Restaurant Fifty-Nine, which is located
at the Clubhouse, you can enjoy USDA
prime beef and fresh seafood that is

and has an impressive wine list, as
well as a full bar. On the lobby floor

clever creations such as Truffle Tots
or Horseradish Onion Rings, along
with salads, sandwiches and other
tasty offerings. At Fragmentary Blue
on the Lodge’s top floor, you can see
a 360-degree panorama of the resort’s
breathtaking views while enjoying
a cocktail or craft brew with a Skirt
Steak Taco or other small bites. In the
pool area, there is Hemy’s (short for
Hemmingway’s, as writers are the
inspiration throughout the resort),
where you can enjoy a crisp salad, as
well as sweet and savory snacks at
a full-service bar while relaxing in
your chaise lounge or private cabana.
Their flagship, SottoTerra Ristorante, is
in a chic, modern room of cool blues
and grays against white marble and
linen that is both intimate and elegant.
This restaurant features classic Italian
cuisine, such as tortiglioni pasta with
fennel sausage and marinara and an
unbelievable stove oven meatball.

with its natural surroundings,
