One clarification- I'm not 'protecting' the hotel. The fact that it happened at X resort, or Y Rooms or Zbeach makes no difference. My post is not *about* any one hotel- the point of my sharing this with you all is a PSA to everyone to remember to always lock your doors and take care for your belongings. If you focus on just one hotel, it becomes "oh, this will never happen to me because I stay at ....", instead of "crap, this happens everywhere".

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and for agreeing that it's good we weren't harmed . Our passports and wallets/credit cards, etc were locked in the safe so we were able to get home safely and without that kind of hassle.
