LOTUS and OASIS Hostess/Arrival Ambassador

LOTUS is a Japanese-American restaurant and cocktail lounge where sushi, signature cocktails and a curated listening program shape the evening. Its six-seat Omakase bar offers a coursed tasting dinner by reservation, with a scripted service ritual, brief chef introductions and selected musical features.

OASIS is a Moroccan-inspired poolside destination for Sunday brunch, private cabanas and cocktails. Casablanca Hour bridges daytime service and the Sunset Lounge, where DJs and live percussion carry the evening.
