The gym has several machines. I noted three treadmills and two stationary bikes. The breakfast buffet included various items. I enjoyed fresh king coconuts and egg hoppers. The beach offers direct access. Beach towels and beds were provided, which I liked.
The air conditioning was difficult to adjust correctly.
