Conrad has a nice pool area though if you don't need the beach.

The Conrad has one of the best exec lounges I've ever seen in a Hilton property, but unless you're Diamond I wouldn't think you'd get access without specifically booking an exec room.
Thanks for feedback. I booked the Conrad for four nights, and asked for paid upgrade to Exec Room. ^
