Re: Who pays taxes at check-in? (by Darcy D.):

I think in some countries there is a surcharge or occupancy tax. I went to Mexico a few years ago and had to pay some sort of tax, it wasn't too much though maybe $20. I've also noticed some resorts in the Bahamas charge a surcharge , for electricity I think they call it, but it's about $20 per day if I remember correctly. You should probably confirm with the resort before you travel. I've never heard of any such fees for resorts in Canada or the US unless it's for optional extras like maid service.
