Pool & Water Slide
Two tropical pools with a view of the ocean are available for swimming, as well as a kiddie pool with whimsical sea turtles painted on the bottom for small children to enjoy. The main pool is large and situated right next to the Hang Ten Bar & Grill. This is a good place to relax on a lounge chair and order cocktails and Ahi Sashimi appetizers.
The other pool is more active and includes a fun water-slide, and a tropical waterfall in a lush setting. A smaller waterfall descends into the shallow kiddie pool. There are also two hot tubs to sit in and enjoy views of the ocean and swaying palm trees.
