Discover the Perfect Movie Night

Enjoy a magical evening under the stars, as you relax and delight in a unique cinema experience. Watch movies, family favourites, and sometimes even sporting events on our massive outdoor screen.

Connect with Your Kids

Spend some quality time with the kids as you play, swim, and explore the fun-filled features of our tropical lagoon-style pool. Indulge your children’s natural curiosity with an excursion into our mysterious grotto cave. The entrance beneath the waterfall beckons, its unknown interior wrapped in mystery and demanding exploration. (All children are to be supervised at all times in the Grotto Cave)
