Just in case, though, if you plan to go to bed early, ask for a room away from the pool.

The hotel's Tower Bar, which has indoor/outdoor seating along the boardwalk, and JRDN restaurant, serving contemporary steak and seafood (there's also an eight-seat sushi bar), are worth checking out whether you're staying here or not.
