Practical tips for dining on property
Make reservations for Ario and Tesoro when possible, especially during peak season or on weekend evenings; casual venues and beach bars generally accept walk-ins. Check current hours with the concierge, since some venues list variable hours or entertainment schedules.
If you need 21+ dining or adult-only seating, remember Tesoro is the resort’s designated 21-and-over dining room and Paradise by Sirene is the adults-only lodging enclave. For quick coffee or market items, use Mosaico or Café San Marco, and bring identification if dining at adults-only venues.
- Confirm hours and reservation requirements with the concierge upon arrival.
- Dress codes: Ario (business-casual) vs. most venues (casual/resort-casual).
- Parents: many venues are family-friendly, but Tesoro is 21+ only.
