The view of the ocean from the restaurant and the food made for a beautiful dinner and drinks at the end of the day especially at sunset. Breakfast was delicious as well.

This resort was amazing for our honeymoon trip! They gave us a phone for communication and for use around the island for a GPS. The staff was amazing with giving us recommendations and helping make reservations. One of our favorite rituals was the bedtime ritual with the nightly tea that we will definitely incorporate back home.
