"Do you make airline reservations?"
We don't make the reservations for you but we now offer "Discount Air" to our clients
that will give you a very good option with great rates.
We now are working with CVOA (The Caribbean Villa Owners Association) who are able to offer Onestop
clients discount airfares to Jamaica. You can call them toll free at 1-877-248-2862
and ask for the best rate or use our 'Discount Air' button from the main page. Be sure to tell them you're booking your accommodations through "Onestop".
The best fares are usually available within six weeks of your departure date but you can't always wait
'til the last minute or the flights may be filled.
We have found that it's usually less expensive to book your flight and accommodation separately.
"Does it cost more to book through you?"
No it doesn't. We charge the same rate as the resorts and throughout the year we may offer special rates
for "Onestop" clients.
"What advantage is there in booking through
you?"
There are many advantages in booking through "Onestop".

"When I book through you do I
receive a confirmation?"
Once you have made your booking and we have received your deposit or payment you will be sent an official
confirmation including your information, your resort, dates, description of your accommodations
and the rate you paid.
"Are you a registered business?"
We've only been asked this a couple of times but yes we are fully registered and
contracted to the resorts we represent. We have been in business representing Jamaican resorts since 1998.
"Is Treasure Beach safe?"
This is a question we often get asked as a result of "scare" tactics by ill-advised travel agents.
Treasure Beach is very safe and clean.
"Is food expensive?"
Being an island, food is as expensive if not more expensive than back home.
Buying food to cook is best done at the local markets.
"When is hurricane season?"
Hurricane season starts at the end of August 'til about the middle of October. You don't have too much
to worry about, though, as a hurricane hits Jamaica about once every ten to fifteen years.
"What sights are there to see near
Treasure Beach or around Jamaica?"
We have just adding a large section devoted to all the interesting places to visit and sites to see.
Just click on "Things To Do" on the menu at left.
"What do I need to know about visiting Jamaica?"
Jamaica is an island of incredible natural beauty and diversity. Tourism is an integral part of their economy
and they welcome your visit. Please remember that you are a guest in their country. Be open to new experiences
and a slower pace of life. Go with an open mind and you will be rewarded with new friendships and an abiding respect for the people and their island.
"Do you offer travel insurance?"
Yes we do....just click on the "Insurance" button on the main menu to the left of here.
All types of insurance are offered including trip cancellation, health, etc. through the Travel Insurance Center
"Should we spend American dollars or Jamaican dollars?"
US and Jamican dollars are both official currencies in Jamaica. You can use either but we recommend that you bring $US travellers checks and
cash them at the banks or Cambios (money exchanges) located on the way into Treasure Beach or at exchanges at the resorts. We recommend exchanging before you get to the resorts as the rate will be better.
