You could not make it up.

When you find it, can you attach a very brightly coloured ribbon/scarf to it?

Oh no. Hope you find it

Has he put it in a pocket or man bag without you noticing? He does have form with keys! Or you'll find it when you roll onto it at 3am. Glad you've arrived safely and room and hotel (and internet) are fine

I’m going to put it on a lanyard.

Morning all 🙂

Been awake ages and dreaming about that blooming scooter key. I dreamt it was in the bin inside an empty birthday card envelope. I checked that bin last night but will try again today as he opened his cards on the bed so it is possible.

He wasn’t at his best last night. We got a taxi to the restaurant and back but he wasn’t at his best, very tired and wobbly. He could barely walk from the hotel reception to the room and it’s only a very short distance. 

We are B&B so will sample the breakfast later. I’m not really a breakfast person so as long as there’s decent coffee and some fruit I’ll be happy. There’s a lovely little pool bar with very reasonably priced drinks eg €2 for a large beer and €5 for cocktails. They also do snacks. 

The hotel room is very clean and spacious. Bedroom, large bathroom with an huge walk in shower with a rail and another room with a sofa. There’s free coffee/tea/milk/sugar. There was a bottle of water and wine in the fridge which was a nice touch. The WiFi is excellent and what’s more important for Mr SA the TV has ITV and BBC 🤣

There are sunbeds on every terrace/balcony. It wasn’t busy around the two pools yesterday and you’re not allowed to reserve sun beds round there. 

Right time to get up and look for this key 😐

Still not found it ☹️ We turned the room upside down this morning, checked every bag, every pocket, moved the bed, nowhere to be seen. I phoned the scooter place to ask if he has a spare key. He’s going to call me back. He said it can’t have just disappeared, unfortunately it seems it has!

I suspect Mr SA was wobbly due to his recent illness plus travel - I wouldn't worry unduly. A few hours of ITV and a beer beside the pool and he should be much more himself.

Could the key have fallen inside a book? Or in the duvet cover? Could it have got kicked into the bathroom or fallen down the sofa cushions? (But I think you will have looked there). We lost the key for the shed padlock once and had to replace the padlock - much later found the key in the peg bag, where I probably dropped it along with a handful of pegs and didn't notice what I'd done. However that's no help unless you can trace all those unrelated actions in which it might have got caught up - perhaps in a pack of tissues or a toiletries bag, inside a shoe or in/under the fridge?

I was going to suggest inside the duvet cover too.
