Hi All,

I'm here at BRB and just finished today visiting schools, windsor's girls home Infirmary etc with donations. What a wonderful experience for my boys and I. OK they would have prefered to be by the pool drinking Red stripe but that's another matter. So are there any questions out there that you would like answered? I'm here and will check in again tomorrow so ask away.

We're in a Ocean View plunge pool room and our son is in a regular room. We arrived tuesday afternoon and as of yet I have not even been to the pool to relax but am so jazzed by all the happy faces I've seen. I'm not wild about the new rooms and don't think at this point they are worth the extra money. The staff is fantistic and lot's of fun. Come and enjoy.

By for now

Dawna

hope you are having a great time--is runaway bay an area where you can walk around the town to check out your surroundings or would it not be safe to do this?

Hi Dawna! I hope you are having a great time! I have to wait until the end of May to enjoy my stay! Seems so far away. I just have a quick question do they have bottled water available at the resort or does that cost extra? Just wondering because I like to carry a bottle with me if I go on any tours or I wander off the resort. Thanks! One more quuestion does the resort provide any off site tours like shopping? Just curious if I can wait to get their and then decide what I want to do off site. Thanks and have a great vacation and I hope the weather is cooperating for you!

Paula

Hi Paula,

Yes if you have a fridge in your room then it's stocked every day with 4 beer 4 soda and 4 water. if you want to collect then make sure you empty it daily and they'll refill. They will not add more beer though

Hi Dawna,

Are the 1 bedroom suites on the ends of the new building-on each floor or only the first floor?

Hope you are enjoying yourself!!!
