Sandals Grande Antigua Resort & Spa

If you like sprawling megaresorts where everything's paid in advance and you live in a virtual walled compound with lots of organized activities, this might be for you. The older wings are low-rise, comfortable, and serviceable affairs, costing a bit less than accommodations in the newer wings, which are grandly Mediterranean in their aura. Public areas have trompe-l'oeil ceilings, tile work, and wrought-iron and masonry details. In the center of the newer section is one of the largest pools in the eastern Caribbean, whose free-form, serpentine edges encase an "island" with an oversized gazebo. If you opt for a holiday here, you'll find lots to do and a wide variety of comfortable accommodations in different price ranges.

Facilities:
10 restaurants; 10 bars; fitness center; 7 outdoor pools; 6 whirlpools; full-service spa; 2 tennis courts; watersports; rooms for those w/limited mobility
