Three-story buildings with newly modernized rooms line an average beach, which, like Club Med, sees seaweed mucking up the sands but offers miraculous water, and there are six restaurants to choose from within the 60-sq-km complex as well as a Six Senses Spa. Unlike all- inclusives, however, lunch, dinner and drinks aren’t included in the rates.
