The resort didn't offer late checkout, but they were accommodating in storing the bags. Also the pool attendants were quite nice. The shops were also quite nice, well-curated, and reasonably priced given the location. Common spaces were inviting and well-maintained, with lots of comfortable spots to sit and enjoy the fire in a proper lodge...
