The resort features two pools and a 12-foot-diameter children's
pool. A courtyard pool surrounds a sundeck island. A
45-by-25-foot pool occupies a terrace above the beach, which
runs along the resort's 200-yard sea frontage—part of the
6-mile, powdery white-sand beach fringing Cancun Island's
eastern shore. Sand sunning terraces come furnished with
thatched-roof palapas offering snoozing shade.
