One sits by the beach or pool and swims in either the ocean or the pool and maybe eats at the restaurant. It all seems pretty straightforward to me, so I'm not certain why the designers felt like they had to wait to make decisions and/or finish construction.
My hunch is that they didn’t want to postpone the opening of the resort because the beach club was not 100% complete. And I think that’s perfectly fine as long as the remaining beach club work isn’t too distracting to the guests.
The one thing that I think the beach club could use (well, apart from having some vegetation grow) is to have some ‘lounging areas’ other than just the chaise longues.
It's not as simple as that. Aman is wondering if they may need a lager pool area, so there was a thought to build a third pool (OK 4th if you count the kid's pool) so that nobody would feel crowded. They are looking at how people use the beach club, and how crowded it gets before they decide, which I think is pretty sensible. Also, Ed Tuttle didn't like the sand and was having it changed - that's Aman for you!
