Where We Shoot

The beach. Secluded sand with the jungle behind it.

The gardens. Tropical green and dappled light.

Waterfront suites. If you are in one, a private start.

Sunrise or Sunset

Times for this beach on the 15th of each month in 2027.

The beach faces east: sunrise is quiet and the hour before sunset is soft.

How the Photographer Gets In

Access is simple for guests of Maroma, A Belmond Hotel. Put the photographer's name on your reservation at the front desk with the time of the session, and we meet you in the lobby. Resorts usually reserve their outside vendor fee for weddings, so a private session for a staying guest is very seldom charged, though we always confirm the current rule in writing first. Visitors who are not staying at the resort normally need a day pass; this guide explains how it works.
