Before you book
Is there a meal plan, and what does it cover?
The resort's long-stay package copy references a structured board plan — daily breakfast at Seasalt plus a dinner rotation across Seasalt, Pibati, Yakitori Bar or Umami's à la carte menu (teppanyaki excluded), with a USD 75 food credit toward other venues including the teppanyaki counter and The Shack. The plan itself isn't named on the pages we could reach, so we confirm the exact package title and inclusions with the resort before booking.
