Nova
NOVA is tucked away in West Bay along the shoreline, offering a relaxed yet refined dining experience. Located on the shared grounds of DiveTech and Cobalt Coast Resort, the space features outdoor tables, a spacious bar, and—uniquely—a central pool surrounded by lounge chairs. It’s one of the most unconventional setups on island, but it works: guests often bring swimwear to enjoy a peaceful dip before or after their meal. There's also a small beachfront where you can stroll along the coast and soak in the waves and sea breeze. This is the second restaurant by the Bàcaro team, but NOVA stands out with its ‘East meets West’ concept. The menu features fresh sushi, fusion-style small plates like the Beef Carpaccio with wasabi and roasted shiitakes, and Mediterranean-inspired mains like their signature NOVA Burger with a wagyu patty. A highlight is their CI$25 Bento Lunch, offered Tuesday to Friday, which includes a glass of beer, wine, or a mocktail alongside your choice of salad or sandwich with Mediterranean–Japanese flair. Recommended picks: the Garden Salad with Grilled Shrimp or the Crispy Fish Sandwich with a side of truffle fries. Whether you're stopping in for a casual lunch, sipping cocktails by the pool, or watching the sunset over the water, NOVA delivers a memorable dining experience that blends island vibes with global flavors.
