Excellent if you want to dance on a solid surface vs beach. Perfect for your cocktail party and dinner reception.

The Pool Area sits near the resort’s main pool and looks out toward the Caribbean, making it a popular choice for receptions.

It’s an open-air space where you can host dinner and then move straight into dancing without changing locations.

The lighting here is easy to work with in the evening, and the seating setup feels relaxed but organized.

One of the biggest perks here is the hard surface.

It makes a difference for tables, heels, and dancing.

You still get the outdoor feel and ocean air, just with a layout that’s easier for a mid-sized guest list.
