The ocean waters are seen sweeping underneath the hotel, which is raised up on stilts. The inner pool area and lobby are completely overtaken and the water is rising nearly into the first floor of rooms. The videographer is audibly distraught at the scene, which is also shows wind damage to the hotel.
