Lodging is the largest expense, especially since most rooms are in high-priced hotels.
The good news is that landhuisen , former Dutch plantation houses, are increasingly being renovated into moderately priced guesthouses. Bear in mind that accommodations rates are slashed in the low season even at the most luxurious hotels. Major credit cards are also widely accepted. We encourage you to verify any critical information with the relevant authorities before you travel. This includes information on visa requirements, health and safety, customs, and transportation.
