Concierge.com's insider take:
This ultrachic room takes the lush life to its ultimate recline: bed. There are 12 for noshing and/or napping, as well as traditional sit-down tables for those who prefer sitting up straight. The menu is very nouvelle Caribbean, with standouts like ceviche with ginger syrup, artichoke carpaccio (actually a warm, tangy salad with goat cheese, boiled egg, and honey-walnut dressing), and grilled sea scallops with herb risotto, asparagus, and saffron mayonnaise. Then kick back to the Buddha Bar tunes and sip bartender Harold Solognier's prizewinning concoction, the Celebrity martini—raspberry-infused vodka, Cointreau, lime and pineapple juices, Champagne, and a star fruit garnish.
Open daily from 6 pm; kitchen closes at 11 pm and the bar closes between 1 and 2 am.
