Such an unexpected gem in the evening, especially when live music is playing on Friday nights.

Be sure to make your reservation for Tuesday or Saturday evenings to enjoy the romantic island vibe of Correy Forbes or Dwayne Thomas.

While the sunsets from the Infiniti Bar are some of the island's best, the setting once the sun goes down is equally impressive.
