TL;DR
Early check-in without extra charge is possible but not guaranteed. Arriving before 6am and waiting through breakfast often results in a free early room assignment.
Arrived at the hotel around 10am and only got the room after 1pm. Early check-in wasn't offered at the front desk, but waiting without paying extra was possible — spent the time exploring the grounds and beach.
Room was assigned right after breakfast on arrival day — smooth and free of charge.
A reliable trick for free early check-in: arrive at the hotel between 5–6am before breakfast starts, wait in the lobby, then go to breakfast — after which the room is given at no extra cost. This worked four times in a row.
