Can you get a safe deposit box at the front desk and is their a price for these.
. . . yes, ALL resorts have safety boxes
. . . there are two sizes (about 4"x5"x15" and about 5"x7"x15")
. . . like a bank, you place goods in box and you & hotel each get a key
. . . you sign a card and initial the card upon each entry thereafter
. . . they have two sizes at each resort (big laptops do not fit either size)
. . . there is no charge for their use
. . . the hotel is not responsible for the items that you deposit
. . . as a note, resorts do not put guest items into the main hotel safe
. . . you can only use the dafety deposit boxes
As a note for large items left at bell services:
. . . items left with Bell Services are not guaranteed secure
. . . and, there are no separate "lock boxes" or "cages" in luggage rooms
. . . additionally, seldom are luggage rooms kept locked at any resort
. . . frequently guests are found walking through the luggage rooms
EDIT: By using the safe deposit boxes, hotels are completely harmless from liability. The guest handles, places and removes items, so the hotel does not have any chance to alter, damage, or lose items. I know of no hotel that would take responsibility for valuables. There is just too much chance for guests to flim-flam the hotel for lost or damaged goods.
