From 7pm until 9pm you can chill, relax, by the pool side or take a swim while enjoying the beautiful sunset. Then from 9pm until early next morning, we party in all white dressed attire from head to toe while splashing on some glitter & gold. With fire burners, dancers/performers, and drum beats from the one and only, Bata Beats, you can dance with us on the main deck by the sea or on the upper deck where the open ball room gives you that fresh ocean breeze with a view.
