“Redefining Destination Resorts”

When life gives you an unswimmable beach, what do you do? Make your own Private Ocean – complete with water sports including paddleboarding and canoeing – and another one on the rooftop, plus a series of children’s pools. From mahjong rooms to mini golf and climbing walls, the fun factor here is strong without impinging on the cool adult vibe complete with sophisticated design.
