Practical planning tips for 10+ room bookings
These steps reflect widely used hospitality best practices and will help you collaborate efficiently with our team:
- Start early for best availability. Popular dates and ocean-view spaces are in high demand.
- Share a realistic room count range. Provide a base number plus a stretch goal to guide inventory discussions.
- Map your agenda to spaces. Identify general sessions, breakouts, and social moments; note any preference for ocean-view venues.
- Align billing and payment. Decide on individual-pay vs. master billing; ensure an approved credit card is on file since the resort is cashless.
- Consider arrivals in waves. Staggered check-ins, Mobile Key, and express check-out reduce lobby queues for larger parties.
- Build optional social time on site. Leverage theme nights at Anchor & Den, Vista Bar sunsets, the courtyard, or spa appointments.
- Communicate accessibility needs early. Reserve appropriate accessible rooms and confirm routes to meeting spaces.
- Plan transportation. The hotel does not operate an airport shuttle; coordinate transfers and inform attendees about the complimentary beach shuttle schedule.
- Encourage Marriott Bonvoy enrollment. Members who book direct enjoy complimentary in-room Internet and can earn or redeem points.
- Centralize updates with a rooming list. Keep attendee names, dates, and special requests organized for smooth pre-arrival coordination.
