We arrived at noon and since the room was not yet available we went up to the spa right away. It was a bit blustery outside but we sat out there under an overhang anyway. We had a tasty snack from room service while watching patrons head back and forth to the beach. Of course they had to pass the 3 million dollar Golden Mastodon on their way. We sat up on the third floor and could see the beach and the dome of the restaurant. A small shower finally let loose and we watched all of the folks retreat from the beach. Perfect timing for us as our masseuses were ready. The couples massage room was a beauty. There were murals with exotic birds and reptiles painted all over each wall. We had singing bowls placed on out nexus points and we could feel the vibrations right through to our chakras.
Hmmm, anyone leave a large set of herbivore bones covered in gold leaf?

The stairs are behind this tall wall and the restaurant roof just beyond
These funky plants were blowing in the breeze
