The facilities also include a golf course, fishing and snorkelling, which suits travelers who want to spend their days outdoors. When it is time to eat, WSW The Steakhouse serves steak and seafood alongside wine. The hotel also has a bar and a coffee shop, and vending machines for drinks and snacks fill the gaps in between.
