The spacious rooms and suites are luxuriously designed and elegantly appointed with a rich, tropical décor in keeping with the resort’s beachfront setting. Guestrooms in the main building above the first floor have private balconies and the tower rooms all offer stunning sea views.

When you’re not enjoying a day on the beach, the resort has an outdoor pool surrounded by tropical landscapes – just swim up to the bar and order yourselves a refreshing cold drink. There’s also a children’s activity programme. Or if you fancy a day out, there’s plenty to enjoy nearby – a water park with over 35 thrilling water adventures for all ages, Moody Gardens; a science and nature wonderland featuring a Rainforest Pyramid, IMAX theatres and lush gardens, island golf courses, fishing off the pier or a harbour tour perhaps?

Rooms are air conditioned with WiFi, cable TV, hair dryer, ironing equipment and coffee maker.
