A full English and Continental buffet breakfast includes pancakes and a range of organic options, while the lunch and dinner menu offers popular American and European cuisine.

L''Albufera - A fine-dining restaurant, open Monday to Saturday evenings. Tables are well-spaced on polished wood floors, and brass lights are mounted on the silk-covered walls. Diners sit in armed, mahogany chairs to enjoy modern Spanish and international cuisine and a wine list focusing on New World labels.

Cream-and-burgundy-colored armchairs and soft pink-and-caramel sofas are scattered around a central U-shaped bar, where wines, spirits, beers, snacks, and a range of cocktails are served. Open all day and evening, when a pianist plays soft music at the grand piano.
