From your Deluxe Seaview room you'll have a wonderful view out over the ocean from your balcony – just the place for a leisurely cup of coffee before the day begins in earnest. You'll also find your room well-stocked with a satellite TV, telephone, hairdryer, room safe, with an optional mini fridge.
You'll find even more wonderful amenities as you make your way about the hotel and grounds. As well as the lagoon pool, there is a Jacuzzi, steam bath, sauna and the relaxing Diviya Spa.Other activities include beach volleyball and in-door games.
