• Head straight to the beach—the resort offers direct access to three beaches.
• Float into vacation mode in one of five salt-water pools.
• Enjoy beach beds and towels provided for hotel guests.
• Settle in for a leisurely breakfast at Cabana Beach or lunch/dinner at Mood Beach.
• Book a beachside massage at Kurpa Spa or get a quick workout at the Blue Maxx fitness center (complimentary for guests).
• Browse the on-site gift shop for convenience items or visit Boutique Blush for swimwear and beach essentials.

All without carrying your luggage.

Arrival Day: A Bag‑Free Game Plan

1. Drop bags at the front desk

   • Tell the team you’d like to use complimentary luggage storage while you enjoy the resort.

2. Change into resort mode

   • Pack a lightweight day bag with swimwear, sunscreen, sandals, and a cover-up so you’re beach-ready in minutes.

3. Ease into the island

   • Start with a dip in the salt-water pools or stroll to the beachfront. Grab a lounger—towels are provided for hotel guests.

4. Refuel by the sea

   • Settle in at Cabana Beach for breakfast and lunch or Mood Beach for lunch and dinner. Both offer kids’ meals and oceanside ambiance.

5. Add a wellness touch

   • Consider a Kurpa Spa beach massage to shake off jet lag, or re-energize at Blue Maxx.

6. Collect keys, not baggage

   • Return for check-in starting at 15:00. Your luggage will be ready when you are.

Pro tip: If you’re landing late (after 22:00), notify the property in advance—the team will be ready to welcome you.

Departure Day: Stretch Your Vacation Without the Suitcase

1. Check out by 11:00 and store your bags

   • Use contactless check-out if you like, then leave your luggage with the front desk to keep exploring hands-free.

2. Soak up final beach time

   • Reserve a beach cabana or settle into a beach bed; towels are complimentary. Or float one last time in the pools.

3. Enjoy a final meal

   • Opt for a relaxed seaside lunch at Mood Beach or a sun-soaked bite at Cabana Beach.

4. Freshen up before you go

   • Use the complimentary post check-out shower rooms (subject to availability) to rinse off and change for your flight.

5. Head out smoothly

   • Retrieve your bags and depart. If you arranged the airport shuttle (paid), confirm your pick-up time with the front desk; if you’re driving, free self-parking makes timing easy.
