A very comfy and elegant pool area!. I felt a sense of total ease and tranquility here. Although I hadn't experienced any of the deejays nor party-style poolside events, I did love the decor and the great customer service. Most events are during weekends but weekdays are kind of quiet and no -eventful. I was allowed to carry in a salad which I had bought inside of the hotel and I liked that. The bar does have its own food and drink menu. The few tropical cocktails I ordered were very tasty with just the right amount of fruitiness and ice. Towels were large and lush and seating & lounge chairs ample. One drawback: Shower on the south end of the pool area was defunct. Otherwise, I regretted having to leave.
