DINNING The Rock House features two distinct culinary venues: Vita Restaurant and Cave Bar. At Vita, you can enjoy al fresco Adriatic cuisine with Caribbean influences, paired with Rock ‘N’ Roll-inspired cocktails, all while taking in stunning ocean views from a perch over 30 feet above the sea. Dinner is served from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM, with live music on Thursdays at 6:30 PM, and breakfast is also available. Just steps away, Cave Bar offers an intimate ambiance with natural rock walls and handcrafted cocktails. It hosts live DJ sessions on Saturdays at 5:30 PM and operates daily from 11:00 AM to 10:30 PM. AMENITIES There’s plenty to do at Rock House. First, you can’t miss swimming in the island’s largest infinity pool, an impressive 100-foot expanse lined with private cabanas and a Beach Club. After my gym workout, I took a morning swim and had the pool nearly to myself. It’s the centerpiece of the property and the perfect place to unwind. The resort also offers water bikes, paddleboards, and clear kayaks for guests to fully experience ocean life. For those who want more adventure, guided kayak tours, private island day trips, and activities like snorkeling and scuba diving are available. There’s also a waterfront yoga experience to enhance your wellness journey. Plus, Rock House’s gym, which overlooks the pool, is fully equipped with the latest cardio machines, free weights, and machines—a great spot if you like to keep up with your workouts while on vacation. SUSTAINABILITY I noticed the resort’s great sustainability efforts, which include repurposing native limestone, planting over 4,000 indigenous trees (supported by an on-site plant nursery), and offering eco-friendly amenities such as bamboo room keys and reusable water bottles. Grey water harvesting is used throughout the resort to help preserve and minimize water use.
