BEYOND THE VILLAS
While the villas offer unparalleled privacy and comfort, Silver Cove also boasts exceptional shared spaces designed to enhance your experience:
The Infinity Pool: At the very edge of Silver Cove is the stunning infinity pool, complete with a water fountain feature and panoramic views of the ocean and the ship.

The pool area also features a large, shaded pergola with extra-comfy lounge seating.
The Beaches: Silver Cove offers not just one, but two distinct beach experiences. The main Silver Cove beach features the classic white sand and calm waters, perfect for families and relaxation. A short stroll away, accessible by swimming or a leisurely walk around the point, lies another beautiful private beach with plenty of loungers and shaded areas, offering a slightly different ambiance.
The Moët & Chandon Bar: Whether you choose to gather with friends or simply savor the stunning views, the bar offers a sophisticated and relaxed atmosphere along the boardwalk overlooking water.
The Silver Cove Restaurant: Exclusively for Silver Cove guests, this restaurant offers an elevated dining experience with a tropical menu inspired by the Bahamas. From refreshing watermelon feta salad and flavorful jerk chicken, to juicy cheeseburgers and a variety of fresh ceviches, there's something to tantalize every palate. Enjoy your meal in the covered dining area with fans or al fresco under an umbrella, all while soaking in the tropical ambiance. The adjacent Peroni bar adds a touch of Italian flair.
