FAQ
Provo:
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
Should I rent a car?
It depends on the length of stay and your desire to explore the island. For a weekend trip, it is not necessary, although if your stay is a week or more, having a car for a portion of the stay can allow you to get out and about.
Dinner Dress Code?
In the better restaurants, smart casual is appropriate. Khaki pants and a polo or equivalent for men and dresses or capris for women. There are many casual beach spots that shorts and flip flops are appropriate at any hour.
Are Taxis Available?
Yes, taxis are available. They operate on “island time” with charges on a zone system and are per person. A round trip to dinner can easily equal the cost of a daily car rental (~$50). Expect several stops on each taxi ride. Private chauffeured cars can be arranged, but at a steep cost.
Is there nightlife?
In summary, no, the nightlife consists of a glass of wine and fantastic food with family or friends. The island is virtually quiet by 11pm so unlike other Caribbean Islands, you
should not expect to party until the sun comes up.
Airport Concerns?
It is advised by the airlines and in our experience that you need to arrive there at least 2.5 hours prior to flight time.
Grocery Shopping
The cost of dining out in Provo is equivalent to dining in NYC or LA, so many people enjoy the option of preparing some meals in their unit. A well-stocked IGA affords familiar US & UK brands, fresh fruits, vegetables, meats & cheeses. Prices are in excess of Whole Foods. Alcohol is expensive and not available for purchase on Sunday, except in restaurants.
