Contracted group vacations have special terms and conditions-please refer to your group contract. If you booked through a travel agent, all communications prior to departure, including questions about changes, cancellation, payments, and refunds, must be via your travel agent. Some travel agents charge service fees and/or additional cancellation fees. Standard policies, payments and penalties outlined below may be more restrictive during holidays and special events.

All transactions, whether payments, penalties, or refunds, are transacted in U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange at time of the transaction. We are not responsible and will make no adjustments for exchange rate differences due to international currency fluctuations.

If you booked through a travel advisor or a third party, you must immediately notify your travel advisor or original booking company to cancel or make changes to your vacation package.

All changes and cancellations are subject to availability, limitations, restrictions, and fees imposed by COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA and its airline suppliers. Many airfares and hotel reservations are nonrefundable and nontransferable, and you may be charged 100% cancellation/change penalties. Changes to, or cancellation of, a Basic Economy flight will result in forfeiture of tickets. Passengers who do not travel are subject to 100% cancellation penalties. Hotel cancellation penalties are established by the hotel. Review the hotel profile for more specific information on hotel cancellation penalties.

Significant additional penalties (i.e., nonrefundable airline tickets and fees, nonrefundable or nontransferable hotel promotions) may apply. If the number of individuals occupying a room changes due to a cancellation or booking change, the remaining traveler(s) will be responsible for any additional costs incurred because of the change in the per person occupancy rate. If all travelers change, it is considered a new booking and cancellation fees will apply. Once travel has begun, there will be no refunds for any unused or partially used travel component for any reason. Standard change and cancellation policies apply to bookings made with travel credit.

TRAVEL INSURANCE:

Coconut Bay Beach Resort & Spa strongly recommends all guests protect themselves from losses due to last-minute cancellations, no-show, or unforeseen flight delays.  We will charge penalties for all situations because we are a small, independently owned business and are completely reliant on international arriving flights.  Saint Lucia has no last-minute walk-in business that would allow rooms to be resold.  Our resort reservations staff will not refund within the penalty period or change dates within the penalty period under any circumstances.  Please review our policies carefully and consider contacting your insurance agent or travel advisor for travel insurance. The resort does not provide and is not responsible for any issues or claims related to travel insurance. Here are some travel insurance options for your consideration:  Allianz Travel, Travel Guard, AXA Travel Insurance.

Refund allocations in original form of payment: Refunds will be processed in the original form of payment and posted to the original credit card charged. If multiple cards were charged, refunds are posted in proportionate amounts to the original charges. Refunds in original form of payment are generally processed within approximately 30 days of cancellation.

Credit Card Transactions & Chargebacks

If for any reason, any travel service provider is unable to provide the services for which you have contracted, your sole remedy lies against the provider, and not against COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA. In the event that payment has been made by credit card, you hereby agree that you expressly and unconditionally waive any rights to protest charges or take any other action which would cause funds to be withheld from the resort and you will not seek to charge back your payment to COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA. If COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA incurs any costs, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, to recover any payments charged back by your credit card company, you agree that you will be liable for these costs. If the credit card is declined, you guarantee that you will settle any amounts owed to COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA via money order or cash immediately.

Required Entry/ Re-entry Documentation

Proper documentation for travel into Saint Lucia is YOUR responsibility. This information may change- see your travel agent or contact your destination consulate for the most current requirements on your travel date.

Passengers arriving in Saint Lucia from any international destination must have a valid passport, and may be denied boarding by the airline if the passport is damaged, mutilated, or has excessive wear. A “Passport Card” is not acceptable. If your name on your passport (or for non-U.S. citizens, “valid travel documents”) does not match your name on your travel documentation, you will not be allowed to travel. A passport valid for up to 6 months past the date of completed travel is required when visiting Saint Lucia. Married or divorced women traveling under names other than what is printed on their travel documents must supply a marriage license and/or divorce decree. Contact Saint Lucia’s consulate or embassy to determine required entry documents.

Any passenger who is denied boarding due to lack of proper documentation will have their vacation cancelled. Failure to comply with the above requirements will result in you not being allowed to travel and no refund will be given.

Traveling Minors

We cannot accept unaccompanied minors under 18 for any travel. For certain countries, a notarized consent from both parents or legal guardian(s) is required for children younger than 18 years old traveling with one parent, or in someone else’s custody; or a notarized birth certificate showing only one parent, a parent’s death certificate, or a court order of child custody MAY also be permissible. Be sure to check with your travel agent, inquire with Saint Lucia’s consulate, or visit websites such as travel.state.gov, dhs.gov. Some airlines may require documentation for children traveling without their legal guardian beyond what is mandated by the destination country- contact your airline directly for details.

Denial of Entry

Certain countries may deny entry to travelers with even a minor criminal record. Check with the Saint Lucia government website or embassy to ensure you can travel as planned. COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA does not accept responsibility if you are denied entry and cancellation penalties apply.

Flights & Airport Check-in

Your flight information will appear on the booking confirmation issued when you make your deposit, and on your electronic travel documents issued upon full payment. All flight times are subject to change without notice. We strongly suggest that you reconfirm exact flight times with the carrier 24 hours prior to departure and again before departing for the airport. Please be advised that we may provide your name, phone number and/or email address to third party suppliers such as air carriers to be used to advise passengers of irregular flight operations and disruptions.

For international flights, we recommend arriving at the airport at least three hours prior to your scheduled departure time to allow time to check in and get through Security. If you do not have pre-assigned seats and have seat preferences, we recommend that you arrive early as seats will be assigned upon check in based on availability. Pre-assigned seat selection is at the discretion of the air carrier and may require payment of an additional fee.

If you do not check in at the airport or gate at the required time, or do not possess proper documentation, you will be denied boarding and will not be eligible for a refund. Additionally, if you fail to check in for your flight without prior cancellation, you are considered a no-show and will not be eligible for a refund. COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA assumes no responsibility for any passengers making independent connections to flights. Some airlines do not charge for infants under two years of age, but the infant must sit on an adult’s lap. Other airlines do charge for infants or infant air-related taxes. Please check with your air carrier. If an infant reaches the age of two at any time during the vacation, federal law requires the purchase of a separate seat for any remaining portions of the flight.

Package Pricing – Exclusions

If you have not paid for your vacation in full, you will be responsible for any increases in the price of any and all components of the vacation package. COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA reserves the right to re-invoice your reservation should an error be made in computing your vacation price. You may incur additional expenses that are not included in the package price, including but not limited to (unless otherwise noted): airline seat assignments and baggage fees; departure taxes, car seats; rental cars; optional excursions; and items of a personal nature. All prices and features described herein (as well as in COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA’s print advertisements and website) are subject to change without notice.

Taxes Included

All applicable taxes and gratuities are included in the nightly room rate excluding the Saint Lucia Tourism Levy.

In 2020, the Government of Saint Lucia enacted a mandatory Tourism Levy which must be collected on arrival at the resort and is NOT included in our quoted rates. This amount is US$6.00 per person, per night for adults 18 and older, and $3.00 per person, per night for guests 12-17 years old during the check-in process. Children under 12 years old at the end of their accommodation period are exempt from this levy. The Tourism Levy is earmarked to support tourism development initiatives as imposed by the Government of Saint Lucia. Please note as this levy is government imposed it cannot be waived.

Special Requests

If you request special arrangements such as connecting rooms/room locations, bedding preferences, specific assistance, or special meals, we will do our best to accommodate you. However, please be advised, we cannot guarantee special requests.

Handicapped Services and Facilities

Should you desire any special service or equipment to assist with a disability, please let us know in advance so we can properly assist upon arrival on resort. Wheelchair accessible rooms may be requested but cannot be guaranteed. Accessible standards in Saint Lucia may not be consistent with the standards required by the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Health & Safety Tips for Travelers

Please be advised that on the island of Saint Lucia all resorts, restaurants, transfer companies, car rental companies, shops and excursions have established COVID-19 safety measures and precautions which may change often. These safety measures may include but are not limited to attractions closing and reduced hours, size of group gatherings, social distancing requirements, health screenings and self-quarantine requirements. In addition, you must follow Saint Lucia guidelines and the recommendations of health officials. Please note that any public location where people have been or are present provides an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 and COCONUT BAY BEACH RESORT & SPA cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed during your vacation. By traveling, you agree that you assume these inherent risks associated with your vacation. Any and all additional costs will be your sole responsibility.

You are responsible for complying with the health requirements of SAINT LUCIA. If you make a booking, you are confirming that you have followed our recommendations above and forever waive any argument that we should have done anything further with respect to warnings or alerts. Check with your physician regarding any immunizations that may be recommended or required. Use common sense while vacationing. For example, if you choose to drink alcohol, do so in moderation. In addition, be cognizant of the effects of mixing alcohol and certain medications. Should someone in your party become ill, alert the resort front desk for immediate medical attention by our resort nurse or on-call physician. If you have medical issues or concerns about medical services, we urge you to contact our resort with specific questions. Please be aware that medical standards and training of emergency responders and resort medical facilities vary greatly, and health care on our island may not be the same as what you experience at home. Prepayment may be required for services. Check with your insurance provider regarding claims for reimbursement. Sports and aquatic equipment may not meet U.S. safety standards and our resort pools and beaches are not monitored by lifeguards. No destination is 100% safe. By embarking upon your travel, you voluntarily assume all risks involved in such travel, whether expected or unexpected.
