Restaurants & Bars

Ocean Kiss - Whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner, find flavours to suit any palate. In the mornings, the breakfast buffet offers an array of Asian and Western favourites. Sip that first cup of coffee inside the tastefully decorated interior or start the morning on the long outdoor deck with the full glory of the sunrise over the bay unfolding before you. For lunch or dinner, choose from among the many international dishes on our specially designed à la carte menu.

Tree Tops – Sky Dining - This unique restaurant reveals the most romantic and exclusive dining journeys within the resort. From a private sala in a tree top canopy with sensational sea views, elevated beauty sets the perfect ambience for a luxurious culinary experience. Menus devised by Executive Chef take inspiration from the island’s bounty and beyond to bring world flavours to your table, complemented by our extensive wine list and the connoisseurship of our award winning resident Wine Guru.

Pool Bar - Soak in the sun and watch the tide roll in as you sip on an icy cold fruit smoothie or fresh cocktail. During the day, snack on crisp salads, light dishes and an array of refreshing drinks by the side of the pool. In the evening, sink into plush beanbag cushions and watch the sun go down as you bask in the laid-back tropical island vibe.
