A large sliding glass door opened to a spacious balcony with a small wooden table and two chairs that overlooked the mangroves and water features. A small plunge pool was a welcome amenity, and I could imagine lounging here with a book and a cocktail in hand for hours on end.

The bathroom was equally sleek, with a large walk-in rain shower, a double vanity with a marble countertop, and a separate water closet. The Le Labo toiletries were a nice touch, and the plush bathrobes and slippers were perfect for lounging around the room.
