Screen On The Beach Sofas and beanbags form part of this cosy outdoor scene. Sit back and relax in front of the large screen in this tropical setting. The projector flickers, the screen comes to life and you're transported – from world cinema to Hollywood blockbusters and kids' classics, the sound echoes across to the beach whilst celluloid voices punctuate the evening calm. Tuck in to some freshly cooked pop corn, island made ice cream or a cooling refreshment.

Cinema Paradiso? We’d like to think so

ICI It might sound crazy but finding fresh, tasty ice cream in an island resort is often as difficult as locating the proverbial ‘needle in a haystack”. Until now. Let’s face it. A beach holiday without ice cream isn’t a beach holiday at all.

That’s why we’ve created our very own ice cream brand, ICI. Just keep an eye out for our ice-cream man on his mobile cart.

Before you can say “extra scoop” you’ll be enjoying a generous serving of low-fat ice cream bursting with fresh ingredients.

There are always new and deliciously interesting flavor combos to try and you can choose between colorful punnets with wooden scoops or tasty handmade waffle cones, which are baked, formed and hardened as you wait…. Crunch, Munch...

Perfect after lunch.
