X-Post: Any Car Seat/Seatbelt and Taxi Success?

[Perpetua]

Can someone help out a very overprotective and worry wartish Mommy?

 

We are on the Disney January 20th Eastern sailing with two DDs (4 and 1). We know that we want to go to Divi (sp?) Beach when we go to St. Martin. We want to go for about 3 hours and then get back to the ship for naps. However, we are really concerned that we will not have taxi's with seat belts for our DD's car seat and booster. We would prefer not to rent a car or use the DCL excursions (as we are interested in going to a different beach and I read that the transportation is an open air taxi on the child-friendly excursion).

 

Any stories of car seat success? We would love to find a car or taxi service to set the transportation up ahead of time...even if it was a bit expensive. All I am finding on line is the open air flat-bed truck option which would not accommodate car seats.

 

I have searched the board but all I am reading is advice to "hold on and pray" and stories of "no seat belts". I guess I am just looking for another option. Any tips? Did your taxi have seat belts?
