Club Tropicana

It is two venues side by side on the same sand: a barbecue on the left, a beach brasserie on the right, with loungers and palms between them and the sea in front. Brass Boer, the restaurant run under three-star chef Jonnie Boer, is on the same resort — so a day here can end with the most ambitious dinner on the island without moving the car.

Open Monday to Saturday from 09:00 to 23:00, with the kitchen from 12:00 to 22:00 and a snack menu between 16:00 and 17:30. On Sunday it is for resort guests only. Day passes cost around forty dollars a person, are limited in number, are not sold on Sunday and are valid from 08:00 to 23:00; reserve up to a week ahead on +599 787 7108 or buy at the front desk on the day. Half a day to a full day.
