeing several posts lately in the AI sub about people getting up so early just to save a chair. Is this a real issue?? We are in our late 30’s with young kids and rarely travel without them. I love a slow morning and sleeping in, if I want a chair on the beach and a slow morning am I being unrealistic?

Also would love any first time advice or tips!

Heading to CN on Wednesday. We are not planning to check bags. How strict is the 3-1-1 liquids rule in Jamaica? When I travel domestic TSA is usually not very strict but not sure about International? Is the quart size clear bag (one per person) adhered to? Will they throw it out if it doesn't fit in the quart size bag?

Thanks in advance!

Tower Isle is a top contender for our honeymoon. However I've seen some reviews that there is not much night life, and the resort is dead quiet by 10pm. We are not big partiers by any means, but we like to stay up a little late on vacation, have some drinks/snack, listen to music, etc. Can anyone provide some insight on the night life aspect? This is really the only "downside" I've seen for us with Tower Isle!

First day thoughts

Arrived at CSS. The grounds are lovely as usual and staff is pleasant. I’m not a complainer but why does the chicken soup have bones in it? And the soda is the flattest I’ve ever had a restaurant. The sauce on my husband’s steak was so salty he couldn’t eat it. Hoping things improve.

How frequently do shuttles leave for MBJ? If our departure flight is an hour later will we leave the resort an hour later?

Trying to decide on flights and wondering if we can squeeze an extra hour on the beach with a later departure flight? Or if we’ll just sit at the airport longer?
I know they get you there 3 hours before departure and leave CSA ~2 hours before that.
Does anyone know if the shuttles run hourly or what?
Thanks
