Boulderboy,

You are not “way slow”, you have to be one of the finest examples of someone living on Island Time.

Due to COVID, we have not been back since writing the report you read so our information could be outdated. Wi-Fi worked fine for our needs which seem similar to your own. Guavaberry has a network of strategically placed routers (or the equivalent thereof) scattered about the property. We were up in Tulip which is one of the furthest houses from the office and for the most part had a strong signal. We believe the Wi-Fi came with the house and there we no additional charges but it would be best to check with Michelle to see how they are doing things these days.

In terms of phone service, we had both Consumer Cellular and Verizon. Actual calling charges were the same for both, but the Verizon plan required initiating a special service from them which involved a daily fee, maybe $10. Consumer Cellular had no special fee. Their respective plans might have changed during the 3 years since we were there.

Overall, we wanted to be on the beach as much as possible, avoided phone calls as much as possible and when we needed to make contact with someone, did so by email using the computer in the office.

Hope this helps.
