The à la carte restaurant Maurice (at an additional charge) offers a varied selection in an intimate, elegant setting. Live cooking stations and a pizzeria add to the dining experience. Six bars offer refreshments throughout the day: whether you’re by the beach, at the pool, playing tennis or in the lobby, each has its own character and serves cocktails, freshly squeezed fruit juices, wine, espresso, fruity mocktails and healthy snacks. Comfortable loungers and subtle background music create a relaxing atmosphere at the pool bar, while the beach bar offers a peaceful retreat with wonderful sea views.
