Couple end up only guest at huge resort. Fun or frightening? Vid in blog.

Would having a beach resort, like Sandals, all to yourself be heaven or creepy? I’m talking that you and your significant other are the only guests. All of the chefs, maids, and every other employee are on hand to see to everything, but not a single other guest.

A couple booked to stay at the Grand Velas Boutique in Los Cabos. It’s a new resort. So new that when this couple got there, they were the only ones that enjoying the place. They posted videos of the place on Tik Tok……….. hundreds of empty chairs under umbrellas, buffets full of food and no one there to eat any, activities scheduled with this couple being the only ones to attend, and  long stretches of empty beach. They said it felt like an episode of Black Mirror.

The video has over 7 million views and did catch the attention of the hotel management. They released a statement saying, “Velas Resorts prides itself on offering the very best, not just when it comes to service, but food, accommodations, design, experiences, et al. At present, we are limiting the number of suites available for booking at the new property until we are confident that all aspects of the resort would surpass travelers’ expectations.”

I’d want to get out of there after a couple days. Jenny and I usually like to meet and talk to other guests at resorts. But, not too many people. Empty resort though, that’d feel too much like lock down during Covid.
