Cancellation Fees:
-Rooms can be cancelled up until 4 days prior to the arrival date for a $50 per person penalty charged by Vacay Vibes + a $25 penalty charged by the supplier. If cancelling the entire room within 3 days of the travel date, there will be a $50 per person penalty charged by Vacay Vibes + a resort penalty equal a 1nt room rate of the reservation total.
-If an individual is cancelling themselves out of a room, there will be a $50 penalty for that person. The room will then have to be changed to the accurate amount of people remaining in the room and will have to be ‘re-shopped’ at current rates, which can increase the price for those people in the room.

Travel Insurance:
Although the resort’s cancellation policy is flexible, travel insurance can protect you from any unexpected occurrences prior to or during travel.
VPP+ - $99/person (covering hotel only)
Includes cancel for any reason and offers a full cash refund (minus the cost of travel insurance). Must be added within 7 days of making your deposit.
VPP - $49/person (covering hotel only)
Includes cancel for any reason and offers a future travel credit (minus the cost of insurance). Your future travel credit for the flight & hotel must be booked through Vacation Express for a future trip to a destination that they offer. Must be added any time before the final payment date.
The cost of travel insurance is non-refundable once it has been added and must be paid for at the time of adding it to your reservation.
*the $50 per person cancellation fee still applies mentioned in the “cancellation fees” section to the left still applies even if travel insurance is purchased.
Payment Schedule:
$50/person Deposit - Due ASAP
Final Payment -- March 21st, 2025
prices are subject to change until all deposits from roommates are made. If adding insurance, the cost will be due at time of making your deposit.
*You are welcome to make payments at any time between the deposit date and the final payment date.
*a separate $25 USD per person “planning fee” will be charged at the time of making your deposit payment.
*Keep in mind that if you cancel yourself from the trip after it has been booked, it can still potentially effect the other people in the reservation, even if you have travel insurance. When the number of people in a reservation is changed, the process is to cancel the existing reservation and rebook a new one at current pricing with the proper amount of guests. This could result in an increase in price.
If you would like to protect your deposit, I would highly suggest adding travel insurance. Penalty fees may apply if you cancel or change. Please click this link to fully understand potential penalties/fees.
Please RSVP as soon as possible - mention which room category you would like to book in the “special instructions” section on the RSVP form.
