Amenity highlights: Fine-grained and nearly as white as sugar, the beach runs 1,800 feet in front of the resort, providing ample room for uncrowded sunbathing. A main pool includes a large swim-up bar and one along the beachfront so swimmers can get away from pool activities. Another pool, this one smaller and quieter, lies along the beach.

Complimentary beginner's scuba-diving instruction takes place in a dive pool.

Insider tip: Where the main pool curls along the beach, a two-person alcove offers a couple a cozy spot from which to view sunsets through an opening thoughtfully provided in foliage bordering the pool.
