Question
How do I get from the airport to my accommodations?
Answer
You will need to use a taxi from the airport (~$40-50, including tip). Taxi drivers line up outside the customs exit. We recommend bringing cash because not all accept card.
Question
Do I need to rent a car?
Answer
Renting a car is not necessary if you are staying at or close to February Point, since we will be providing the transportation for each event throughout the weekend. However, if you are planning to do your own excursions, travel to different restaurants, you may consider renting. We recommend Thompson's Car Rental, Don's Car Rental, Berlie's Car Rental (at the airport, advance reservations required). If you plan any tours/ excursions, ask the tour company to provide transportation to and from your hotel/ villa. Please note, taxis on the island need advance notice on when you will need a ride. There are no ubers/ lyfts on the island.

Are there grocery stores on the island?
Answer
*** Yes, but very limited ones. The closest is Exuma Market in George Town. For those renting villas in February Point, they can stock your villa for you before you arrive for a fee plus the cost of the groceries. ***Note food and alcohol are limited and expensive from grocery stores, we recommend checking some in your bag as needed.*
