Room Selection

Request Pavilion 105 for the most breathtaking sunset line

Ocean Pavilion 105 sits slightly elevated above the tree canopy. You get 180-degree unobstructed views across Pansea Bay as the sun drops right into the horizon.

Dining Secret

Book the private beach BBQ setup by 4:00 PM

The staff will set up a candle-lit dining table directly on Pansea Beach. It feels completely private since Pansea is shielded by headlands.
