Visitors will recognize the resort's mystical décor when they first come upon the Mandalay's façade - known as the Valley of the Waterfalls - featuring firepots with cascading waters and illuminating flames that shoot more than 20 feet in the air. Then there is the unique Surf and Beach area, a tropical water environment that has three swimming pools, nine private bungalows, 20 cabanas, a half-mile jogging track, a lazy river ride, a variety of beachside lounges, restaurants, and shops. Comprised of 1,700 tons of sand and 1.6 million gallons of water, the Surf and Sand Beach also features a wave pool measuring 41,178 square feet with adjustable waves.
The luxurious Shark Reef aquarium at the resort provides an intimate view of Indo-Pacific and South Pacific coral reefs. An abundance of tropical fish, including Pacific Black Tip Sharks, Soldier Fish, Angelfish, Puffers, and Butterfly fish also inhabit the aquariums making for a serene and dynamic atmosphere. The registration lobby aquarium measures 14 square feet tall and contains 12,200 gallons of seawater, while the Coral Reef Lounge aquarium measures eight feet tall and holds 2,600 gallons of sea water. Both aquariums are visually stunning and add to the overall tropical theme.
