Hotel Information: Popular with celebrating couples, Royal by Rex Resorts is the northernmost of three adjacent partner resorts along Reduit Beach. A breezy, marble-floored lobby with a peaked bleached-wood ceiling, and plush royal-purple seating heralds the style.

Insider tip: On Friday nights the town of Gros Islet features a jump up (street party) 2 km (1.25 mi) from the resort, with food and drink vendors and live music.
