My wife and I just "won" a trip to Club Caribbean in Jamaica. We get 6 days/ 5 nights and airfare for one. We can go anytime before Dec 31, 1985. We have some questions and are understandably dubious about accepting such a "free" gift. (We "won" it by looking at a timeshare resort in Vermont.) 1) What is Jamaica like? 2) When should we go? 3) Do we need passports? 4) How expensive are things (food etc...)? is USA currency accepted? 5) What is Club Caribbean like? In Feldings (sp?) Guidebook to the Caribbean it said "see F's Economy Guide", and when we looked at that there was no mention of it. Some other guidebook mentioned it but just barely. "116 cottage-like villas (called Rondovels) with private beach, tennis, swimming, outdoor entertainment pavilion, "swing bar", disco (yeech!)" It is located in Runaway Bay. It is/ could it be a real dump? How noisy is it? (We spend a lot of vacation time in New England country inns.) We'd appreciate any info at all. Please please please don't clutter up the net with replies, send them to me and I will (I promise!) summarize to net.travel. As I am unsure of my mail/news feeds stability I will acknowledge all responses so if you don't get an ack, please resend it. Thanks very much in advance! pZ -- -- I was just exhausted from the act of being polite.
