8. Their lobby is so awesome! I enjoyed it, very spacious and it looks like an art gallery and every item is for sale. I heard these furniture were showcased during the recent APEC Summit.
Things to consider when having your weekend stay.
1. During midday, the scourching hot will limit you from doing things. Don't worry, you still have plenty of time in the afternoon and early morning.
2. They have corkage fee, bringing food is not allowed though I saw some guests bringing in food.
3. You should bring your own car, there are no public transportation in the area, as this is 30 minutes away from Clark. Don't worry they have a room for your drivers.
4. The food at the Palette is not that delicious besides from super slooooow service and small serving. Nevertheless, the interiors are still great for photo ops. :(
5. They close the wave pool at 6pm but the other pool is open until 10pm.
