Daytime attire:

The daytime dress code guidelines encourage guests to think of breezy and polished outfits. Sundresses, tailored shorts, polos, and lightweight chinos fit the brief perfectly. It’s important to remember that swimwear is reserved for the pool area only, and guests must wear a cover-up when heading from the pool area to dining areas. 

Evening attire:

In the evenings, guests are advised to plan outfits that are refined yet relaxed. Ladies might opt for dresses, jumpsuits, elegant separates, fashionable jeans, and dressy sandals or trainers. Gentlemen are encouraged to choose collared shirts, knit tops, dressy jeans or trousers, loafers or smart trainers. Please note that shorts and t-shirts are reserved for the Terrace Café and Waves Grill during the evening. 

A few friendly reminders:  

  • Robes and slippers are for in-room use only
  • No baseball caps in fine dining venues at dinner
  • Flip-flops and athletic shoes are not permitted in restaurants/public areas after 6 pm
  • Distressed denim is not considered appropriate for evening wear
