dav1041 Posted August 2, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 2, 2022 On Baja California cruise now, first stop Puerto Vallarta. Took a cab to Hotel Melia ($5/person per trip) and tried to get a resort daypass. They turned us down (they obviously don't need any extra business), so don't waste your time there. Walked to Marriott Beach Resort, got a daypass to the beach and pool area, 1200 peso per person, included a beach towel and 400 peso credit at the restaurant/bar. Had pool chairs, umbrella, beach access and very attentive staff. Pool is awesome and beach is nice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav1041 Posted August 2, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Meant to add covid-19 testing tips. My family of 4 used onpoint teleservice, $15 virtual appointment per person, you provide your own test, we used the free ihealth antigen rapid tests, verification within 15 min, uploaded verification to verifly. Verifly confirmed and approved everything. Check in on cruise was a breeze if your verifly is completed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using OnPoint for the first time this week using the same test kit and it's good to hear it went smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LaRue1975 Posted August 9, 2022 #6 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I plan to take the family to the Marriott when we are on the Panorama in October. Thank you for confirming they are still offering day passes. I am hopeful the testing will be gone by then but plan to use On Point with our free tests so thanks for that info too.

We have sailed out of both Long Beach and San Francisco recently and masks were required at both terminals. We did not venture far from the ships in Mexico (but did not notice masks being required). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
