1. Select a room on the reservation form and input your exact travel dates. Please include the full legal names of all guests staying in the room as they appear on their passports (or will appear–passport numbers aren’t required to book). Please verify all of your info, dates prior to submitting.  Please ensure that you include the cell number that you will have with you on the vacation so that the transfer company can communicate with you if necessary.

2. Submit the reservation form. Please note this doesn’t book the vacation & charge your card.  It just sends the info over to the D’Amico Travel Team and your reservation will be emailed to you within 3 business days for review and approval PRIOR to placing your deposit.  It’s best if you include your credit card info in your reservation form so that you don’t have to fill out a payment form right after.  Your card will not be charged until all guests using separate credit cards approve their invoice.

3. The invoice will be sent to you for final approval within 3 business days of submitting the form. Please approve the invoice the same day, which authorizes your non-refundable deposit for the room.  Your room isn’t reserved until the invoice is approved and your deposit has been placed.

4.  If the room you want is no longer available, please select “Custom” & place a note in the comments indicating the room that you want.  It will be requested from the resort which typically takes about 10 business days.  Once it’s confirmed you will receive an invoice to review/approve.

5.  The cost of the travel insurance is due at the time of deposit if you’re purchasing this option and is in addition to your deposit for the resort.  Insurance is nonrefundable.

Please check your spam for an email from D’Amico Travel.  If you still don’t see it, please contact us.

If guests sharing a room are paying with a separate credit card, each guest should fill out their own form & indicate the name of their roommate(s) in the notes section.

If your room category name specifies the bedding (ex. Jr Suite King or Jr Suite Double), then you will get that type, but many room categories don’t specify.  We will note your special requests for bedding, and while the hotel will do their best to accommodate, requests are not guaranteed.  Ultimately the resort assigns rooms upon check-in. REQUESTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED. If you do not receive the bedding you requested, please work with hotel management. However, there due to a complex inventory management system at most resorts, there may not be a room with the bedding type requested in the category/dates reserved.

We will be happy to request the room from the resort, which will take approximately 10 business days.  As long as the resort has the room available, they will typically turn the room over to the group.  It just takes a little time for them to do the transfer and load it in our system, so we can book it for you. This will take approximately 10 business days (some times more, sometimes less.) Group rates are not guaranteed for deviations from the block at hotel’s discretion.

We always request that our groups are placed in close proximity, however the resort is unable to guarantee room location until check in due to complex inventory system. Location of rooms also depend on the room category type. If you are booking a category that is not located in the same building or area of the resort as others in the group, the hotel would not be able to put you next to each other. An example would be if one party is in a preferred level of service and the other is not- it would not be possible for rooms to be assigned next to each other.

Anytime you want to make a payment towards your reservation, please fill out this payment form & your payment will be processed within 3 business days. Keep in mind it is not an automatic withdraw and will manually be processed.

The invoice total is for everyone in the room.  It is each guests’ responsibility to keep track of what they owe for their portion of the room and submit their payments accordingly.

​

Yes, it does.  If there were two adults in the room, the cost will go from a double to a single rate. The rate for a single person is generally higher than that of a double occupancy room, so in that case the person remaining will owe the difference in room rate.

Changes can be made up until final payment.  A $25 non-refundable change penalty is assessed for each change made to the reservation. Change requests must be submitted at least 7 days prior to final payment or changes may be subject to additional penalties.

Rooms will be offered at the group rate until the booking date.  At that point, the rooms will be released back to the resort, but if you decide to book after the booking deadline, we’re happy to request the room for you so that you’re included with the group.  The pricing/availability will be at the current rates.

Yes, but they will pay the United Staes rates offered for the group.

Your deposit is non-refundable and after your final payment date, the payment in full is non-refundable. Travel insurance is highly recommended to help protect your vacation investment. Travel insurance, like all insurance policies that exist , is nonrefundable.

Roundtrip airport transfers (the ride between the airport and hotel) are a service we include with your room package. To confirm this service for you, we must submit a complete list of passengers and flights to the transfer company at least 60 days prior to travel. We will be sending you emails about this so you can submit your flight itinerary to us. The transfers included will pick you up at the airport on the day we have you checking in at the resort and bring you back to the airport on the day we have you checking out. Deviations to dates and vehicle upgrades are available for an additional cost.

This coverage is strongly recommended, especially when traveling internationally. The resort won’t refund you because of flight delays/cancellations, illness, and other miscellaneous reasons.  A quote will be provided once your reservation form is submitted. The quote & policy info will be sent to you for review prior to receiving the invoice. Once insurance is purchased, it is non-refundable.  If you have specific questions regarding coverage, please contact the insurance company directly.

Everyone including children need a valid passport book to travel with at least six months left prior to the passport expiration.
