Mama Hen says: Don’t judge a book by its cover! 

Yes, this hotel is adjacent to the airport… on an island.  However, I found more than seven 4-star restaurants with a decent variety of options incl: coffee shops, pizza, Italian, bbq, chicken & beer, noodles, Korean (of course) and several activities on the island: beach, viewpoints, parks, walking/running trails, hike, a casino, amusement park, art gallery, cultural center, pool/spa (outside of the hotel), port, golf course and range, rail bike, ferry to other near by islands with beaches and hiking trails.
