DINING
You might want to divide your palates into countries because here, they’ve got a good global variety: Italian, Mexican, Asian and Japanese. Add to all these a buffet with an American breakfast and a grill/steakhouse that’s sizzlin’. A lot of these nosh spots mix in local flavors that are influenced by African and Spanish cooking so you’ll be in for a taste-bud slaying extravaganza.
BARS/NIGHTLIFE
Drinks, glorious drinks. Yes, you can get your cocktails on all over this fab place, starting with the poolside bar that has a swim-up bar. You can mosey on over to the lounge, then imbibe al fresco on the terrace, and if you can’t sleep (or don’t want to), the sports bar is open 24 hours. Cheers.
BEACHES AND POOLS
The beautiful white sands of the luminous Arena Gordo Beach will be where you’ll want to set up camp. When you want to move to the pool, you can dive (or jump) into one of three sparkling pools, one of which has an adjoining whirlpool bath. And lucky for you, the kiddos even have their own pool. The water and beach therapy here are awe-some.
