TL;DR
Standard rooms in the main building are closer to all facilities, while bungalows are farther away — less convenient in the heat; at check-in staff sometimes ask for an extra ~$20 to upgrade the room.
One guest stayed in room 1126 — located near the TV lounge area, with a view of a small pool, close to everything. The room was booked as standard, but at check-in staff asked for $20 in the passport and offered a different room. In their opinion, it's not worth paying extra for a bungalow — it's a longer walk in the heat.
When comparing prices for a room for three, the "Lagoon" building came out cheaper than the "Duna" building. The guest noted they stayed in the main building last time and don't remember the exact differences between the two.
Another guest booked a standard room with pool access at a low price and wasn't sure whether such rooms are located in the hotel's main building.
