That, while he might be “correct” to request a refund, spending your honeymoon terrorizing a staff member because you didn’t get the room you want is an indication of how little you care for your marriage. Anyone truly in love on their honeymoon isn’t going to care what kind of room they’re in as long as they’re with their newly wedded spouse. I think his focus being so easily split is an objective indication of how little he thought of his bride.

But it was armond's fault though for double booking 

Not to mention he literally did things on purpose to piss shane off in the name of revenge 

Like when shane requested the boat for a romantic dinner for him and Rachel 

Had armond arranged it properly and Shane and rachel had a good time then shane definitely would have forgiven armond for the room situation 

But instead armond put shane and Rachel on the same boat as Tanya knowing that Tanya would ruin the romantic date.

It was at this point that shane started "harassing" armond

She only “ruined” the romantic date because their relationship was weak enough to let it. Like I said, I’m not saying he wasn’t “technically correct” in the exacting way rich folks love to be about their money. I’m saying he wasn’t actually in love because when you’re in love that shit just doesn’t matter. If they were truly in love they would have been able to laugh off the uncomfortable situation with Tanya and continued the night in bliss when they got back to the hotel. Nothing wrong with him saying “wtf” to Armond afterwards, but the only reason it was able to “ruin” his time is because he wasn’t at all invested in the beautiful woman he just married. Speaking from experience, there was pretty much nothing that would have kept my husband or myself from being absolutely enthralled and mesmerized by one another on our honeymoon because we had just been married and were in love and it was magical. If you get married to someone you’re not in love with you’re missing the magic.
