Recreation

At the resort's front, a blunt promontory separates two beaches. One is a shallow 1.5-km (1-mi) strip washed by the Caribbean Sea to the resort's seawall, above which are cushioned lounge chairs under thatched shades and seagrape trees. The other is a deeper, 200-m (219-yd) stretch furnished with lounge chairs and umbrellas that also includes an area with hammocks and cushioned lounge chairs. Atop the promontory is a 9-by-3.75-m (29-by-12-ft) pool with a sea view from a 9.25-m (30-ft) bluff.

Use of snorkeling gear, floats, pedal boats, and kayaks is complimentary, as is an introductory water-skiing lesson and use of the resort's lighted, artificial-grass tennis court, which has a basketball hoop. Motorized water sports (surcharges) such as water skiing, wakeboarding, banana boating, and tubing can be arranged at the resort. Snorkeling excursions to a rocky island just off shore and glass-bottom-boat trips are also available for surcharges.

The recreational activities listed below are available either on site or near the resort; fees may apply.
