Food, glorious food, is yet another reason thousands of people choose the villa vacation.

A typical grocery budget is $75-$85 per person per day and $35 per day for preteens. This may vary up or down depending on market prices and menus. If you request shrimp, lobster, imported beef, or large quantities of other food items, this estimate will increase. Your cook will pre-purchase your first few meals, pantry staples, and a small starter bar (a few bottles of Red Stripe, moderately-priced wine, and rum). Additional alcohol requests will increase your budget.

If you wish to go to the various markets with your cook, you are welcome. Otherwise, simply review with her your tastes and distastes and she'll handle it all while you stay at the villa and relax. At the week's end, she will present receipts and reconcile your account. [Note: A few villas have higher food and beverage budgets.] We cannot accept prepayment for groceries or staff gratuities at Tryall Club villas. Please be prepared to pay for your groceries with cash or credit cards and to tip your villa staff and driver with cash. They will welcome both US and Jamaican dollars. Estimating grocery costs is not a science. Much depends on the menus you want and current market prices. Obviously, this is a variable so anticipate that your cook may refund money at week's end... or ask you for more money mid-week. Either way, your cook or chef will reconcile your food and beverage bill at the week's end.

On your first day at the villa, your cook will meet with you regarding menus for the week, then finish the week's shopping. At that time, you will give her cash for your food and drink plus her $80 taxi fare. Plan to pay for your groceries and gratuities in cash. Both USDollars and JADollars are welcome. Alternatively, if one or more of you wish to go to the supermarket with your cook, you may use your credit card. (Stores will not accept your card from your cook if you are not present with her.) Roadside vendors of fresh fruits and produce will require cash.
