Re: Checking in from Travellers
When I was last there (2014? 2015? who can remember?) they had it set up as a buffet breakfast, and I didn't have to wear a bracelet. I HATE wearing those. I remember eggs, ackee and saltfish, calaloo, toast, some fruit, porridge, coffee and tea. I don't remember bacon, sausage, etc being on the buffet.
There was definitely ackee and saltfish, I remember very well because I wasn't paying much attention to what I was shovelling into my mouth, and got what was basically an entire scotch bonnet pepper. Hottest thing I've ever eaten, and since I wasn't expecting it it was one hell of a surprise.

Crusher, bacon was $3us.
Harry, yeah, was expecting the buffet set up too. I can appreciate that they may be trying to cut down on food waste.
Agree with you on not wanting to wear the bracelet. I cover it up when I leave the property.

Walk a few feet and go to Beach House Villas. I had their Jamaican breakfast in May for $5.00. It was great. :)
Re: Checking in from Travellers
Several places include breakfast in their rate, no BS scenario like this one to deal with. Country Country is a good example and you can get a room there for just north of $100 on occasion using an OTA. Nicer beach and area as well.....
Re: Checking in from Travellers
Not my intention to sully their name, just sharing a funny story.
I got a great deal on the room, even if there wasn't an egg or two included.
Re: Checking in from Travellers
We are staying at Travellers in April. Probably a stupid question, but out of curiosity, can you forgo the bracelet and just pay cash for what you want to eat? I hate wearing those things, and don't like to advertise where I am staying.
Re: Checking in from Travellers
We just put it around our room key and stuck it in my beach bag...never had to wear it. Just showed it for breakfast.

Re: Checking in from Travellers
They usually have a Buffet for breakfast incl people.
Weird
Re: Checking in from Travellers
Another chapter from adventures in Travellers breakfast...
Leaving Travellers today and headed down to Firefly.
Travellers has a $30us fee imposed for "late" checkouts, past the 11 checkout time. Strange how "island time" works in one direction.
I was not getting hit with that so was up and out by ten. At the front desk, they wanted to cut the breakfast bracelet. I told them I haden't eaten yet. The said today wasn't included. I told them that doesn't make sense. I paid for three nights, should I not get three breakfast? Desk guy looks very puzzled by this logic. So much so that he had to call a manager to ask. The manager gave approval for today's two eggs.
Again, thankful for everything, I'd just rather not have to make a case for things that should be straight forward.
