FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 
 
Q: Do you Allow Non-Members? 
A:  Non-members and guests are charged a P 75.00 entrance fee per person. This fee was recently increased. We have to allow non-members because we want to teach people to sail, and you can't become a member, unless you already know how to sail. 

Q: Do you allow dogs?

 A: YES!!!  We are one of very few resorts/clubs that allow dogs. But we only allow well behaved, well trained ones. If they are unruly, noisy, if they growl, even at other dogs, or if their owners don't take care of them, they're out. We are the final judge. We allow a lot of dogs that have no formal training. On the other hand, we have rejected dogs that have passed the CDX rank. It just depends on the dog. Does your dog bark at the neighbors kids? If the answer is "yes", don't bring him. We have lots of kids, and we don't want them to be afraid of dogs. We are partial to Labradors. We love dogs, and our own "Miss Personality" is CHAMPAGNE who is seen in a lot of TLYC photos like the one above. She's a super family dog, and the kids adore her.  We have to recommend "The Dog Owners Home Vet" because it saved her life.
Q: How about Jetskis and Powerboats? 
A: TLYC does not allow, except under very special arrangement, Jetskis, Powerboats, or other engine driven boats to be launched within the club premises. Space and noise are the major considerations. There are only 3 powerboat storage slots available, and all are taken. A separate club is being planned to accomodate powercraft in the future. 

Q: Are food and drinks available in the club? Can food be brought in? 
A: Ice cold Drinks are available at the self serve cooler on weekends and holidays. We allow the neighboring resort to serve food on the premises, but be forewarned, service is slow. Order an hour before you expect to get hungry. The same thing is true for RAY'S , our concessionaire floating bar and restaurant. The food is good, but t takes a while so just order early. The Australian Sausages are highly recommended. 

Entry of food is allowed. You can bring a grill, or rent one with charcoal. We find that some people want to sail, while others enjoy being in charge on shore, and that usually means taking care of the food. Its all part of the family atmosphere that we promote. 

Q: Do you allow Camping? 
A: Camping is not only allowed, it is encouraged. We want people to appreciate the environment, and there aren't many more pleasurable experiences than lying out on the grass watching the stars at TLYC.   Large private open huts may also be rented by the campers and they can set up their tents on the open space in front of the hut. 

Q: Do you offer Boat Rentals? 
A: If you are not ready to invest in a boat, or find it better to rent, TLYC offers boat rentals. Please ask for the Marine equipment rental info sheet. Hobie 16s are only P1,650 for the whole day on weekends and holidays! There are also Optimists, Escapes, Sunfishes, Kayaks, and Sailboards.  Boat Rentals are 50% OFF on weekdays!  Click Here for rates 

Q: I don't know how to sail! Do you offer lessons?  
A:  Yes, there is a section below that gives more details. To find out about pricing for sailing classes at TLYC Click Here. 

Q: Do you sell learn to sail books? 
A: Yes, we we do. Almost all the books we sell at TLYC are featured on this site, so you have the choice of either buying thru Amazon .com or from the TLYC store. 

Q: How about Trips to the Volcano? 
A: Trips to the Volcano are available at standard rates (which other resorts set). TLYC personel can arrange the banca for your trip. It is recommended that you take a guide if you've never gone before. 

Q: Do you accept large groups, Corporate outings, exclusive use? 
A: Exclusive use of the club facilities can be arranged under certain conditions. But never on Sundays!
