 Picnic at hotel private balcony by private pool.

 Sarah made friends easily in the pool.

 The beach water is so clear...you can be waist deep and still see your feet!

 We pool and beach hopped a lot....there are 4 pools, one lagoon, and the beach we would go back and forth with throughout the day.

 The dark water slide the best!

 On the lagoon we rented paddle boats and kayaks.
