Does anyone have any idea where we could pick up this item, we just found out that Expedia lied and the Marriot does no longer supply a cot due to fire regulations. Anywhere to buy this on the Island?
thanks

Maybe PriceSmart (like our Costco).

Certified Supermarket is on the main road (L.G. Smith Blvd) going towards the hotel areas. Upstairs they do have furniture. Don't know about an air mattress.

Even if you are able to purchase an air matress, I would make sure that the hotel allows an air matress in the room. If you bring one into the hotel room and it is not allowed, the maid could report that there is an air mattress in the room.

exactly
the occupancy regulations are very strict
for example the renaissance marina tower allows only 2 per room and to ask for a rollway there would be a big NO CAN DO.

if the occupancy for the room is X and there is more than X in the room, or if it is SUSPECTED more than the allotment are in the room, the resort WILL evict.

Last year I bought an air mattress at home. It was queen size and had a built in pump. It made sleeping on the pull out couch bearable for my 6ft 3 son. He would deflate it daily so the maid could clean. Delta allowed 2 checked bags per person. The mattress fit in a duffel bag with wheels with room to add some other things. The maid stored it for us.
