we have stayed there before on the ocean side, we will be arriving there again on the 17th, we have cottage 3 4 on the ocean side, we stayred there before and loved it, the week before we get to Xtabi we will be staying at the Rondel village on the beach which is another place we have came to love over the years have a great trip
cottage # 4 that is
I love visiting Xtabi but to stay there might add up because it's hard to resist those $6 dirty bananas .... If you factor in the price of food (expensive and not over-sized portions) and drinks (and transpo if you want to go to different restaurants), you could be in for some sticker shock upon checkout .....
Hmm, is there a better option then, price-wise?
We bring a cooler on wheels (makes it easy to pull through the airport) and pack stuff in it that we are really planning on leaving in JA.. Buy beer at the Hi-Lo and get ice from the grounds keeper in the morning. That way your bar tab won't run so high. There are plenty of places to eat well within walking distance from Xtabi that are less expensive. We either give the cooler to someone or use to off-set our fee for the ride back to the airport.Originally Posted by tfw73

Xtabi ROCKS!!! Awesome in every respect!!
Just Natural is next door and has great meals at incredible prices!
We stayed in the gardenside superior rooms at Xtabi back in 08. If you go to my profile, the last 2 pictures in my 2008 album are of the room. I think there are also a few pictures from our balcony view. We had a wonderful time and thought the rooms were great. Very basic, but they were very clean.
Great idea, T & A. We always bring a soft cooler and buy stuff so our tab won't be that high, too. Is it easy to travel with the hard cooler?
Ya mon, no problem with the hard cooler(as long as it has wheels and a handle for pulling).
You just have make sure it's secure and they can open it and secure it again as it goes as checked luggage. The first year we duct taped it shut and put a half a roll in the cooler for them to tape it back up with. The second time I had a couple of one inch wide nylon straps that we used. When we got to JA it was ok but one of the straps had broke...So next time it's back to the duct tape. Oh, and you will more than likely have to go through the "declare" line as they will want to have a look inside, at least I had to

T&A
Beer ect. from the Chinyman is way cheaper than Hi-lo and they're both in the same neighborhood.
Two across from Scotia Bank, one up by Canoe & Sun Island outlet store ( also a very cheap place for souvenir T-shirts and that ilk).
Just a thought.
