NOT STAYING ON-PROPERTY/RESORT VISITORS
The resort is a private, gated property and all amenities and facilities are for the use of registered resort guests and members. The resort facilities within the gated property do not accept cash or credit cards and charges must be posted to the guest’s charge account. Any group attendee who is not a registered guest or member may obtain access and charging privileges to the resort by prearranging a guest charge card and paying an amenity usage fee, currently $75.00 per person, per day. Requests for a guest charge card cannot be accommodated on the day of arrival. Guest charge card forms are available upon request by contacting the hotel directly at 800.874.6878. Access to the resort by visitors without a guest charge card will be denied.

Updated 9/22/08: the hotel has explained further that this policy is for non-guests that want to use the resort’s amenities (i.e. – restaurants, shops, recreation, etc). Should an attendee be staying off property and is coming only to the meetings and events being held by GAR, they may come on to the property without a charge.
