The property is beautiful and so expensive. The Restaurant vibe couldn’t be more beautiful. You walk down the path and see the manta rays feeding. The staff is relaxed, but still attentive and very friendly. The menu was more innovative than other restaurants I’ve seen on the island.

Very busy but the manager Bonnie was all over everything. We were early and ended up grabbing dinner at the bar due to a flash rain shower. Jerry the bartender was fantastic and attentive and made exceptional cocktails. Nice happy hour from 5-7.
