These pictures are taken standing at the north side of the lobby. In the first picture, the area on the far right, at the back is where all of the buses etc come in. The small desk at the left is the reception. There were two small desks ( there is just a hint of the second one to the right of the first one) Nothing like the huge reception desks one expects in hotels. As you can see, most of the building is open to the outside.
Moving to the right of the previous picture is the other side of the lobby, with the Lobby Bar on the right side.
Then, if we continue moving to the right this is the outdoor sitting area of the lobby bar. We would sit here during the day, but move into the bar in the evening.
Here we have moved further clockwise and are now facing north toward the upper pool, which was an infinity pool--sort of neat. This is where we did our swimming.
And here is the upper pool from just in about 20 feet forward from where I took the last picture. The low building on the left was the pool bar--yes, just outside the Lobby bar.
Our first day at the resort, we didn't travel much further than this. If you look at the maps you'll see the two main restaurants between our suite and the areas above. Initially our butler made dinner reservations between the two of them, on alternate nights. Sunday night we were in "Eggselence". By dinner time, we had been up for over 18 hours, and were exhausted. As it turned out neither of us was very hungry and we tried to eat but just couldn't get more than a few mouthfuls in. I apologized explaining that we were too tired to eat. The next day a member of staff , upon meeting us said "oh, you're the tired people". I wasn't too pleased at being talked about that way amongst the staff. More about this next time.
