Welcome to the forum.

Dress code will be dependent upon where you dine. For the most part, dress is resort casual. For men, a nice pair of twill shorts and polo or button down shirt.

Some resorts require long pants for men at ala carte restaurants for dinner. Two which come to mind are the Riu and Occidental.

Ok. How much money should we bring. We have the kitchen in our hotel room. So we do plan on cooking and not eating out as much to save some money...?!?!

Well we're not staying at an all inclusive. We will be going to the grocery store and cooking our meals thru out the day and eating out at night. And just relaxing on the bracket. Were going in Oct. For 9 days.

Advice on Spending Money
try this thread

if you give us a clue on "what" kind of activities, "what" kind of restaurants you'll visit, some of us may have suggestions.

Well we planning on eating at the restraunts at the hotel and possibly go into town and explore but not renting a vehicle. We do want to rent jet-ski's one day and that's pretty much it.
