HEDONISM II EXPANDS “PARTY SAFELY” MEASURES TO INCLUDE PROOF OF COVID-19 TESTING FOR ALL GUESTS

According to the CDC, viral tests (those that detect SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid or antigens) are valid to enter the U.S. The latest order requires all air passengers arriving to the US from Jamaica to get tested no more than 1 day before their flight departs and to provide proof of the negative result or documentation of having recovered from COVID-19 to the airline before boarding the flight. Canadian restrictions require a negative PCR result before boarding their flight back to Canada. That means travelers should be able to take either a PCR or rapid antigen test, as long as written documentation of test results (paper or electronic copy) can be provided to the airline.
If a guest’s test results are positive, Hedonism II will provide complimentary quarantine accommodations at the resort for the mandatory wait period of 5 days. In the event the guest health deteriorates further the Ministry of Health may insist that the guest(s) be transferred to an on-island medical facility – until a doctor certifies clearance for travel with a negative test result.

Effective September 1, 2021, there will be a charge for covid-19 on-site testing.
The cost will be as follows:
• Rapid-Antigen – U$20.00
• PCR – U$90.00
Travel agent rates and comp stays do not apply. Policies are subject to be reviewed and amended accordingly and updates will be communicated in a timely manner.
The Jamaican Government has requested that we remind everyone to use only COVID approved, inspected, insured and licensed transportation companies to and from the resort. We ask that you comply with this directive for your own safety and for the safety of our staff and other guests.
IMPORTANT: For the latest Jamaican Government requirements go to www.visitjamaica.com. All visitors arriving to Jamaica are also required to obtain a Travel Authorization prior to arrival, which can be applied for online at: https://travelauth.visitjamaica.com.
NEGRIL, JAMAICA – AUGUST 2021 – Since its re-opening on July 1st, Hedonism II has rigorously implemented safety and sanitation measures, following the directives and recommendations of both Jamaican and international organizations. Now, in an effort to further protect resort visitors, Hedonism II is expanding upon Jamaica’s mandatory testing procedures to apply to all guests arriving to and staying at the resort.

Currently, per Jamaican government protocol, all travellers ages 12 and up regardless of nationality are required to provide proof of a negative Covid-19 PCR or Antigen test result from an accredited lab within 3 days of the intended travel date.

Proof of test results will be required at check in. Should a guest not have the necessary documentation upon arrival, they will be directed to a government approved clinic for testing – at their expense - and be required to quarantine in designated rooms at the resort until results are received.
