If you can be flexible with your arrival and departure, plan to arrive at Sugarloaf before or after late December to avoid the crowds. Arriving in November or early December may also allow you to secure lower accommodation rates.
Groceries, dining and other activities may be more expensive than what you see back home. Budgeting carefully lets you keep track of your spending and ensures you can still enjoy your visit.
