Sleep-smart preparation before you go out
Good sleep starts before the first song. Use these simple, proven habits to make winding down easier later.
Create a sleep-friendly room setup
- Cool the room with air-conditioning before you head out; a cooler space helps you settle more easily on return.
- Pack earplugs and consider a white-noise app; with complimentary Wi‑Fi (also available on the beach) you can stream soothing sounds on your device.
- Charge your devices easily—rooms provide both 220 V and 110 V outlets.
Keep your energy steady
- Hydrate early and often; pair each cocktail with water.
- Snack smart—a light bite before you go can keep you comfortable through the night.
Set up a smooth landing
- Lay out sleepwear and toiletries so your post-party routine is effortless.
- Keep a glass of water by the bed and dim any bright screens before you go.
The ideal wind-down after the party
When you get back, small rituals make a big difference.
- Take a cool shower—rooms feature rainfall showers with luxe amenities that help you relax quickly.
- Brew a soothing tea with your in-room coffee and tea facilities.
- Keep lights low and warm to cue rest.
- If you enjoy background sound, use your phone or the room’s 43-inch smart TV with premium channels to play low-volume ambient audio for a few minutes.
