Seven restaurants include Chez Isabelle, with French cuisine; Agave, serving Mexican fare; a Mediterranean eatery, Barcelona; Toscana with Italian food; Spice, an Asian restaurant; and the Lobster House.
The Grill serves continental breakfast and lunch and at night becomes a steakhouse.
The resort’s ten bars are spread throughout the property, including the Martini Bar in the lobby, the swim-up pool bar, and the X-Lounge on the beach.
The wedding package includes wedding coordinating services, the officiant, wedding outfit preparation, a complimentary room for the groom the night before the wedding if available, use of the resort’s beachside wedding gazebo, a horse-drawn carriage, wedding cake, sparkling wine, and discounted spa services.

Not everyone thrills to the food, and when tradewinds aren't blowing the mosquitoes get to work.
