Cirque hotel has a sister hotel less than a mile walking distance. They do offer a shuttle that can take you back and forth. The sister hotel has a tiki bar by the pool which offers food as well. They have a private beach with chairs and towels and a small fee for umbrella usage. Cirque is clean and they have a lovely staff.
