No boot… because of the amount of luggage, we have a flexible People Carrier with the rear seat down. Driver slides cases along, out and drops them down.

Correct. One’s driver does.

Excellent advice….

Apologies….. my bad…. Should have read disembarkation… Thank you for indirectly raising this issue.

Strange… I all the past decades, we have never had a Porter problem at departures. Could be because we deliberately plan to arrive during the last hour or so. Agree, the arrival Porters are readily available. With their assistance, one is sped past/through queues and rapidly through Customs. As an aside, the Porter method is advised when embarking in New York…. Long queues do not exist with a Porter.

Personal experience. At the vehicle departure designated lines, one’s driver will park/off load, a porter will magically arrive on the scene, load one’s luggage onto a trolly and take away to security. All one has to do is walk to departure with any hand luggage. A gratuity to the porter is appreciated, but not expected.

Okay… Here is my personal favourite close to Roseau … Soufriere (Bubble) Beach… Have recommended Mero in the past, but that’s sadly now gone commercial (Babylon) and downhill. Yes, Bubble is ethnic, with a shabby ambience, but it is unspoilt, with great snorkelling, as it’s a protected Marine area. There are sulphur springs from the seabed, better than Champagne and free. The bars have Bush Rum (have to ask for it).. Genuinely welcoming and appreciate one’s custom. Beach shoes are advised for those being of tender feet, because of pebbles in places (not 100% pristine white sand), but Bush is known to relieve any perceived discomfort. No S.H.T. Take it as it is.. It’s not trying to be something it’s not..

Think it was Lupi’s Mexican Restaurant that one is trying to recall…

Has one tried to “search” on a well known “Booking” site, which can filter by date/s and price. One may find a Gem available in a more desirable area.

One has used LA for a botched repair to a one’s property, under the house insurance policy, with all surveyors costs paid by the policy. Not a penny was spent by oneself. One’s Solicitors Legal costs were recovered by the instructed Solicitors. Again with an injury sustained on a RC ship etc.. No upfront costs, all medical reports, Court Fees etc., recovery of Ship medical bills etc., plus consequential losses, damages and compensation were recovered by Insurers Legal Team. All without any personal outlay One’s Solicitors Legal costs were recovered by the instructed Solicitors. Think it’s best to speak with one’s insurers regaling any scope and coverage of their policies. Different Insurers have different policies.
