Facilities

  • Restaurants & bars
  • Good to Know

3 restaurants, pool bar, 3 bars

Minimum age 18 in Ocean View Bungalow, The Level Romance Oceanfront Pavilion and The Level Beach Pavilion.

Minimum stays: 4 nights at all times in The Level Romance Oceanfront Pavilion (6 nights over Christmas); 6 nights Christmas and New Year’s Eve period; 3 nights July and August.

Most of the beaches (largely on the east and south coasts) are tidal, so although it's not possible to swim at certain times of day, it means you can don a pair of reef shoes and walk right out along the beach towards the exposed coral.
