⭐ “A fantastic girls’ getaway spot—can’t wait to come back!”

Dining, Drinks & Dancing: Let the Good Times Flow

Every great getaway needs great food and drinks—and at The NASWA, you won’t even have to leave the property to find them.

🍹 NazBar & Grill

Steps from the beach and bursting with tropical vibes, NazBar & Grill is your go-to for daytime cocktails, casual bites, and good times. Order a frozen margarita or a signature Rum Punch, grab a lounge chair in the sand, and enjoy live music while watching the sun dance on the waves. It’s lakeside bliss at its finest.

🍽️ The Blue Bistro

When it’s time to elevate the evening, make a reservation at The Blue Bistro, our lakeside restaurant known for brilliantly crafted cuisine. Featuring fresh seafood, Certified Angus steaks, vegetarian options, and decadent “Hope Made” desserts, it’s the perfect place for a celebratory dinner or a girls’ night out that calls for dressing up.

💡 Pro tip: Don’t skip the dessert menu—it’s inspired by the cherished recipes of our beloved matriarch, Hope Makris.
