Before you book

What are the meal plans and dining options like?

Seven restaurants and bars run in rotation — Ocean Terrace for buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner; Charcoal for a signature dinner-only grill; Skipjack, Tribe, Smugglers Shack and Hammock covering pool, sunset and beach bars; and Petit Bistro exclusively for children, with cooking classes on offer. Adrift handles private dining escapes on request, and in-villa dining runs 24 hours off an international menu. Avani's site doesn't publish which meal plan level includes which venues — IMJ confirms your specific package against this list before booking.
