Entering Antigua: Currently, Antigua does not require any type of testing or vaccination to enter the country.
Returning to the US: Effective June 13, 2022, the US no longer requires a negative covid test to return to the US. However, the CDC has stated that this policy will be re-addressed every 90 days or if a new covid variant requires it. If you'd like to read more about this requirement, please visit:

Because group reservations at all inclusive resorts are pre-paid and non-refundable, travel insurance is encouraged to protect your investment. Life is unpredictable; plans can change.
The cost of insurance is based on your age, your state of residency and the total cost of your trip. Due to this, travel insurance prices will be quoted for each individual guest.
- Without insurance, there are no refunds should your plans change
- Without insurance, you will also not have any medical coverage for mishaps or catastrophic events.
- Your US health insurance will likely not work outside of the United States; please read the FAQ below for more detail.
Please include in the reservation form if you will be needing an insurance, once the form is received you will be getting an insurance quote together with your room quote.
Yes! Initial deposit is due on April 5, 2023. There are no set requirements for payments, as long as final payments are made by the deadline. Final payment is due July 19, 2023.
While the group requests that you book your room with the group, you are welcome to book your own airfare.
Due to contract deadlines, we recommend booking your hotel room as early as possible and adding air when you're ready.
The closest airport is VC Bird International Airport (ANU). Transportation is only included from this airport.
We suggest booking your flight (especially from CA/AZ) a day before your expected arrival date in Antigua. Due to the time difference and travel time, most flights arrive the next day. When booking a flight, make sure that your arrival date & check-in date match.
If you book your own air, please forward your air confirmation email to me no later than September 27, 2023. This is how we schedule your transportation pick up at your destination.
Guests who do not submit their air information by the deadline will forfeit their included transfers.
If you would like assistance with air, we are happy to help! There is a $50 ticketing fee included in all of our air quotes.
Yes! Please coordinate with your roommate and designate ONE person to fill out the reservation form.
Reservation forms should be one per ROOM, not one per person. When I get your form, I will email both of you and explain next steps.
If you and your roommate live at different addresses, please make sure to include the second passenger's contact info. This can go in the notes field.
Please submit your reservation form with your information & if you are needing a roommate, please coordinate with Richael & Zach to match you with one. Please note Sandals only has one King size bed & request for an extra bed is not allowed.
Absolutely! That is not a problem at all. If you would like to stay for dates before or after this date window, please include the requested dates in your reservation form and I will confirm availability.
Note: rates outside of the room block dates may differ from our group rates quoted here.
The couple has paid a deposit to pre-reserve rooms for your group. They have a group contract that allows them to offer additional benefits for their guests.
The group kindly asks that you book your hotel within our designated group contract here at CC Vacations LLC.
There are several reasons why you should honor the group's wishes and book the hotel portion with the group:
- The group has worked with me to negotiate a contract for the ENTIRE group. This includes a special set rate and included transportation.
- Groups are given priority status at the resort, so you might miss out on some VIP treatment.
- Groups are given priority room assignments, so if you book directly, you're likely getting a room that couldn't be sold to a group. It will be leftover inventory, probably in a undesirable location away from everyone else.
- Groups are given priority in terms of an oversold situation. If the hotel over sells, your group is protected but his reservation is not. You could be walked to another location.
Guests who do not book within the group contract unfortunately:
- Will not get the group rates
- Will have to pay up front vs. over time.
- Will not receive any pre-departure, trip support or post-trip support from me.
- Unfortunately I cannot assist with travel arrangements made outside of the group, nor can I assist in the event of an emergency.
- Will be required to pay a day pass on property to attend wedding events. Note: Day pass sales are extremely limited due to covid occupancy restrictions.
No problem, feel free to contact me: Carol Carrillo, cc@carolcvacations.com.
Please note: Due to the nature of my job, I am frequently on the phone with travel suppliers. Email is the fastest and best way to contact me.

Friendly reminders before sending your reservations:
- Double check the name on your passport. The name on your reservations must match exactly the name on your passport. No nicknames, shortened names, etc. A change fee may apply if your reservation does not match the name on your passport.

- Check with your bank if you are using a debit card, most banks have a daily charge limit. Please confirm with your bank prior to submitting a large debit card payment.
- If you are pregnant or planning to be pregnant: Some trips have restrictions for pregnant travelers. For example, cruise lines will not board a passenger after her 24th week of pregnancy. Ask me for more details. Travel Insurance and Pregnancy: Please read the coverage info carefully. In many policies, pregnancy is considered a pre-existing condition and is not a covered cancellation reason. In this case, you may want to consider "Cancel for Any Reason" coverage, an optional upgrade.
- Felonies / DUI / Owe back child support - if any of these applies to you, you may not be able to get a passport, clear immigration, or you may get detained at customs. Please contact your attorney to review the specifics of your case.
