If you are dropped off in front of the Hotel, go through their lobby and exit on the North side (which is the exit that takes you toward the beach/pool area). Once you are outside, follow the sidewalk all the way to the right. The first building on your left has a few businesses side by side, yet you will be entering the first door you come to. You can only enter on the South-eastern side of this building. If you get lost, just ask anyone for the Registrar General’s office.

If the taxi drops you off on the side of the property facing the Straw Market, to the entrance of the Scotia Bank. Then, take the glass doors immediately to the right of the bank (this will lead you into a hall area with access to various businesses). Take the second set of glass doors on the right, which are immediately after the entrance to a liquor store. Once inside this area, you will walk past the security desk (on the right) until you reach the last glass door on the left. You are now outside, on the other side of the facility. Follow the sidewalk straight ahead until you come to the first building on your right. The entrance to the Registrar General’s office will be the first door you come to in that building.
