Many Scenic guests are wine connoisseurs, so our sommeliers search the world for the finest varietals. Each evening, your experts will recommend wines to complement your meal. Whether you follow the suggestion or decide to enjoy another bottle of the wonderful Bordeaux you had last night, is up to you. Either way, you are very likely to discover a few new vintages to add to your home cellar. Your clever mixologists love to demonstrate their flair and know-how to create fabulous cocktails and mocktails. There is a choice of boutique beers and top-shelf spirits to be proud of, or you can choose from the extensive range of soft drinks, specialty teas and espresso coffees. Filtered water and bottled water is available at any time.

Plus your in-suite mini-bar is replenished daily, which means you will enjoy complimentary drinks whenever and wherever you fancy; with meals, at the bar or from the privacy of your balcony.
 
*All beverages are included except a very small number of fine and vintage wines, Champagnes and spirits.
