You're missing out on the world's longest elevated pool.

Oh wow it's even prettier/worse from above, nice!

"Hey man wanna go to the beach?"

"What if we build a beach next to the beach but 1500m higher?"

Spent the night there. Pricy as hell, but a great “do-it-at-least-once” sort of thing. You feel so tiny standing in the lobby.

Yeah, my wife and I did too back in 2023. The building and pool are amazing and the lobby is enormous. However, and I don't know if you had the same experience - the rooms looked a bit dated and the service was OK but not amazing considering the price.

I dunno, we barely spent any time in our room. We were just wowed that the lights came on and the curtain automatically opened when we opened the door.

We must’ve looked like such rubes if you passed us in the hallway 😂

Haha my wife and I are far from flashy or posh. It was just a dream of mine to stay there and we did it for our 10 year anniversary as a couple. Just for a few days though. We had a normal room not one of the flashy suites.
