A resort fee is a (usually unadvertised) mandatory fee tacked onto a nightly room rate. Fees can be as low as $3.50 per night at the Clarion Inn & Suites at International Drive, Orlando (they call this one a safe fee), to as much as $60 per night for the St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort, Puerto Rico.
In addition, if a hotel DOES have a resort fee, the resort fee and what it provides are explained in detail in red at the bottom of the rate table. We encourage you to patronize these more honest hotels. Currently there are 105 Hawaii hotels that charge mandatory daily resort fees. The hotels add these fees to your bill at checkout, so that, even if you prepaid your hotel stay and charged nothing to your room, you will still have a significant bill upon checkout.
