The only thing close to a routine (and it's followed loosely) is to only go out for one meal a day, i.e. we rotate breakfast, lunch and dinner. The rest of our meals we have back at our unit. We usually have dinner earlier than most - probably 6:30 - 7:00. We've been staying at 2 different places, 1 week at each, and love them equally. When we're at Club O, we're at the beach and have reserved chairs. We like to go for a few hours in the AM, and return mid-afternoon, staying 'til the sun goes down (our favorite beach time). Going for sunrise walks on Orient, with a quick dip, is very enjoyable. When staying elsewhere, we try to get to the beach at 10-ish, or we just laze by the pool. But, definitely renting a car enhances your island experience, having the ability to go when and where you want. The island is easy to learn, there is one main road that basically encircles it. Enjoy, and please let us know how it went.
