Right from the get go they try to take your money. As soon as we got off the plane they just grabed our bags and started working toward the cab. They are supposed to only charge $19 for the first two people and $3 per person after the first two. We were charged $38 plus we gave "Jackson" a tip. WATCH OUT! Most hotels do NOT have shuttles, I recommend arranging a pickup.

Everywhere you go, check your receipts and compare them with your bank statements. If you can access them from online before you leave that would be even better. On one occasion, I left a $3.20 tip to the bartender to bring the total to $40. After I checked my bank satement, he had charged me $44.16. I was over changed multiple times.

Stay off the beach at night, even on hotel/resort property. Although there are security guards on duty, tourists get mugged and beaten on a regular basis.
