Just finished a 5 night stay as well.
- Hotel was very busy. I even thought of extending my stay and it was completely sold out the rest of the week.
- Mask wearing is almost 100% and I believe required under state law, even in outdoor areas, other in your seat at the beach/pool or in the water (or otherwise while eating/drinking).
- Got a nice upgrade to a double queen room on the cottage green. No suites were available. This was a big win for our agenda because we could access the green and beach easily with kids and we can park directly at our room, which is convenient for going out for hikes or activities. Room is small but location and balcony make it worth it.
- We rented from the bike shop on premises and found their prices were a little pricey but understandable given the on-resort location and quality of the equipment. Flume bike shop (mentioned above) seemed to cater to mountain bikers and we found their road/kid bike offerings pretty weak even though they are right on the East Shore Trail. Highly recommend the East Short Trail, just be aware there are some significant grades if you take your kids. My son (5) enjoyed the tag-along experience. Regular hybrid bikes are $39/day and kids equipment (whether bike, tag-along, trailer or attached seat) were $29/day.
- Globalist breakfast is at Lone Eagle as others have mentioned. Buffet is included but not a la carte. Buffet seemed pretty safe with plexiglass barriers between the food and the diners and servers filling up your plate according to your instructions. Food was good quality. They have a weird reservation policy where you are allowed to reserve a table, but not allowed to reserve an outdoor table. So it's a reservation for inside, but outside is all first come first served. Going before 8:30am every day meant outside was easy to get. For what it's worth, we generally have not dined inside since March but the ventilation is very good here with many doors and windows open on all sides.
- I attempted to charge all my food to my room and use points to redeem against the charge with the 25% rebate promotion. They weren't able to help at the front desk and WOH concierge said it must be done at the actual restaurant (a bit difficult at the pool bar where a line of people who just want to order a beer is waiting behind you in masks in the sun and I have no confidence the bartender is going to know the protocol for redemption). I heard reports of other hotels allowing aggregating with room charges then redeeming, but it didn't seem to work here.
- Housekeeping needs were easy to coordinate with the manager texting system.
