Santuario by Day

At 7 AM, Santuario opens and guests can greet the day with strong coffee, fresh fruit smoothies, and yummy pastries on any of the lounges or terraces that fill the space. The structure is also the first place that greets most guests during their vacation, being the gateway to the parking area and taxi pick up and drop off.

Santuario by Night

Every night, Santuario boasts a different assortment of astounding acts, from traditional dance, to jazz, to singers, to acrobatics, and live art preparation. Guests can enjoy these performances on the main lounge, or relax with a drink prepared by Santuario’s expert mixologists on any of the many side lounges or terraces. And after the acts wrap up for the night, a DJ mixes live music until close.

Acts change nightly, so see your concierge for a schedule of that evening’s performances.
