You step off the air‑conditioned coach and the first thing that greets you is a rush of water and high color — slides curving like bright ribbons through palms and gardens. The hilltop setting opens into a patchwork of pools; fountains laugh at the edges while the lazy river invites you to drift and watch the island sun play on the surface.
