To enjoy the resort for the day, visitors may purchase a Day Pass, which is required for access to all amenities — including the pools, activities, and our restaurants.

Your Sunset Savings F&B credit can be used at Fins Bar & Chill or the Tiki Bar, perfect for sipping, snacking, and soaking up those late‑day island vibes. Day Pass guests may not bring in outside food or beverages. Visitors must follow all resort rules and keep the good vibes going. Guests are responsible for the behavior of their visitors, and visitors may only be on property while the registered guest is present.
Swimming Pool Guidelines
Our pool area is all about sunshine, good vibes, and safe splashing. To keep the fun flowing for everyone, please keep these island‑easy guidelines in mind:
- Lifeguards are not always on duty, so swim at your own risk.
- When lifeguards are present, their guidance keeps everyone safe — please follow their direction.
- Slides are only available when they’re open and supervised by lifeguards.
- Guests under 18 must stay actively supervised by an adult. Unsafe or disruptive behavior may result in removal from the pool area.
- Infants and small children must wear swim diapers with a waterproof cover to help keep the water clean.
- Any child who cannot swim must wear a life preserver in or around the pool.
- We provide the island soundtrack — personal speakers or sound devices aren’t permitted in the pool area.
- Proper swimwear is required at all times. Nudity and overly revealing swimwear aren’t allowed.
- No outside beverages are permitted. We’ve got plenty of refreshing drinks for adults and kids at the pool bars. Glass containers and coolers are not allowed.
- Excessive drinking, intoxication, or unsafe alcohol use will result in immediate removal from the pool area.
- For everyone’s safety, no diving, no running, and no throwing balls or pool toys in the pool.
- Oversized floats aren’t permitted, and splashing should stay friendly — no excessive splashing, especially near the swim‑up bar.
