The resort offers a variety of accommodations, ranging from hotel rooms to one, two, and three-bedroom apartments and penthouses. The food and beverage offerings include La Mesa restaurant, which seats up to 80 guests for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as the On the Rocks swim-up pool bar and bespoke conferencing facilities for up to 100 guests.
