Also, the souvenir store at IC Thalasso allows you to bill charges to room ^
Thalasso is my main stop, but I am not planning to use them for transportation since I am at Moana first. I was more curious about cash for taxi if exploring, shops, eating out, etc. Even if a shop takes CC, I wonder how bad the exchange is vs. what I can get from a bank before I leave.
