The resort’s second phase includes renovations to the 513 guest rooms and suites, including the Presidential Suite and four Vice Presidential Suites, which have been renovated to reflect the new design philosophy using earthy tones with complementing sea glass and grey, coupled with a contemporary and upscale twist including new entry way tile, vanities, tiled in showers, carpet, room paint and mural headboards that reflect the Marriott brand’s comfortable, modern aesthetic. Each guestroom features stunning ocean or island views, with large-format windows to allow guests to fully enjoy the surrounding landscape.
Additionally, each luxurious guest room is designed for optimal rest and productivity with architectural framing, contrasting finishes and thoughtful solutions to enhance a guest’s stay, such as:
- Convenient wall and lamp outlets outfitted with USB ports for multiple electronic devices
- Luxurious bedding with cotton-rich linens and fluffy pillows
- High-speed Wi-Fi and a large desk with a well-lit workspace, comfortable chair and plug-in panels
- 50-inch flat-panel TVs with the Marriott Entertainment Package, including premium cable and movie channels to keep guests well-entertained

The entire exterior of all buildings on premises have been freshly painted using a coating technology conducive to withstand the salt air environment.
