Essentials

Best next move

Use it for the 2 a.m. forgot-something run

Keep Essentials in mind for the late, small problems — water, a charger, a snack, a forgotten toiletry. Being open through the night is the whole value, so don't expect grocery-run breadth.

Visitor fit

For quick, any-hour basics

Best for guests who need sundries, a snack, or a drink without leaving the resort or waiting for morning. Anyone after a real meal or a full shopping trip should look elsewhere.

Locals' angle

Convenience pricing, convenience hours

Locals know in-resort convenience shops trade markup for hours — Essentials is worth it at 2 a.m. for a forgotten item, less so for anything you could plan ahead and buy off property.
