Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: Occupying 14 acres of garden hillside and oceanfront facing Soldiers Bay, this resort draws American and European couples and families seeking relaxation and an open-air West Indian ambience. Everyone dresses up after dark as musical tree frogs serenade and lights gleam on the bay.
Amenity highlights: The resort features two beaches separated by a slender, rocky point. A 100-yard activities beach is furnished with lounge chairs, thatch shades, and umbrellas. The other beach offers 50 yards of sand furnished with thatch shades. Between the larger beach and the point lies a 50-by-150-foot seaside promontory featuring a L-shape boardwalk furnished with umbrella tables and lounge chairs and a sunning lawn with lounge chairs and umbrellas.
A 45-foot-long freeform main pool is surrounded by a sundeck containing lounge chairs and umbrellas and features a poolside bar in a little wood pavilion. A second pool measuring 35 by 15 feet is adults-only. A third pool was added in October 2004, featuring a new bar, sundecks, and loungers.
Insider tip: At the end of a rocky point separating the resort's two beaches lies a wood pavilion that provides a private, tranquil spot for enjoying sunsets.
