The Verandah Resort & Spa Dining

Restaurants

The Verandah offers a range of dining experiences in three exciting restaurants, operated under the watchful eye of Executive Chef Ronaldo Collantes, a native of the Philippines. All three restaurants are centered in an expansive, centrally located activities complex on The Common, overlooking the pool and manicured grounds. It’s a meeting spot for old friends as well as a place to make new ones.

Seabreeze, the resort’s main restaurant, seats 100 guests and serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. It offers a wide range of a la carte choices that are sure to please guests of all ages. The lovely, open-air dining room is enhanced by light pine pergolas, ceiling fans and exposed beams and dark wood, with lofty vaulted ceilings for an airy, outdoor feeling.

Nicole’s, the fine-dining restaurant, seats 60 guests, and offers a blend of stylishly presented, Caribbean-inflected cuisine. Warm red walls and dark wood trim create a cozy ambience, and rattan, bamboo and soft upholstered furnishings create a welcoming, Caribbean feel.

Casual and fun, the Buccaneer seats 80 guests and serves lighter, family-friendly fare, such as pastas, pizza and burgers, as well as afternoon tea from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. daily.

Guests will get that relaxed, on-island feeling from the moment they arrive at The Verandah, and are welcomed with a refreshing fruit punch at the centrally located Lobby Bar.

A total of four bars will keep Verandah guests cool with a wide range of signature cocktails, top-shelf liquor, wine, beer and nonalcoholic beverages.

Guests can get into the island spirit at the beachside Rasta Bar, a funky little shack just off the main lobby building. It offers a full complement of nonalcoholic beverages in a totally relaxed and beachy setting.

Guests who don’t wish to stray far from the pool can cool off at the Pool Bar, outfitted in natural stone, in keeping with the surroundings.

By night, lively international-style music and entertainment will keep the fun flowing and your toes tapping after dark.

The expansive and centrally located main lounge also overlooks the pool and winding, limestone-walled pathways of the Common. It’s the place where guests can meet and socialize, with fun and refreshment on tap for both daytime and night, with décor that blends roughhewn dark pine with sleek granite.

Perched above Lover’s Beach is the relaxing Tiki Bar, offering killer views of the entire cove, light lunch, snacks, beer and nonalcoholic beverages. It’s the ideal place to pull up a barstool, kick off your flip-flops and enjoy the fresh sea breeze.
