Why not begin your evening with a sundowner in our informal oceanfront Teepee Bar? Theres nothing quite like sipping a rum punch and watching the sun slowly sink behind the Caribbean Sea. Or you may prefer cocktails and hors doeuvres in our elegant Lounge Bar, the friendly staff and lively rhythms guaranteeing a memorable occasion.

Your table at the oceanfront Seagrape Restaurant then awaits, the award-winning Euro-Caribbean cuisine of our European Executive Chef showcasing the finest local produce and seafood.
