sleep
- All rooms include outdoor space, floor-to-ceiling windows, and walk-in closets large enough to fit a pack 'n play.

- Ocean view rooms are worth the upgrade — the sunset views are fantastic.
- All suites include a sofa bed in the living room.
- Some guests note that soundproofing isn’t great.

play

- Treat yourself to a cabana on “Mangrove Island” in the middle of the lazy river — it comes with a personal pool butler.
- For a fun surprise, play hide-and-seek near the waterfall cavern — there's a button that summons champagne.
