One pool is adults-only and both pools are heated; pool access is generally sunrise to sunset. If you plan cabana service or special requests, contact the concierge or pool attendants after arrival.

- Two swimsuits (one drying while you wear the other)
- Light cover-up or sarong and a sun hat
- Waterproof phone pouch and sunglasses
- Flip-flops or water shoes

| Room tip | Why it helps |
|---|---|
| Reserve a room with 'Ocean View' or 'Oceanfront' in the name | You’ll get direct Atlantic sights from the private balcony |
| Consider a Cabana Terrace room | Easier ground-level access to the pool and beach |
| Request a Peloton for select suites if you want cycling | Available as an add-on in some suites |
Dining, dress code and going out
On-site restaurants include Florie's (breakfast and dinner with an 'Elevated Resort Casual' dress code), Florie's Bar, Seaway (oceanfront seafood, smart-casual), and Cocoanut Café for pastries and coffee. Pool & beach dining follows a relaxed beach-casual standard.
Pack one or two smart-casual dinner outfits (lightweight fabrics work best in Palm Beach weather) plus a pair of nicer shoes for Florie's or evenings at the bar. For Seaway, think casual seaside smart: collared shirts/linen and neat sandals or loafers.
- One dressier outfit for Florie's dinner (men: collared shirt; women: sundress or smart separates)
- Casual beach clothes for Seaway and Pool/Beach dining
- Light jacket or wrap for indoor air conditioning
