Card captor guy, your post doesn't work. There is no way that someone's hotel room would be the first thing to reach upon arriving at a new island. It especially wouldn't be your first contact with another person. For starters, it's inside, and therefore you'd have to go through SOME sort of lobby. Secondly, there is no REASON to head towards someone's hotel room.

And on top of that, it's not really a scene characters have much, if any place, wandering into. Starting conversations with people waiting outside a door is the job of security guards, not passers-by.

... it's probably too early to point out the sand, too.
