Nicole's
Seating 60 guests, Nicole's is the resort's fine dining venue, offering a blend of stylishly presented, Caribbean-influenced cuisine. Warm red walls and dark wood trim create a cozy ambience, and rattan, bamboo and soft upholstered furnishings convey a welcoming, Caribbean feel. Please note: There is a US$40 per person surcharge to dine at Nicole's for guests on the all-inclusive plan (adults and kids).

Bars and Lounges
Guests will get that relaxed, on-island feeling from the moment they arrive at The Verandah, and are welcomed with a refreshing fruit punch at the centrally located Lobby Bar.
A total of four bars will keep Verandah guests cool with a wide range of signature cocktails, top-shelf liquor, wine, beer and non-alcoholic beverages.

Rasta Bar - Guests can get into the island spirit at this beachside bar, a funky little shack just off the main lobby building. Offering a full complement of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages in a totally relaxed setting.

Poolside Bar - Guests who don't wish to stray far from the pool can cool off at the poolside bar, outfitted in natural stone in keeping with the surroundings. By night, lively international-style music and entertainment will keep the fun flowing and your toes tapping after dark.

Lobby Bar - The expansive and centrally located main lounge also overlooks the pool and winding, limestone-walled pathways of The Common. This is the place where guests can meet and socialize, with fun and refreshment on tap both day and night, with a striking decor that blends rough hewn dark pine with sleek granite.

Tiki Bar - This relaxing bar is perched above Lover's Beach, offering amazing views of the entire cove. The Tiki Bar offers a light lunch menu, snacks, your favorite Caribbean beers and non-alcoholic beverages. This is the ideal spot to pull up a barstool, kick off your flip-flops and enjoy the fresh sea breeze.

Coffee Shop - The air-conditioned Coffee Shop is located adjacent to main bar, serving barista coffees, speciality teas, cakes and early morning savoury delights. This venue offers a welcomed cool break from the mid-day sun or early morning stop-off before a day of island exploring.
