I approached the outside bar as I had several times before to note to the staff that I wanted to use one of their bean bag beds and order something to drink. The lady managing the bar became immediately hostile and started barking at me that there was a minimum spend for the use of their facilities. Having been there just 2 days prior I was puzzled by the change in policy, so when I asked for clarification the lady became enraged and was even more unpleasant, waving me away and yelling up to you! I was completely stunned. I could not believe that someone would talk to a customer in such a rude and disgusting manner. This middle aged bartender should not be in customer service with that kind of attitude. I didn 't care one bit about the minimum spend, in fact I planned on staying there all day and probably would 've spent more than the minimum, as I did the previous time. I also would 've continued to come almost on a daily basis for the next two weeks while I 'm on the island. Do yourself a favor and take your business elsewhere, where you will be treated with respect and where there 's more quality in the food and drinks as they were mediocre at best as echoed by other reviewers.

The lady taking my order at the bar seemed exasperated that I was there, as I had the audacity to actually try and order food at a restaurant. Speaking of the food, it was meh. I ordered a Caesar salad, and it tasted slightly fishy. I’m sure the seaside ambiance makes it a big draw, but I won’t be going back.
