- “It's by 2 hotels and they charge a resort fee to use the beach chairs, $10 or you can put your towel down. There were empty food wrappers, bottles, and empty coconuts discarded on the sand they never picked up, but they wanted to charge for a beach chair.” 4

- “The $10 charge is reasonable for the chairs - but obviously they are not cleaning the beach,” 4
- “Can't wait for our cruise . We just went to the Wyndham resort - was $20 pp for day passes and you got access to the resort next door as well. Was a fun day and well worth it for how cheap it was.” 8
