What to order
Azul is the family-friendly beachfront anchor at Grand Velas — sweeping ocean views, both buffet and à la carte formats, and a menu broad enough to satisfy a group with mixed preferences. The lunch buffet is the strongest offering: sushi, tempura, pasta, pizza, tacos, and fresh grilled proteins all in one place. Al fresco tables facing the beach are the right seats to claim at any time of day.
- Fresh Grilled LobsterThe premium dinner protein at Azul — order it à la carte at dinner when it's plated properly rather than on the buffet.
- Sushi and Tempura (buffet lunch)The lunch buffet standout — well-made for a resort kitchen and the item guests flag as the best offering at Azul during midday.
- Wood-fired PizzaAvailable at lunch; thin-crust and well-executed by resort standards — the most reliable quick option on the beachfront.
- Grilled Fresh FishThe daily catch prepared simply with Caribbean herbs; the cleanest and lightest main option at Azul.
Buffet and à la carte available for breakfast and lunch; à la carte only for dinner. Buffet includes sushi station, pasta station, and grill.
