Stay, Play, Then Shower: Make the Most of Delfins Departure-Day Facilities

Flying out late and worried you’ll lose a full beach day? With Delfins departure-day facilities, you don’t have to. Check out, store your bags, keep enjoying the pools and private beach, pick up a fresh towel, and shower in our dedicated check‑out room before heading to Flamingo Airport. This guide shows you exactly how to turn departure day into one more mini‑vacation.

Departure-Day Game Plan at a Glance

• Drop your luggage with the Front Office for safe storage.
• Collect a fresh towel at reception.
• Keep the vacation going: enjoy the pools and private beach, or snorkel from the pier.
• Use the dedicated check‑out shower room to freshen up before you leave.
• Book an airport transfer to/from Flamingo Airport for $20 per person (return) if you’d like a seamless ride.

Pro tip: If you prefer extra time in your room, Delfins offers late check‑out (subject to availability) that you can request 24 hours before departure.

Late Check-Out vs. Play-All-Day: Pick the Right Strategy

Delfins gives you two great ways to design a stress‑free departure day. Here’s how they compare so you can choose what fits your schedule.

Option 1: Late Check-Out (until 4 PM)

• Request window: 24 hours before departure
• Availability: Subject to availability
• Latest time: 4 PM
• Rates by accommodation type:
  • Studios and 1‑bedroom apartments: $25 per additional hour
  • 2‑bedroom apartments, penthouses, and villas: $35 per additional hour

This is ideal if you want quiet time in your room to pack, rest, or take calls without moving your day bag around.

Option 2: Use Delfins Departure-Day Facilities After Check-Out

• Luggage storage: Front Office assistance on your departure day
• Towel pickup: Collect a fresh towel at reception
• Shower access: Use the dedicated check‑out shower room before leaving

Choose this if you’d rather maximize beach and pool time, enjoy a leisurely lunch, or squeeze in one more snorkel.

Which option should you choose?

• If your flight is mid‑afternoon and you value downtime indoors, late check‑out buys you flexibility.
• If your flight is evening and you want every last ray of sunshine, the departure‑day facilities keep you comfortable and refreshed without the extra room hours.

Make the Most of Your Final Hours on Property

Departure day is the perfect moment to revisit your favorite on‑site experiences—without the rush.

Beach and Snorkeling
