I guess I count myself lucky. I've stayed here and had a general good experience at the hotel before. I found the staff friendly, and restaurants decent. I'm sure I ventured into the water while I was here and I missed the sign. Not sure if the sign is new or I missed it, but it is certainly missable. I never would have gone into the water had I known crocodiles were nearby/in the water and it was near the mouth of a river. That's just asking for it. Shame on me for not doing my research in advance. As much as I liked this hotel in the past, I doubt I'll be back if the crocodiles are a problem here. I go to a beach resort to go the...beach! If that can't be done in relative safety, then I won't go. I understand that there is always a risk of sharks or jellyfish, but those are whole different animals than crocodiles.
