which is voted one of the best pools in the united states it's a great big infinity pool right on
the beach right next to the beach you can see there's plenty of deck chairs and lounge chairs
and cabanas this is in the early evening so it's not as bright right now but there's plenty of sun
in the late morning and afternoon and then we move over to the rum fire restaurant which is one of
the one of several restaurants on the resort it's a beautiful bar and restaurant open air
