The Sandbox

"Food here is pretty good. We enjoyed the fish tacos. Cocktails are pricey ($25 each) but really good. What kills this place is the terrible service. It took us 30 minutes to flag down someone just to get the check. Pool side service is even worse. There were several times we placed orders that just never came. One of the days during stay they opened late and we were told that 5/5 of the servers called out so they had to rush to call in new staff. This entire 1 Hotel is short staffed and poorly managed."

"Over priced for what you get. Mini garden side salad shown below was $30 +++++ and I was starving 10 minutes later."

"The pool is beautiful, but if you’re looking for fun as a family, this is not the place. The vibe is very serious and elitist. Our family felt quite out of place. I ordered a $24 salad thinking it was a meal, but it was the size of a side salad. To add protein would have been another $15-19. If you’re staying at the resort I’m sure it’s a great option, but as a family who was just looking for a good dinner we were very disappointed. A few nights prior we went to the Lava Lava Beach Club and we had the time of our lives! I’d recommend there instead."

"Standard selection of pool-side fare, including a lovely smashburger and a selection of flatbreads. The fries were wonderfully crisp, and the burger was juicy and flavorful. Decent selection of wines and cocktails. Service was friendly and quick for island time."

"Beautiful little poolside restaurant with a lovely view over the pools and palm trees. However the first time we came we ordered the guacamole nachos which was an unreasonable price considering the surprisingly small size. The second time we were disappointed because after specifically visiting for the flatbreads we were only informed after sitting down that they weren’t available due to oven cleaning, however in replacement we tried the salad bowl which was delicious! Unfortunately another point was the service was very slow although all the staff were really friendly. There was still a great relaxed atmosphere."
