futuredivot 0 #1 April 24, 2008 What is meant by the dress code designations Resort Casual And Resort Upscale? I can do Casual, biz casual, black tie, but I don't know what's meant when you throw in the word "Resort" Does that take casual from khakis to khaki shorts? Does Resort Upscale mean to lose the tie but avoid the tacky shirts, or tacky shirts are OK, but wear a tie. Geesh, they make this harder than it needs to beYou are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos340 1 #2 April 24, 2008 Depends on the resort. For example, Hedonism is a resort that Casual has a slightly different meaning than say a Disney resort. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gato 0 #4 April 24, 2008 Resort casual - Tommy Bahama shirts, no jeans, linen pants. Resort upscale - Sport jacket, collared shirt, and loafers maybe? Try calling a travel agent, or the resort itself. Think "yacht club." For God's sake, don't let yourself be seen in an ascot and a captain's hat. T.I.N.S.

I would say to make sure you catch the Show at the Hotel Park too while you are there but I think it is closed now.BTW, Costa Ricans are the most casual laid back people you will ever meet. Dont worry about it. Pura Vida. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

futuredivot 0 #7 April 24, 2008 See, you just have to know people with class, you don't really have to have any yourself.
