I don't know that you want to sit there that long, but you could pay to use the Souliga Lounge at the airport. It is about $20 a person and includes light snacks, like meatballs and chicken wings, and soft drinks and wine (but not liquor or beer). They have TVs and internet. He could sit there in the lounge and you could do some shopping if you wanted to, as you can go in and out. If you're talking somewhere on the beach (although I'm not sure whether that's the definition of 'restful' or not), Karakter does have showers and internet and they will keep your carry on bags for you, but it is apt to be crowded there. As far as a hotel that would do a day pass, that I don't know. You might try calling Mary's Boon, or somewhere like that.

How much did it cost and how did you accomplish it?

Go to the Dream Pool Bar at the Alegria Resort close to the airport. The bar is open, but there are not many people staying at the resort so it is very quiet there. There is a nice pool and a lovely ocean view so could prove very relaxing. Marty will appreciate your business.The resort may offer you a good deal for the day if you prefer A/C.

OK, let's not have this thread get totally off track. If anyone has any other suggestions for Christine, please post those.

Sorry to hear that John. Marty is really having a hard time with everything there.That resort had so much potential and now it is a pitiful sight.I was encouraging people to go there for a drink and relax as Marty needs all the business he can get there.

ChristineBDB said: We have a long wait (6hours) before our flight tomorrow and my husband is under the weather with bronchitis. Any ideas where we could go that would be restful for him? Don't mind paying to stay somewhere as we can't stay in our condo.
Thanks for any help Christine Christine, hopefully you are home and comfortable now, and he is feeling better. Never fun to be sick on vacation and certainly worse on a hectic travel day. Please come back and let us know what you decided to do and how you made out....I hope it was good.

I do hope she comes back and lets us know what happened. Afterward, I realized she might not have been able to check her bags that early..
