yep that's what I said - it is up to ME where I want to spend my money or not.
The point is that $3.00 is overpriced for a bottle of water.

??? Xtabi is an amazing place and although a bit more upscale than some other stops -prices are going fluctuate among all the different places on West End.....this doesn't seem unreasonable at all and I don't believe staff would have done anything maliciously - I usually ask for change if I need it but I think this must have been just a mis-communication. Doesn't seem fair to trash this business publically when everyone struggles so hard to survive economically in Jamaica. I hope you will give them a second chance for your business. It is a very special property.

thank you for the information...will cross Xtabi off my list sorry about the over charging isssues the driver should tell the people the prices & be posted otherwise they are trying to rip you off
thread title should be a stop...not some stops.
"At least come by and offer me my change"
Absolutely agree! otherwise it's shady, and I shouldn't have to ask for my change - I should be given the opportunity to say "keep the change"
This thread is a joke!
Rise early, treat everyday as though it's your last and your last day as it's your first.
I enjoyed spending time at Xtabi, but how can a property be special? or "very special"? Yes, it's a nice place and has a beautiful view, and I really like the caves... and it may even hold a special place in your heart... but it's just a bar, and at least one person has been shortchanged. Could it be that drunk people who show up are taken advantage of? I know I stop worrying so much about what I spend when I've had a couple drinks... That's human nature... and bartenders know this. So easy to say, "whoops, sorry" when customers actually ask for their change, you know?Originally Posted by Sweetness
To make myself clear, I am NOT saying "Xtabi takes advantage of people and steals their change", I am saying it happened to one person, they weren't happy and said something about it, and it's not a reason to attack her or make excuses for the venue. It happened, once or hundreds of times, who knows?
why is that? Because you don't agree with something it shouldn't be discussed at all? Because you're wealthy and like to spend more than necessary? You enjoy the vague feeling of "are they taking advantage of me?" when you travel?
Who thinks a local wouldn't ask for their change? Show of hands, LOL!
We are the one's who decide who gets tipped and how much, (except the restaurant bill) not the server, whether we are locals or tourists.
