The pool here is the main event. Salted. Warmed (by sunlight I believe). Open all day and night. Lighted (though it's a bit haphazard - some areas have lights, some aren't working, some have fancy LED glitter lights, some have empty holes in the floor with electrical cables sticking out! - lots of work to be done).

And from the Lagoon Rooms
There are little benches to sit on...
This is the kid's pool. Should be called the baby pool.
They don't have any floats and toys for kids/adults - I hope they add complimentary noodles, rafts and the like because the pool really is the main thing.
And the poolside stuff... not that many - I wonder if there will be issues when the hotel is full...
Below are pictures of the bars. Smoquee isn't open yet.
Walking out through a glass door at Wa'la leads you to one of the two Jimbaran seafood areas. Coming from a region with plentiful seafood, I didn't bother with eating on the beach, but it really is just a hop and a step away.
Next to LeM is the Intercon...
The sand isn't the fine and powdery sort - it's the slightly muddy sticky sort. No pretty shells to find either. Didn't seem very attractive to me.
