Frommer's Review

This serene oasis is the island's premier resort, with a price tag to match and enough ambience and class to make St. James's Club look like a glorified Holiday Inn. Twenty-four kilometers (15 miles) from the airport on the southwest shore, the hotel occupies the most lushly tropical section of the island, in the village of Old Road, and sits on two beautiful beaches (one turbulent, the other calm). This place is for a mature old-money crowd, who like the clubby feel and the good service.

The beautifully furnished accommodations include deluxe units with king-size beds; a terrace room with a king-size, four-poster bed; and spacious suites with two balconies. The roomy bathrooms have beautiful tiles, deluxe toiletries, tubs and showers, dual vanities, and bidets. Accommodations in the newer units are more spacious, with upgraded furnishings and two double beds. The two-story suites are among the most luxurious in the Caribbean. Although at times in the midday heat you may wish for air-conditioning, ceiling fans and trade winds generally keep the rooms cool. Some guests come primarily for the superb food. French-born Christophe Blatz keeps his Continental menu limited, so he can freshly prepare and artistically arrange everything. Curtain Bluff restaurant has the Caribbean's most extensive wine selection. Although it's not a requirement, men are encouraged to wear jackets during the dinner hour in high season.

Facilities:2 restaurants; 2 bars; outdoor pool; putting green; 4 tennis courts; fitness center; aerobics; boccie court; croquet; squash court; yoga; deep-sea fishing; dive shop; kayaks; sailing; scuba diving; snorkeling; water-skiing; windsurfing; children's programs; access to computer facilities; room service (10am-11pm); massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; TV room
