And there’s something for everyone to do. Zoom out to sea on your own speedboat. Take to the turquoise water on paddle boards. Play a match of tennis. For lazy days, relax in the dreamy beachside daybed. Revitalize in the steam room after a long afternoon massage. The amenities alone are worth the hefty price tag.
