Amenity highlights: Guests choose among three swimming pools. A large, free-form main pool located adjacent to the beach contains a children's section and is surrounded by an expansive stone sundeck furnished with thatch-roof palapas and padded lounge chairs. Two small pools, one next to a 10-foot diameter hot tub, lie half-hidden among the villas arrayed along the sea. Toward the south end of the beach, a 20-foot-high promontory called Love Rock interrupts the beach. Famous as a wedding site, Love Rock also serves as a barrier protecting a 75-yard stretch of white sand south of it, creating a semi-private beach where in-the-know guests retreat for utter tranquility.

On the resort's street side following the gentle contours of the grassy landscape is a 400-yard track with a soft surface for early-morning jogging.
