OK, thanks. That is a nice location for a restaurant, for sure.

Yes Pat, it is Tortuga. We stayed at RI last year and enjoyed breakfast there very much.

That's right a man made beach right in front of the villas and the marina buildings. I hope they connect it with the beach in front of flamboyant. It just keeps getting better.

I don't see how a beach could possibly last there with all the erosion that will take place from wave action. Even the personnel at the marina doubt it would stand up. It's not as protected as the Flamingo/SBR beach is and the high rock retaining wall protecting the pool creates a high barrier with deep water up against it. Will be interesting to see if it does indeed happen.

I agree...the water at the rocks is quite deep...those huge rocks are there for a reason

The Westin Dawn Beach does a great breakfast as well as Sunday Brunch outdoors overlooking the pools with full-on views of the ocean although you are set back and not "right on the ocean" you clearly have an ocean view.
