Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into a lively lobby where the soothing tones of marble and wood create a warm embrace; the panoramic views of Lindbergh Bay draw the eye immediately, setting the tone for an unforgettable stay. The sparkling outdoor pool, adorned with waterfalls, captures the essence of island luxury, while a beachfront bar beckons with a tempting selection of Caribbean cocktails. Here, every detail is designed to whisk you away into relaxation, from the cheerful Palm trees swaying in the breeze to the breathtaking ocean views from each private balcony.
