“The adults-only policy definitely sets a tone of tranquility, ideal for those seeking a peaceful escape right on the beach. Themed dining nights add a touch of local flavor, and having complimentary kayaks available encourages exploring the lagoon. For families needing more space, the beach house option, with its full kitchen and outdoor dining, feels like a home away from home.”
