I loved the movie too but that scene was kind of odd.
At first it was too funny. It plays on people's closed-minded stereotypes. Her first thought when she sees a group of shirtless black guys is that they're jungle savages coming to attack her.
When they reveal they're on a beach resort, I laughed so hard and though, how nice, they're showing how people should not jump to conclusions. Then, like that, it was totally ruined. The golfer quickly goes from a guy on an early morning golf outing to instant porter in one second. She doesn't ask for his help; she just tells him to 'come along' and has him take her baggage. Wow, one step forward; two steps back.
Also, why does that guy have a British accent? He might have been a tourist but based on what he says I got the impression he's a native. If that's the case, he should have spoken with a French, not a British, accent as French is the language of Haiti.
I still enjoyed the movie quite a bit.
