Soak in the sunshine from our newly renovated pool area, with direct access to Cowell Beach. Swim, float or wade in the heated outdoor swimming pool. When you are ready, wrap yourself in a plush towel and relax atop a chaise lounge or unwind and enjoy the beach views on a pillow-lined convertible cabana bed. Watch the waves while cozying up to a fire pit or enjoy the sunset from a high-top table. Snack and drinks are served from Shorebreak Drink + Dine poolside bar.
