I don’t think the resort gives bicycles on rent, at least I did not see any there. We did not ride bicycles but I heard you can get them on Mission Street. Check online.
when I stayed new block was at 90% completed and they had rented it out also. should be complete by now. regarding amenities must be available as of now. if you want rooms in new block you should specifically mention during the booking
